Carpenters Sent 30
Million Free Cigarettes
To Overseas Forces

Indianapolis. President William L.
Hutcheson announced that the Inter
national Brotherhood of Carpenters
and Joiners Of America and its men,
bers had contributed $4,000 for the
purpose of sending more than 80 mil
lion free cigarettes to members of the
armed forces overseas.
In announcing discontinuance of the
cigarette fund now that the war is
over, Mr.. Hutcheson said the union
had received more than 1920 cards
and messages from servicemen ex-
pressing appreciation for labor's gifts.
He added in a communication to local
carpenters unions:
"In providing 80 million free ciga-
rettes, our Brotherhood achieved an
enviable record. Few, if any ,organi-
cations in or out of the labor move
ment can tie such record. Certainly
every local union, district or state
council that contributed to the ciga-
rette fund can feel justly proud.
"At the close of hostilities, all mo-
neys remaining in the fund were used
to provide free cigarettes for the boys
convalescing in our military hospitals.
A monthly y-month recapitulation of
cigarette fund receipts and expendi-
lures has been presented.
''In closing, let me again, on behalf
of the general office, express sincere
thanks to all local unions, district or
state councils that participated in the
fund and helped to make it notable
success. The response was magnificent
and genuine tribute to the loyalty,
patriotism and generosity of our
membership. am proud of the results
achieved and each and every one of
you can feel the same"
