Korean universities are in a desperate state. All have been evacuated into crowded Pusan, and classes are held in tents if they are lucky—many are held in the open in the freezing cold. As most of the students are evacuees, they have no supplies of books or clothing, and with no chance of buying any because all supplies go to the army, they are in bad straits. If we could collect warm clothing, exercise books [unclear: and] pencils we would not only help them materially, we would in the words of the Korean delegate at General Committee, "give them oh such hope because they would know they are not forgotten and that somebody cares."—("Student", Number 2. 1953).
