Mme. Chiang Kai-shek ‘Grateful’ For Aid to United China Relief; Cites Need for Funds, Personnel
Times Special
NEW YORK. Julv Carter, president, and Miss China Aid council,
pressed “deep gratitude”
1.—In a recent conference with Mrs. Edward C. Mildred Price, executive secretary of the! United China Relief, Madame Chiang Kai-shek exfor the help Americans are giving the thou-
sands of Chinese war orphans under her sponsorship. She also asked that her appreciation be conveyed to members of the’
relief's care and development. “Tell them,” she said, “that what they are doing and have done for the children of China is greatly appreciated and in our struggle to keep our head above the waters, we feel confident of their support and sympathy.”
Need Funds, Personnel
took place in her suite at the Waldorf-Astoria Towers. When her visitors were seated, she came quietly into the white-furnished living room and sat down in a special chair. She was dressed in a white Chinese gown, By her calm presence and gracious manner she ghowed her visitors that she is deeply grateful for the help Amer{cans are giving for the thousands of Chinese orphans under her sponsorship. Mme. Chiang felt that conditions in the United States are very different from those in China but said that American specialists’ knowledge about children’s diseases such ps trachoma and scabies would be heartily welcomed. “Send us your best medicines. We need them badly,” she said. China's first lady paid a tribute to the “dollar-a-year” women working in her orphans’ orgnaization and then stated that the two things most needed in behalf of China's children are funds and trained pergonnel.

Ring May Mean ‘No Marriage’
What would you think of wearing a ring to indicate that you didn’t want, to get married? Claudia de Lys, who wrote “How the World Weds,” declares that in certain parts of Europe, up to a century ago, a ring worn on the little finger meant “No marriage for me!” The same ring, quick-changed-over to the first finger, meant “I'm looking around.” On the second or

LONDON, July 1--The woman who more than any other has encouraged the organization of Rritish women pilots inte an effective unit for war service has just received new recognition with her appointment as a director of British overseas airways. She is Miss Pauline Gower-—-who once taught the violin to pay her way through flying school, who is now the commandant of women in | the Air Transport auxiliary, and who looks upon flying as “a job done by the people who are qualified io do it,” whether they are women or men. The daughter of Sir Robert Gow= er, member of parliament, Miss Cower was the first woman to hold an A and B pilot's license and the first to hold a second-class navi gator's certificate, as well as a wireless and flying instructors's li= icense, Before the war she ran an | air taxi service and carried more | passengers—32,000 of them-—than any other woman.
