MONTGOMERY COUNTY

To tens Of millions the worlds
worst war is over, but there is an
other battle that has just begun,
that of picking up the pieces of
shattered world and fashioning
new brighter one. Among the
agencies that will necessarily be
in the vanguard of the rebuilding
process is the American Red Cross.
Mrs. Edward H. Helmuth, Chair
man of Volunteer Special Services,
urges all volunteer workers to
continue their services. Many
families must be helped in their
readjustments. Many veterans will
return to their homes in need of
guidance. There is still a shortage
of doctors and nurses. The Junior
Red Cross movement needs to cons
tinue, for upon the next genera
ton will fall the task of keeping
alive the humanitarian principles
that characterize the Red Cross.
Thus the American Red Cross
and your local Branch looks to its
job ahead and to it's faithful and
enthusiastic volunteers.
Special Recognition
Special insignia for "meritorious
personal service since January 1,
1910, will be presented by the
American Red Cross at the end of
the War to active wartime volun-
teers and paid workers in its CRAP
tiers throughout the country, ac-
cording to an announcement by
National Chairman, Basil O'Conor.
Red Ribbon bar will be given to
volunteers with IL months service
without regard to hours given. To
the bars will be added silver
stripes denoting one or more units
of 500 hours service, and gold
stripes denoting 5000 hours. Vol
unteers with a minimum of 200
hours win receive certificates
signed in facsimile by President
Truman and Chairman O'Conor.
All certificate holders may wear
the new insignia, in the form of
pins for women and buttons for
men, which bear the inscription
"World War II" below the familiar
Red Cross.

is finally won we shall see a

Great changes in our daily
lives are in the offing. The peo-
pie of America will be required
to devote more and more of their
time to the war effort. We can
not achieve the goal of a ten
million man army and the
worlds greatest air force and
navy without complete upset
of normal activities. To that
end the people are ready to dedi-
cate themselves = fully - COM

SEPTEMBER 1914
With conditions as they are
in Germany who is there-other
than Hitler-who can ask for an
armistice on the unconditional
terms? 1t looks as though the
American, British and Russian
armies will have to occupy all of
Germany and set up form of
government just as will be the
case in the satellite countries.
1t also begins to appear as
though the Nazis (who must
recognize imminent defeat) are
doing their utmost to hold back
the Russians while retreating
before the American and Brit
ish at a record-breaking pace.
1t seems reasonable to assume,
as has been pointed out in this
column before, that Hitler and
his associates as we'll as the
German people themselves would
much prefer to
Fight run by the Red
For avoid being over
Freedom Army. They
know full well
that the Russians are bent on
returning to the German popu-
lace some of the outrageous
treatment which was meted out
to the stricken areas of Russia.
It stands to reason that the
end for Germany is in sight.
Even Hitler, unless he is
completely mad, must know that
his time as a despot is nearing
an end.

SEPTEMBER : 1910

r AM DELIGHTED that the
agreement delivering fifty de-
stroyers to Britain is completed.
Assuming that our naval experts
approve, l should like to see
more naval vessels placed at the
disposal of England. And l
should like to see enough air
planes sent her from this coun-
try very soon to give her undis-
puted control of the air. This
would give England an oppor-
tunity to take the offensive and
once she has enough reserve
strength to do that Mr.. Hitler's
Waterloo" will appear on the
horizon and new day will dawn
for humanity.
Furthermore, we want a COM
plimentary ringside seat at the
final peace conference and, with
all we have at stake Individually
and as nation, we'll find that
unless England is victorious
there probably won't be any
peace conference.

The women, Mrs. Frances

raiding party that crashed into
the house at 7416 Gerald avenue
(known as the Happy Hour
club where the industrious girls
resided.
According 10 officers the wo-
men went off duty in the nearby
tank plant at midnight daily and
then rushed right over to the
house where they donned aprons
and set about operation of the
informal saloon. The raid, made
at 2 a. m, found large assort-
ment of liquors, wines and beers
in stock and several tables at
which Is persons were idling
congenially after having COM
pleted their war workers duties.
The fact that the place was
operating after hours was not,
Prosecutor Wilbur F. Held said,
the only offense Of which the
women were guilty. They had,
he said, utterly neglected to OBJ
tain state liquor licenses.
