The Waterbury Democrat., 1940-11-26

The annual roll call of the Red Cross totals to date as announced by Mrs. Edith E. Ladd, executive secretary reached the mark of $4,58809. The chapser officers are urging support of the roll call which will close this month. The demands today are the greatest since the World War days. Needs for clothing, medicines, surgical supplies are being sent to the war torn countries of Europe. The chap ter is appealing for every subscrip- tion and donation, no matter how small, to carry on this work of the organization to relieve the sufferers in Europe. American Red Cross is playing great part in the events across and will continue as long as Red Cross mercy ships are permit ted to reach their destinations with their supplies being subjected to confiscation by the Germans for military purposes. This has not oc- cured as yet, Red Cross officials said at the annual meeting of the Waterbury chapter last month.
