During 1946 over 20,000 children had been rescued and cured, under the treatment given. Comparing Ontario with one province in China, the speaker gave these figures: In our popu- lation of some 3,800,000 we 'had over 4,800 doctors andi splendid hospital facilities. In the Chii- nese province there were only 20 hospitals, poorly equipped and on- ly one doctor for some 260,000 people in a total population of 38,000,000. It was this condition for which funds were needed in the Aid to China Fund. But aside from that was the spectre of inflation and a dire shortage of food'. Chinese mone- tary exchange today rated one million dollars of the nation's currency the equivalent of $500 Canaddan, which in termis of pur- chasing power meant increasing prevalence of the narrow margin between food and starvation, the ability to combat disease and the funds to assemble materials to provide work and thus obviate direct relief. Added to all these drastic ma- teriai aspects was the internai political picture in which comn- munists warred with the.central government..
