Nebraska schools will help speed
the recovery of a large number Of
hospitalized war heroes through a
Victory ond and Stamp campaign
to sponsor one or more hospital
units at $4,000 each. DR.. Archer u.
Burnham. Education Chairman for
the Nebraska War Finance Conn.,
ittee. announced.
DR.. Burnham said that the schools
of the nation have been asked to
finance 95 thousand such hospital
units of which Nebraska's share is
1854. Army, Navy and Air Force
hospitals have arranged for a
school sponsorship panel to be plac
ed on a serviceman's hospital bed
for qualifying schools, DR.. Burn
ham stated.
At present, sick and wounded
servicemen are being returned to
this country from all theatres OF
war at the rate of IL thousand ev-
cry week and the number is stead
lily mounting. By sponsoring a
hospital unit. the school provides
what military authorities have esti-
mated is the cost of the hospital
care of a wounded service man.
When a school has completed
sales of Victory Bonds and Stamps
to equality for such sponsorship,
the State War Finance office will
make out two sponsorship panels
for each $4,000 hospital unit. One
panel will be sent directly to the
Commanding Officer of an Army,
Air Force or Navy hospital where
it will be placed on the bed of a
wounded serviceman. The other
will be sent to the school.
DR.. Burnham said that such
school sponsorship panels may
