[00:20.57]a member of the Communist Party

[00:22.32]of Canada. Returning to Canada,

[01:15.15]These efforts were reported

[01:17.99]to have reduced deaths

[01:19.74]from war by up to 75%.

[01:22.04]Thousands of people owed

[01:26.19]their lives to Dr. Bethune.

[01:28.50]His bedside manner became legendary 7,

[01:31.34]and it was another

[01:33.19]measure of this man.

[01:37.90]to go on a speaking tour

[01:39.87]to raise money for humanitarian 8 efforts

[01:42.06]among the Spanish people.

[01:46.87]speaking engagements, Bethune elaborated

[01:50.16]eloquently on the desperate needs
