THE MAIL

To the Editor of the Crimson:

Permit me to answer yesterday's Crimson editorial "What the Hell Do We Care":

Over 600 Harvard undergraduates contributed in what was only a three day drive, and which, because the Student Council refused permission, was not from door to door. Several had the notion that the money might be used for non-relief purposes. Many students, and their families have been contributing all year long to French, Finnish, Greck, as well as British relief drives, and at the year's end, their accounts, already sagging, were further depleted by the House dances. Though most of the committee feel that the Crimson is correct in assailing Harvard's miserliness, I believe every penny helps, and urge every Harvard man to continue contributing whatever he can spare to British Relief. E. Bernard Fleischaker '42,   Chairman, Harvard British War Relief Committee.
