British War Relief
So many people have been ask
ing questions about the continuance
of work for British War Relief,
it is essential that important facts
be clarified. First of all, the di
rectors of the British War Relief
Society have been in conference
with the American Red Cross and
have concluded that their func
tions in no way conflict. Nothing
that is done by British War Re
lief infringes upon the work of
the Red Cross. Secondly, Presi
dent Roosevelt’s Committee on war
relief agencies believes that Brit
ish War Relief activities consti
• a valuable contribution to the
mon cause and should continue,
he need for aid to our British
allies is as great today as ever
before and the unusual severity
of the winter calls for larger ship
ments of warm clothing for the
children and socks and sweaters
or the men in the fighting forces.
The same staff of workers who
have carried on since the inception
of the Tryon branch, is continu
ing the job with the same zeal
but without the cooperation of
the community, they cannot ex
pect to go on indefinitely. Money
is needed for the purchase of
dress material and wool and those
who donate any sum, however
small, will be contributing to the
American cause, for this is our
battle as well as Britain’s. Tryon
has established a magnificent rec
ord that brought commendation
several newspapers through
the country and it would be
tragic indeed if that record were
not sustained.
