Nuno,\nAmerican Red Cross,\nc/o American Consul General,\n3\nAthens, Greece.\ne\nMy dear Miss Nuno:\nC.\nI was very glad to get your post card yosterday and em sorry to hear that you\ne\nare having some trouble with your hand. I should juige from your card to me that\na\nthat was not the only trouble you were hnving. It certainly has baen a tarrific\nexperience. Vie have been intensely interested in all the letters that have come\nto us - one of the most recent from Mies Carr almost made us weap. I'wonder how\none keeps their wits and lonowa how to RO about relieving a situation for such huge\nnumbers. It is guch a terrible thing to see suffering and not be able (O relieve\nit.\nI are more and more impressed with Mrs. Heilman - she must be a very remarkable\nwoman and also I should say a very lovable one. She has certainly accomplished a\npiece of work that I think has hardly bean equaled by enyone in the Red Cross.\nIt\nseems to me she has hnd to work so much ageinst odds.\nThore is not a groat deal to tell you of National Headquarters news that you\nwill not already have heard from Mims Johnson. I feel so deeply in sympathy with\nher over the loss of hor mother, and know that she misses you. Of course the closing\nof Bayshore is another blow, but as blows soem to como thick and fast these days we\nare learning here at Headquarters to thke these things with a certain kind of\nphilosophy which grows out of a situation which one cannot holp.\nMiss Holmes lanvos the Red Cross the first of April and Miss Helen Teal takes\nhar place as Assistant to Fox. Miss Holmon and Niss Van Duzor, as you will\nprobably remember, ara soing to. run a farm.\nThe Chairman has just returned from a trip taken with the Prosident, or rether\nhe\nwas one of the Presidential party. He succumbed, however, early in the game to\nsome elight illness and went ahoore nt one of the Florida resorts to recoperate and\nis now back at National ters.\nI had a very exciting scrap with your friend, Mr. Mulhall, yesterday, ell being\non account of a disabled nurse for whom I am struggling to get insurance. He\ncertainly does not take a very interested attitude, and roes after all these cases\nand looks for additional evidence with his legal microscope until I em almost crazy\ntrying to get information that will establish the nurse's claim. It was all so\ndifferent when Mr. Wilson was here.\n3\nMiss Nozes is in the midet of a great upsat these days, as her apartment is being\n3\npapered, painted, and the floors done ovar. Poor lady, she is living from pillar to\nof\nJ\nN"
