Mrs. Stratton
Heads Red
Cross Drive

The Chairman of the East Cleve-
land Red Cross drive this year will
be Mrs. r. R. Stratton, 1885
Sheldon. Mrs. Stratton, who has
been fund worker for four years,
takes over the post in this most
critical year Of destiny.
The people of East Cleveland
will be asked to contribute $12,199
as their share in this years Greater
Cleveland Red Cross goal OF
81, ,182, ,24O.
Announcement of Mrs. Stratton' S
appointment and the 1851 goal was
made by the Branch Chairman,
Mrs. Stuart Cummins at Wednes-
day nights meeting of the local
organization.
The larger goal in the Mobilize
for Defense" campaign is due, pri-
marily, to the increased Red Cross
services to the armed forces; the
procurement of blood to meet mill
tary and civil defense requirements,
and, at the request of the National
Security Resources Board, an ex-
panded training program in first
aid, home nursing, and nurses
aides.
The success of this vital 1851
Fund depends upon the efforts of
volunteer workers in contracting
everyone early in the campaign
and upon the people of the COM
munity giving the same generous
support they have in the past.

from without and from within.
To that purpose we dedicate this
