Infant Mortality Soared In Western Holland Report Says
An American Relief for Holland report to Rollie Vinzant cites extremely high infant mortality in Western Holland due to long Nazi food shortages. Newborns survive about six weeks before starvation, as mothers receive scant rations of bread potatoes and thin soup. After liberation some areas lacked even allotted rations, forcing families to share scarce food with older residents hiding from slave labor. American Relief for Holland, aided by the Seal Beach War Chest, has shipped relief supplies since Germany’s surrender.
