- Arab woman with two children.
- Description
- No. 1531. Tyre, Lebanon, March 1952. To Christian refugee workers in Tyre this Arab woman is known as the "Thankful woman." She appears frequently at the office door, with one, two, or three children in her arms or hanging to her skirt, seeking aid. Whatever she received food or clothing, or if nothing but sympathy for her miserable condition, she is always profusely thankful. The woman lives with her family in a water tower, has been robbed by night, nearly devoured by insects, and suffers from the perennial need of all Arab refugees hunger and lack of clothing.

- Mother and baby.
- Description
- No. 1532, Tyre, Lebanon, March 1952. Too little, too late! The tiny Arab refugee baby, shown here in his mother's arms, is now dead. When discovered by Christian welfare workers, he was already a living skeleton, his tiny body wasted from the ravages of malnutrition. Though emergency food of high nutritive quality was immediately supplied the child was already too weak to respond. There are many Arab children like these among Palestinian refugees, and it is only occasionally that Christian relief can save them, this mother, clad in Western church-contributed clothing, is now heartbroken, because the little one which had become so dear to her, especially under the care she had so desperately rendered with little means, is now gone from her miserable life.
