UNITED CHINA RELIEF Inc [[image]] Lion and Ball symbol [[/image]] 1790 BROADWAY, NEW YORK, N. Y. Circle 5-4100 Cable Unichinaid October 2, 1942 Miss Lee Ya Ching 25 East 83rd Street New York City, N.Y. Dear Miss Lee: Fitchburg fell in love with you at first, second, and last sight. Many people said you were the most interesting part of the program. You made a splendid talk, and you doubtless noticed yourself tears in many eyes as you spoke. You even got me, hardened as I am to appeals. Among your many admirers in Fitchburg was a little Chinese boy, whose mother refused to let him attend the entertainment because she felt that he should not stay up so late. Mr. William J. Marlow, whom you probably remember, promised to get him a picture of you. He asked me to send him one autographed, so he could give it to the disappointed little boy. At your convenience will you send me one. Our sincere appreciation for your help. Cordially yours, Josephine Duvall Josephine Duvall, Director Writers' Committee JD/HB [[footer]] Participating agencies: American Bureau for Medical Aid to China American Committee for Chinese War Orphans American Friends Service Committee Associated Boards for Christian Colleges in China China Aid Council China Emergency Relief Committee Church Committee for China Relief Indusco (American Committee in Aid of Chinese Industrial Cooperatives [[/footer]] [[image]]?[[/image]] 148 [[left margin]] BOARD OF DIRECTORS Wendell L.
