What, in your opinion, is the
most important thing the USO
does for servicemen?" we asked
Mrs. Sara @. Winsborough. And
without one moments hesita-
tion Mrs. WinSborough answered.:
Helping them in personal prob
lens. BY this I mean their
emotional problems and adjust
ments, for which there can be
no set nor fixed rules, but which
are just as important and neces-
sary to their welfare as setting
a broken bone or stitching an
open wound"
Often" Mrs. Winsborough
continued, "the men are helped
merely by having some one to
talk to, and even more are they
helped by finding the proper
person to talk to who can listen
to their problems and steer them
straight. They must be given
the ability to lift themselves
out of an emotional rut rather
than be made to feel that some
one else is doing it for them.
To me the opportunities for
women to help in this sort of
thing are absolutely limitless."
Mrs. Winsborough has worked
with young people all her life.
She is a widow with a married
daughter and a young son in a
nearby military school. Before
the war she was a professional
concert and radio singer and
held an important job as an ex-
ecutive in a big Chicago build
ing firm. She gave up an i'm
pressive salary to 60 into USO
work because she felt that her
experience with personnel and
her liking for people could be of
some value in the war effort.
She organized the first USO in
Biloxi, Miss, and was program
director there until three months
ago when she came to Wash
ington as program director of
the USO Club of the YMCA here.
She is the first YMCA secretary
in the history of Washington.
Smartly dressed, good-looking.
and full of ability and enthusi-
asm. Mrs. Winsborough has al
ready reorganized the YMCA
USO into thriving and very
important part of the war effort.
She will tell you proudly that
this particular USO serves 25,-
600 men a month, that all the
facilities of the YIN are open to
the servicemen swimming,
health club, badminton, bowling
alleys and the now almost usual
array of dances, USO break
fasts, sightseeing tours, etc.
Also this YIN has the first Chi
nese USO unit in Washington.
(And by the way, this unit is
teaching the servicewomen ju-
jitSu)
Mrs. Winsborough's father was
president of Stephens College,
where she received part of her
musical training. In addition
to the other things she has done
to make life interesting and help
ful-she and her daughter ran
charm clinic" and when the war
is done with and we all have
more time to think about charm
she hopes to take that up
again!

Campbell Stresses
Ties at Meeting

More information about each
other and less propaganda Is what
the Americans and British need"
declared Sir Gerald Campbell yes
terday, speaking before the Goth
Century Club at the YWCA.
"The Allies are dying for one
another" the speaker commented,
"and in the future will have to live
for and with each other
With the purpose of furthering
better understanding, the press, the
Owl, the radio and the British
Board Of Education are concentrat-
ing their efforts and already have
achieved success in arousing the
curiosity and interest of thousands
OF Americans and Britishers, he as
serted.
Prior to the war, he continued,
the British masses, instead of read
ing serious news about the United
States only read sensational stories
OF divorces and gangsters, which
gave them a perverted idea of
America. To illustrate the situa-
ton today, Sir Gerald pulled forth
copy of Listener" widely read
English periodical On the front
page was displayed an article deal
ing with differences of the Amer
ican and British labor fronts; an
editorial pertained to the entertain
ment of our troops abroad, and in
a corner was review of an Amer
ican novel.
Speakers have been provided by
Owl to enlighten ,Britishers on the
domestic life in the United States,
he continued. Twenty documentary
Aims regarding the United States
have been compiled by this agency
and are shown in British schools.
| A potent weapon in the field of
public relations is the radio to which
the British listen with interest, Sir
Gerald added. In the evening an
Enghshman may easily listen to
dramatic sketches pertaining to the
United States or tune into Bob
Hope and other entertainers.
The speaker explained how the
British Board Of Education has gone
far in making people United States
conscious. United States history Is
compulsory in both public and sec
ondary schools, he said, and when
the rule was first put into effect
Ambassador John Winant presented
set Of text books to the board.
In addition, teachers in England
take short courses on various topics,
including the geography of the Unit
ed States. the maritime history of
New England and the building of
the West, he added
The speaker was introduced by
Mrs. Cloyd Heck Marvin, the presi-
dent.

Detroit Sympathizes

"THROUGHOUT the world today the story OF
what is going in Detroit brings hope to
free men and strikes terror to the hearts of ty-
rants :. But we OF Detroit would impress human
kind at this time, not SO much with our ability to
produce war goods as with our capacity to SYM
pathize with the brokenhearted, bereft people of
the earth"
The above is taken from proclamation by
Mayor Jeffries setting aside today as day of
mourning and protest against the barbarc mas
sacre of millions of innocent civilians in AXIS
occupied lands.
Every decent Detroiter, regardless of racial
background will be glad to participate in this gen.
eral expression of sympathy and protest. 1t re-
fleets solidarity Of American opinion that must
buoy UP the spirits of the civilian victims of Axis
brutality and that, in equal measure, must beclOud
the minds of Axis leaders with the black realiza-
ton that their crimes against civilian populations
have placed them beyond human regard.
AS part Of the local observance Of this day,
nonsectarian mass meeting will take place this
afternoon in Cass Technical High School. 1t will
be addressed by eminent leaders of several faiths
1t will be worth attending by all of us.
