lief committee is a cooperating an
the War Chest drive locally.
Philip Murray, president of the
Congress of Industrial Organiza-
tons, in a message addressed last
week to Clyde Mathews, president
of the Montgomery County In
dustrial Council, urged whole
hearted support by CIO union
members of the National War Fund
appeal through the Community
War Chest
"Organized labor, including our
w CLIO War Relief Committee"
he said, recognizes the National
War Fund as the instrument
through which it's gifts for the
distressed of the world, both here
at home and in allied lands, can
most quickly be put to work for
those needs with which it is most
concerned.
"This great union of services
avoids confusion of effort, needless
duplication and channels labor's
mighty contribution to the war
and peace efforts with a minimum
of Embarrassing expense.
members of the CLIO have al
ways responded willingly and gen
erously to the appeals of all who
are in need. Labor's record as a
giver to humanitarian causes is
too well known to require ex-
tended comment. The thousands
of members of the CIO in Dayton
and Montgomery County will re-
spond, I am certain, to the appeal
of their Community War Chest
with the same willingness and
generosity which have marked
their contributions in the past"
Included in the war relief and
war service programs of the IL
national agencies affiliated with
the National War Fund, which r
among the 81 war agencies in the
local Community War Chest, are
special labor projects in United
States army camps and in Britain,
Russia and China.
CLIO labor's own war relief pro-
grams financed from the Com
munity War Chest goal of $780,
900 will build and equip day
rooms in army camps, as well as
assist USO in many other ways
in it's work of keeping the morale
of our armed forces at a high level.
It includes such projects as emery
ency medical centers for indus
trial workers and clubs for mer-
chant seamen in Great Britain;
the supplying of medical equip
ment, warm clothing and vitamin
pills to Russian soldiers and CT
villains, and a number of import
ant projects to aid the indomitable
Chinese.
American labor's projects in
China include 100 mobile food
canteens which supply hot meals
for Chinese workers who are
building weapons of war in remote
mountain arsenals, thousands of
miles deep in the interior. In ad-
dition, funds supplied by CLIO
unionists are being used by the
Chinese Association of Labor to
evacuate workmen out of jap
anese-held territories in free
China.
Besides the national and inter-
national projects in the local War
Chest drive, special var emery
ency services represented in the
goal included the day nurseries
and extended school services

IF YOU remember the films

recall q certain comedian whose
antics and accent provided the
comedy relief for the war pictures.
His name is Sammy Cohen and he
opened last night as the star of
the all-new floor show at Club
Casanova.
Since his success in pictures,
Sammy has been keeping in per-
SON. dates at various theaters
throughout the country. He's also
appeared on several radio pro-
grams.
A large supporting lineup is
listed on the same bill Enter
tainers include the Three Holly

NOTHING DAUNTED


After wears Of Jungle dilemmas,
a little musical discord seemed a
mere nothing,
Consoling Ann, he said;
Don't worry, dear, we can get
YOU one and you can just learn
20 play it."
That's ALL" screamed Ann.

give like Menuhin all I'm two
weeks. They'd better shoot me,
instead OF the picture. That's
Hollywood for you. They brought
me out here as a musical comedy
singer, change my name. my
hair, my clothes, my husband
and now they expect me to show
Zimbalist how It's done.
"Why don't you get Adolph
Busch and LET him play the part
with wig. 1t would he more
believable."
AN EASY OUT
But nothing stops Hollywood
and the next morning Oscar Baum,
the noted musician and teacher,
showed up on the set and showed
Ann a few of his fundamentals,
coaching her in the proper finger
ing and some of the easy technical
points.
BY the time they started work
on the film. Ann was the only
violiniSt in America who had
learned how to look like she was
playing the violin, without making
a sound.
SOFTLY, SOFTLY
OF course. Ann would let the
bow drop on the strings and the
prop boys would run for the exit,
but Ann realizes that practice
makes perfect and she believes
that shortly she will be able TO
play so we'll no one will hear her.
