According to the statement Issued - by 1 Dr. John R. Mott, 1 Director ; v General of the United War Work Campaicn. the total amount to be raised during the week of Norember 11th is $170,&0O,000, filed by the I ! War Department, approved by the President. The fund will be administered by the Government Director for .the seven recognised War Work Agencies,; the Y. M. C. A., Y. W. aA National Catholic War Work Council (Knights of Columbus j,' Jewish Welfare Board,. War Camp Community Service, American Library Asso- elation and the Salvation Army. "The amount Is the largest ever asked as a gift from any people : in the history of the world," said Dr. Mott '"'Viewed as a total sum,' r.it seems gigantic, but divided by the four million men who will be under arms in our army and navy during the period it Is expected to cover, you find that it means less than 15 cents a day per man. Surely there is no Father or Mother or friend of a soldier in this country .who will say that 15 cents a day is too much to spend on his church, his home ' over there, his library, his theatre and his club. The President summed up the whole appeal in a recent letter in which he spoke of the work of these seven great agencies as "of vital military importance. He had in -mind the fact that their activities are largely responsible for the mainte nance of the splendid morale of our forces. There -has never been in history so spectacular an example of the extreme importance of morale as is now being presented on the Western front. The forces that confront each other there are not widely dissimilar in - numbers or ; equipment, yet one army is constantly withdrawing and the Other irresistibly mov ing forward the difference is spelled in the single word, MORALE. "Napoleon said that 'morale' is as other factors in war as three to f one! General Pershing, in a recent letter, commenting on the work of the agencies, quoted with approval the statement of on of hla eoioei : who said: 'Give me nine men who have a hut to spend their evenings in and I will have a better fighting force than ten men would be without if ' r jIf it is-worth $24,000,000,000 to fceep our boya under-arms next year, surely it is worth $170,000,000, and more, to add 10 to their fighting If it brings victory ! 10 nearer. ' This is the appeal of the seven Unit ed War Work agencies to America, and particularly to those four mil lion homes where service flags fly, and we know what America's an swer will , be:" Report .of the Condition of the PEOPLES BANK & TRUST CO. at Tryon, in the-State of North Caro lina,, at. the close of business, Novem ber 1st, 1918.
