Among the organisations for helping suf- ferers in the war the Wounded Allies Relief Committee is doing a notable work. The scope of its operations in indicated by its title, and it works in the closest co-operation with the British and Allied Governments. It has placed thousands of wounded Belgians in hospitals and homes, and it extends support to a num- ber of institutions in France. A motor-amfou- lanoe unit is now on service with the Belgian Army, and a special appeal is made for help- ing forward the work in hospitals immedi- ately behind the firing line, where pro p er emergency treatment is invaluable ingaving many lives. Other features of the work are the provision of training and employment homes for the disabled, the supplydf artitfial limbwi, and the care of wounded on leaving hospital. There is no other representative organisation which asaists the sick, wounded, and crippled soldiers of all the Allies.
