is far greater than the need for other
knitted articles.
No stimulation of muffler produc-
tion is necessary, as the supply is
more than able to keep pace with the
demand.
I'VE propose to purchase a suffi-
cient supply of helmets in addition to
the few that are being knitted and
turned in through the chapters to pro-
vide each man leaving for foreign
service helmet. These helmets will
be provided only when men are ready
to sail, and are not to be delivered to
them at various camps and canton
ments.
"Only those women who actually
express desire to do so should knit
helmets, as we have considered it ad-
visable to supply the demand for
these by purchasing the needful
quantity.
STRESS should be laid on the need
for sweaters.
Urge the production of less ex-
perienced knitters of sweaters and
wristlets, and by more experienced
knitters of sweaters and socks.
1--WE are finding great difficulty in
meeting the damand for sweaters,
even though we have purchased all
that are available in the market for
immediate delivery. We cannot, there
fore, urge your chapter too strongly
to increase their production of this
article.
1--WE trust your chapter will CO.
operate and increase your output Of
sweaters very materially"

About Knitting

The various Red Cross chapters
throughout the country have been
agitated about the statements In the
newspapers in which officials of the
United States have declared that the
armies are sufficiently provided with
clothing, and that the work of knit
ting wool garments the Red Cross
has been urging is entirely wasted.
To settle this question finally the sec
retary Of the Benton county Red
Cross wrote to headquarters for ex-
plicit information on this subject,
which .will be of interest for all to
know. Following is the answer:
