1948 Finland gets the message

"A few alcoholics join weekly meetings at the home of a couple employed by the Helsinki Welfare Office. Along with "Mom and Dad," as the leaders are called, they learn of Alcoholics Anonymous when "Maybe I Can Do It Too" appears in the Finnish edition of Reader's Digest. The group soon begins to adhere to the principles of both A.A. and the Sweden-born Links Society. In years hence, Finnish groups will become connected to A.A.""
