URGENT NEED FOR CLOTHING Editor The Mountaineer: If you have space, will you print the following: Herbert Lehman, ex-govcrnm- oi New York State, is now chairman of rehabilitation for the nations of the world. He is asking that Americans donate 150 million pounds of "used and usable" cloth ing and supplies, to comfort Hie millions of struggling, homeless refugees of Europe. Mis commit tee calls for infants' clothing, children's apparel, things for youth and grown-ups: sheets, tow els, pillow cases, quilts, blankets, comforts, bed spreads, shoes, Imad wear that can be packed easily, yard goods in lengths of from one yard to an indefinite length A lady came last week contri buting a coat-suit which had hccii brushed, sunned ami mended There is much wear left in that suit for some refugee. The lady remarked: "I have just finished reading 'The Kobe' by Houghis and since then there lias been no room in my home for anything that is not being used. It is going to some one who can use it. U is the first time in my life I realiz ed it was a sin to store things in the home when others were suf fering and needing them." I hope the things that arc con tributed by Waynesville citizens and those living nearby, wii! be in abundance and very serviceable. Let us not be like a wealthy huh in California who phoned tin- ser vice department to come get a trunk of clothing. A young m.m social service worker, a college graduate and specialist in his field, was delighted to send a truck for the clothing. When it came in and he was inspecting it. lie found every button had been cut off. He grunted in amazement and said, "I wonder if she thinks the receivers can go without but tons? I am afraid our rich lady contributor will find herself un buttoned when trying to enter Heaven." I know each organization in Waynesville will work very hard to put this "used and usable" clothing campaign over. These or ganization are depending upon each one of us to contribute all we can toward helping clothe the bombed-out wanderers of Europe. Thank you, Mr. Editor. MRS. J. COLV1N miOW'N. President of American Legion Auxiliary.
