appeal for whole-hearted response
to the campaign.
I'VE have all heard of the terrible
privations and hardships which
have been brought upon so many
innocent people the world over by
the ruthless enemies OF mankind
DR.. Tao-ming said. Here is an op-
portunity for all of us to help allay
these sufferings in a personal sort
Of way.
| High Purpose OF Drive.
Our contributions to this drive
for old clothing and rag salvation
will give warmth and comfort to
many Of our friends who have en-
dured with courage and fortitude
the ravages of war. Remembering
the high purpose of these contribu-
tions, all of us will want to offer

appeals
DR.. Reissig said:
To give our discarded clothing
to those who are suffering from the
ravages of war and who. through
conditions not Of their control. are
unable to purchase for themselves,
Is not asking very much from us.
The least we can do is to put forth
the effort to gather our clothing to-
gether and take it to the nearest
church. This calls for no sacrifice
but just for decent fellow feeling.
Rabbi Gerstenfeld's Plea.
Rabbi Gerstenfeld said:
The world is awaiting the light
of a new day and if we are to bring
that day near let us take every
step forward to cover the naked and
heal the suffering of the needy in
the war-devastated areas of the
world. Let us in our own commun-
ity show the example of a free peo-
pie doing our sacred duty
Salvage leaders announced yes

Heights area donated over 300
pounds of clothes and rags, which
were turned over to the Sixth Pres
byterian Church.
Churches are acting as depots
where discarded clothing and rags
may be brought. In most of the
churches, women'S organizat tions
have taken over the task Of receiving
the donations and preparing them
for proper distribution through the
Charity Collecting Agencies. Ten
per cent of all collections may be
retained by the churches for local
relief purposes.
