This includes a first-hand account by Nettie Palmer of her experiences in Spain from which she had just returned. Her daughter Aileen was with her, and stayed for two years, working as an interpreter with a British medical unit.

The Spanish Relief Committee included Maurice Blackburn, a Federal Labour MP who was disciplined for his membership of the VCAWF, Nettie Palmer, and the Communist Len Fox.
