OvercOats Sought Here
For British Home Guards.
Something new to aid Britain is
being introduced to Washington by
Miss Suzanne Rosenberg, chairman
of the Overcoat Committee of the
British War Relief, and the plan is
being received enthusiastically by
women who are leaders in aiding
England. Miss Rosenberg is here
from New York and has selected a
group of socially prominent women
to assist her.
The OVercoat Committee was in
augurated in New York in October
to collect oVercoatS for England,S
Home Guard, men who are overage
for actual war service but who work
during the day and do patrol duty
at night to warn against air raids
and invasion. Since October more
than $4,000 overcoats have been
collected in Is cities.
No Money Involved
In Committee Venture.
No money is involved in this new
to-Washington venture. for only
overcoats will be accepted by the
committee. A local department store
has agreed to collect, pack and send
the garments on to the British War
Relief for shipment to England. If
you have an overcoat to donate, new
or DID, telephone National 800 and
some one will call for your donation.
Miss Rosenberg wisely selected this
season of the year for the overcoat
collection in the Capital. for as
winter garments are being sent to
storage, there is little doubt thsS
many will find this a happy solution
to the disposal of overcoatS that are
a bit too frayed for daytime use but
will give comfort to those valiant
men of England's home defense
guard during their nightly vigil.
