Item 9: 5 p. w/env. Letter to Velma

Worked with the Military Base Church Group at an old medical clinic in the "old city" that used to be a missionary clinic before the government outlawed missions; Ramadan holiday has begun and her counterpart, Aysha is gone with her mother while Mary tries to figure out what to do with her other counterpart who doesn't speak English; "I've used my apt. for a training center every am. and begged every sec in the bldg. to get me stuff at the AFEX so I could operate. For 10 years this govt has been promising appropriating etc. And never keeping the slightest promise so to heck with them. I'm quite favorable to letting them stew in their own juice for awhile and see what happens."
