My dear Miss McNamara:
I am writing to check with you our accounts in the matter of the loan
of $300 which was made to you by the American Red Cross at the time you
undertook your assignment to the Office of Civilian Defense in Hawaii.
According to our accounts the entire amount of this loan is still outstanding.
You will recall that this loan was made to you with the understanding
that it would be repaid immediately upon the receipt of reimbursement from
the Office of Civilian Defense in Hawaii, which reimbursement you received
on arrival there. As this loan was made to you nearly two years ago I am
sure you realize that this should be cleared from your record at once. The
following is a copy of the agreement which you signed on March 23, 1943,
when this money was advanced to you as a loan:
"Having been duly appointed by the American Red Cross to serve with
the emergency civilian hospitals in the Hawaiian Islands, under the
auspices of the Emergency Medical and Hospital Service of the
Territorial Office of Civilian Defense in the Territory of Hawaii, I
Marion A. McNamara acknowledge the receipt of Three Hundred dollars
from the American Red Cross which I understand to be a personal
advance to cover my travel and maintenance expenses from my present
place of employment to Hawaii. It is further understood that the
Territorial Office of Civilian Defense has agreed to reimburse me
for the above mentioned expenses and I agree to liquidate this advance
immediately upon the receipt of reimbursement from the O.C.D., and
will repay amount of check to the American Red Cross..
"
This loan should be paid to this office - The American Red Cross,
National Headquarters, Washington 13, D.C.
Sincerely yours,
Virginia M. Dunbar,
Director, Nursing Service.
