War Rages in France
Poster with an illustration of refugees moving along a ruined street; one woman is wearing a nun's habit. Text reads: "They cannot fight & raise food at the same time. Denying ourselves only a little means Life to them. We must feed them." At the bottom center of the poster is the round seal of the U.S. Food Administration (shield with flag motif surrounded by wheat stalks). |
