RED CROSS DRIVE

~
Atlantic Coast Line Railroad yes
terday marked the beginning Of
the intensive solicitation of gifts
for the 1945 Red Cross appeal from
the larger firm units. Yesterday,
at 5 o'clock, the Industrial, Com
mercial and Public Employe divi-
sions held organization meetings
and start solicitation at once.
The services of Red Cross at
the battlefronts, in hospitals, be-
hind barbed wire and at home
are mora urgently needed now
than e.v er BEFORE" Campaign
Chairman Robert Strange said.
Regardless of any possible turn
of war events, this urgency will
continue for many, many months.
We must meet this challenge. We
now know that wishful thinking
and cornplacency will not hasten
the end of war, but surely will
harm many OF our gallant fight
ing men. A few months ago we
saw slackening of effort due to
favorable war news. Today we see
grim determination that will find
additional expression in one Red
Cross result
