A Shelter for the Children in Loukovec

The segment from the 1942 Český zvukový týdeník Aktualita (Czech Aktualita Sound Newsreel) Issue No. 23 informs the viewers about the establishment of rural shelters for the children of working farmers. The expected number set up in the near future is around 1,000. Footage from the shelter in Loukovec near Mnichovo Hradiště.
