War Fund and Roll Call Amount
Announced

E. T.. Benson, president of Eu-
reka Chapter of the Red Cross, mas
received letter from Red Cross
headquarters announcing that the
quota for Eureka and vicinity Gall
of North Lincoln County, is set at
81. $50 for the War Fund and Roll
Call. Community quotas will be
announced later. Have you loved
ones in the service who are finding
Red Cross services available? Then
you will want to show your APP
probation by making donation to
show the measure of your thankful
ness. Have you loved ones who Tor
some reason are not being mus
tered into service and are beng al
lowed to continue civilian life.
Then you will, even more, wish to
show the depth of your apprecla-
ton. Are you one of the lucky per-
sons who is allowed to stay at
home and continue enjoying the
glorious privileges of peaceful
life? Then you will surely wish to
open your purse strings and give IN
sacrificial measure to show how
much you appreciate that privilege
Or are you now working in the de-
| Tense industries of our country
earning the enormous wages to sup
/ ply our war machines? Then do not
| forget that the home folks have the
largest quota in their history TO
meet and you will surely wish 10
share with them.

Dear Mrs. VI. =. r.:
Designs for service flags and

have been approved by the sec
rotary of war. under authority
of an act of Congress.
Similar i'm general 10 those

designs consist of blue or gold

star represents an individual
from the immediate family
or n member of an organization
serving in the armed forces OF
the United States during the
current war. 4 gold star en-
bossed on larger blue star IN
the present design symboii2es
an individual killed or dying
while serving honorably.
Members of an immediate
family include father, mother,
wife. son, brother, sister, hus-
oand.
Organizations are defined as
churches, places OF business,
schools, clubs, fraternities, so

,""The people of North Carolina

urgent need for conservation OF

He added:
F.; with the war approaching a

ing, however, that tn e meeting
should take place so soon after

"Since the Moscow conference,
the situation on the whole has; not

eff a meeting, nevertheless, has

the Moscow conference brought no
agreement, and the Moscow COM
munique drought nothing but ap
attempt to give the illusion of
agreement"
Contrary to. this German view.
the affirmation of solidarity among
the three leaders of the United
Nations is expected alone to con-
stitute one of the greatest accom-

statement to the German peo-
pie of the treatment they might
expect if they aid in shortening
the war by throwing out the Nazis.
