Chinese evacuee says hostility toward Americans unfounded
Mrs. John Henderson evacuated from Shanghai says Chinese people she met showed no anti American sentiment. The Henderson family, with sons Robert 16 and John 13, left Shanghai in late November as civil war threats grew. They praised the navy evacuation, noting 800 aboard with many children and sailors giving up cabins for families. They arrived in Iowa last week and plan Christmas with relatives before returning to West Liberty.
