At Norway until the British left

"In one day we were attacked

came over with Is or 50 planes

had so many small holes In ms
from shrapnel that we were re-
named Inns Pepperpot until we
plugged them with wood plugs.
Then with NIL these plugs stick

Continuing, the captain said:
I'VE got attention every day
and at night sneak raiders
came over. Although we know
we got three bOmbers, severely
damaged Ave and probably many
others In cooperation with the

Another heartwarming case Is
that of the woman who wrote that
her. husband was now in war
production Job and that they were
IN position to reimburse the
department for the relief given
her mother.
She asked the amount granted
and was told il was $123. Her
checks totaling this amount were
received within two months.
"A father of two children walked
into q district office and paid
$34.10 for relief he received four
years ago.
Scrapes Up Money
s1fs been bothering me ever
since, but this n the first time
could scrape the money to-
gether," he explained.
Most moving was the case oil
the couple, both well past go. who
are paying $40 monthly out of his
$50 monthly salary as night
Waterman TO write of the four
years of relief extended them.
The watchman's case like all the
others is one of voluntary repay
ment.
In another instance woman
walked into the main Office, asked
how much she owed and handed
over the $76.02 she had received
as a reliefer.
Recently a letter from Texas
enclosed SIPS for hospital bill
and a brother of hospitalized
INDECENT gave $40 with the expla-
nation he wanted TO pay at least
a little.

of Families on Relief

They are convinced that OF the
approximately $500 families get
ting full relief in Detroit probably
not more than 1000 boast an
employable head.
Likewise. they admit that In the
past few years they have heard
lots of relief applicants impulslvely
promise that some day they would
repay their city in cash for tidiRs
them over the tough spots.
Promise Comes True

promise come true.

Pleasant Experience
Occasionally, however. we
haye the pleasant experience Of
some conscientious recipient re-
turning money TO the depart

Outstanding is the case OF thu

TO apply for relief for himself, hi!
