A fully-equipped field ambulance was presented to the Canadian Red Cross yesterday by the Toronto branches of the Jewish National Workers Alliance, which are holding their twenty-fourth annual general session here.
A crowd of several thousand people witnessed the presentation ceremonies, including Jewish leaders and members of the Canadian parliament and the Toronto municipal administration. A special message was read from Mayor Conboy of this city. Louis Segal of New York, general secretary of the Alliance, stressed the contributions the organization is making to the war effort in both Canada and the United States and cited the hundreds of its members who are now in the armed forces of the two nations.
