HOW TO RALLY AFTER ILLNESS
Lightap ver.tilation and satis tation problems do not mise these well-equipped shelters, but the dimeulty of keeping up ap pearances is urgent when you jeb depends on it.
This new slant on the shelter question was ruised when Miss Ellen Wilkinson, Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Home Security, called a conference tif social welfare authoriues to dis cuss shelter problems.
Something on the lines of the American "dresa casy" service was put forward as the answer. It was suggested that voluntary organisations might open tres where office workers could have a bath while their clothes were pressed and their shoes polished.
