BRITISH WAR AID
KNITS AND SAVES
TO HELP BRITAIN
WORK OF RELIEF SOCIETY NOT
IN CONFLICT WITH THAT
OF RED CROSS

Confusion concerning the work Of
the British War Relief society and the
American Red Gross was clarified by
Mrs. Cleveland Hall. chairman OF the
British War Relief society OF Great
Falls.
The American Red Cross co-operates
with the British Red Cross and extends
its aid principally to nonccmbatants
and persons injured in air raids, Mrs.
Hall said.
The British War Relief society is CO.
operating with about 400 government
authorized relief societies in Great
Britain.
Fire Fighters Helped
These societies. with the War Re
lief society, extend necessary help to
families and fire fighters, the latter.
due to air raids, being one Of the most
dangerous occupations In England.
The societies maintain feeding units
and ambulances. Committees OF the
War Relief society in the United States
maintain knitting units and supply
yarn, needles and instructions to those
who desire to "knit for Britain" Mrs
Hall said the knitted goods was sent
mainly to the army, navy and royal
air force.
The British War Relief society &C
cepts cash contributions, maintain
pennies for Britain stations. and also
collects warm. durable clothing. Be-
cause of lack of shipping space cotton
clothing is not sought by the society.
Cash and clothing may be sent d.

 SPACE NEED HERE
Matter Is 10 Be Called 10 Legislatures Atten-
 lion by Club

Members of the Juneau Rotary Club voted today to urge that the Legislature look into the need of Territorial office space in Juneau.
 Proposing the motion, Keith G. Wildes said additional space was ne cessary. He said Government offices are now spread all over town, with some in the Assembly Apartments, Baranof Hotel, Juneau Hotel, Shat tuck Building and on Willoughby Avenue
 pr. w. w. Council seconded the motion, declaring that the time was getting short for Juneau to do some thing about it's future. Several gov ernment agencies have passed Ju- neau up and many persons are leav- ing town at the present time, he said, with the result that every merchant and businessman will suffer.
 For Future
 This is going to affect you young fellows and affect your children . br. Council said. Some day the AL aska Juneau will have that gold mined out, and there won't be any thing left here unless we do some thing now"
 The doctor said that putting up new building here would require the passage of Territorial tax bill and for that reason would be up against a strong lobby Many men will oppose it because their princi- pal source of revenue is from corp orations whose taxes would be affect ed, he declared adding that it was nevertheless imperative that build ing with additional space be con- structed at the present time.
 A motion by H. L. Faulkner to hold the matter over for one week was voted down, after which the Club voted for Wildes' motion.

PRECEDENT FOR FARMERS

In a recent address, President
Fred H. Sexauer of the Dairymen's
League Cooperative Association of
New York, likened the present
farm situation to that of World War
l.
At that time, he observed, dairy
farmers banded together-they or
ganized. A war was raging in Eu-
rope and farmers costs were going
UP. Now another war is raging in
Europe. Step by step we are going
down the same path we followed
over 21 years ago.. :. The need
for organization is greater than
ever"
The marketing cooperatives of
which the Dairymen's League was
a pioneer in the great Eastern milk
shed, are and will continue to be
the farmers most effective allies
in the fight to kee pagriculture go
ing on an equitable basis with all
other national groups, in World
War II. These organizations are the
farmers spokesmen They repre-
sent him in all the manifold prob
lens of prices, smarkets; wages,
taxes, etc., which constantly arise.
Upon their success the hopes for
the future of millions of farm fam
lilies are based.
