AWVS Squad
Kept Healthy by
First>Aid Staff
Miss Mary Parsons
And Her Aides Watch
Out for Night Shift
By Frances Lide.

By Frances Lide.
All the girls on the night detail Of
the American Women's Voluntary
Services rescue squad hold down
office jobs during the day.
But in spite of their strenuous
schedule they keep fit as fiddle" "
thanks to the watchful attention OF
Miss Mary Parsons and her corps OF
II trained assistants who staf1 a
first-aid station each evening at the
AWVS headquarters.
The nightly drills with the two
AWVS ambulances and occasional
emergency calls take their toll in
sore muscles and minor injuries.
And that's where Miss Parsons
comes in.
In fact, she entered the picture
early In the AWVS program, feeling
that her contribution to the war
effort should be looking after the
health of these youngsters, as she
calls the night members OF the
rescue squad.
A registered nurse who has made
her home in Washington since 1910,
Miss Parsons has worked with sew
eral hospitals and is now In
specialists office. Needless to say,
her years of experience fit her to
cope with any emergency not de-
manding doctors care.
Her first step was to organize the
first-aid station and a staff of as
sistants-all trained in first aid.
In the small room at AWVS head
quarters, which has been equipped
for the purpose, the night volunteer
workers find cots where they may
rest up after a strenuous ambulance
run or other physical exertion.
Better still, first aiders" are always
on hand to massage sore muscles,
treat a bruised shin or apply hot
water bags when bodies are chilled.
I'VE don't coddle the girls" Miss
Parsons says firmly. Il tell them
they have to be tough to hold down
their jobs. But we do pay lot
of attention to preventive methods
trying to ward off colds and looking
after small injuries before they be-
come troublesome"
With hazel eyes and curling gray
hair, Miss Parsons has a sense OF
humor and a quiet air of compe-
tence that have helped to make her
favorite with the AWVS night
shift.
And it probably was due to her
winning personality that the AWVS
had such luck in obtaining its
necessary first-aid equipment.
When the station was being or
ganized Miss Parsons asked a physl-
clan to make out list OF desirable
articles and then took 1t to Con-
necticut avenue pharmacist for an
estimate on the cost. Looking at
her with a twinkle in his eve, the
pharmacist inquired if she had come
"a "a-begging." She hadn't, of course,
but the full list of supplies was sent
to the AWVS headquarters with his
compliments.
Miss Parsons, who holds the title
of lieutenant in the rescue squad
under Capt. Alice Fowler, gives all
the credit for the success of the
first-aid station to her staff of as
sistants. At least two are on duty
each night, she pointed out, with
six called in for emergency duty.
Her assistants are Mrs. Mary
Jones, Mrs. Julia Boyden, Miss
Grace McEldowney, Miss Crystal
Hall. Miss Ruth Holmes. Miss Mabel
Stocks Lager, Miss Charlene Roland.
Miss Margaret Mulholland, Miss
Alyce Gunther, Mrs. Esther Fred
erick and Miss Kathryn Pickett.

Saws Christian
World Will
Aid Jews

New York (JPS)-Before an
audience of 5000 persons attend
ing the Third Seder" sponsored
by the Gewerkschaften Campaign,
Senator Gilbert Thomas of Utah
declared that the Christian world
will aid the Jews to establish their
own state and that the United
States holds itself responsible for
freedom and justice everywhere.
The Senator, noted friend of the
Jewish people, also stressed the
fact that the Passover was sad
one for Jews the world over. He
mentioned the Struma tragedy as
an example of the misery expert
enced by Jews throughout the
world.
David Ben Gurion, chief of the
Jewish Agency Executive, also
spoke, and said that Palestine
gives to the Jews an inner free
dom which cannot be obtained
elsewhere.

.Nazis Make Efforts
To Incite Anti
Jewish POgrOms

MOSCOW (JTA)-Nazi author
tiles in the occupied Ukraine, in
addition to slaughtering thous-
ands of Jews, are seeking to in
cite the Ukrainian population to
anti-Jewish pogroms, according to
reliable information released here
this week.
The information which was
brought to Moscow by Soviet par
tisans who found their way here
from the Ukraine reveals that the
Nazi occupation authorities called
a convention" of Ulrainians in
the city of Zhitomir at which Nazi
officials delivered melting anti
Jewish speeches and made declar-
atoms aiming to win the conf
dence of the Ukrainian popula-
ton. They were supported in their
anti-Semitic addresses by anti
Soviet Ukrainians who were
brought from Germany and Slo-
vakia. The speeches, however,
were coolly received by those who
were forced to attend the com
vention."

The trial of Policy will take
place at Indianapolis, the warrant
for his arrest having been issued
at Noblesville, Ind, where, last
week, the hatemongering GaIilean
was suspended. The publication
of the paper is one of three
charges preferred by United
S states Attorney B. Howard
Caughran at Indianapolis. If con-
victed, Policy is subject to pos
sible sentence of 20 years in pris-
on, $4,000 fine, or both.
Following his arrest, the anti
Semitic declared in Indianapolis
that II don't know a thing about
this" referring to the charge of
sedition. He discussed his theo-
ries of anti-Semitism and offered
his "cure" for the Jewish prob
lem" He said he absolutely and
definitely would not" treat the
Jewish problem" in the United
States as was done in Nazi Ger
many. "The happier solution"
he stated, would be to have one
city in each state for Jews. Let
them live there and run it and
have their own culture"
About the Nazi Reich, Policy
asserted that Hitlerism was fine
for Germany. 81 know what those
fellows were up against before
Hitler took over. And if we have
initiation here We'll be in the same
boat. I believe that what Hitler
is trying to do is set up a United
States of Europe to do away with
tariff barriers and racial preju-
dices."
Declaring that if indicted on
charges of sedition he would
plead innocent, Policy said: There
hasn't been damn thing in the
magazine (The Galilean) that
Boake Carter, Iron Pants John
son, Father Coughlin and many
others haven't also said"
From his headquarters at Ashe-
vile, N. c., where succession of
anti-Semitic sheets was published,
Policy had organized the Silver
Shirts, one of whose aims was to
introduce into American legisla-
ton regulations for the handling
of Jews similar to those instituted
by Hitler in Germany.

Axis Radio Uses
Passover For Anti
Jewish Propaganda

LONDON (JTA)-The Axis ra-
dio stations utilized Passover week
for conducting violent anti-Jewish
propaganda. The attacks, which
surpassed anything yet carried by
the German and italian radio sta
tons, were directed this time not
against the Jewish race but a.
gainst the Jewish religion.
The Manchester Guardian, dis
cussing the situation in the Near
East, attempts to answer the
question of whether the German
military command can count on
effective support on the part of
the local population in case of an
offensive on Syria and Palestine.
The paper says: "Only in Pales-
tine is there a, compact, resolute,
tough people who are anxious to
place all their resources of men
and talent at the disposal of the
Allies, because their cause is the
cause of the Allies. But we are
discouraging the Jews by choosing
to believe against all facts that
we can win the cooperation of the
Arabs by sacrificing the real CO.
operation of the Jews"
