A complete clothing issue for a soldier, running the supply gamut from the highest-priced identification tag, was placed on display in the lobby of the Ho fc.l Sheraton, where the federa tion met.

Major Anderson said American women have always aided their sons and husbands when it' be came necessary to fight for home and country, and history tells us that during the early days cf our republic, whole regiments were frequently outfitted with the handiwork of sisters, wives and sweethearts of the fighting men. “I am sure that the same urge that inspired those patriotic wo men of yesteryear is now at work within your own breasts, for while times havie changed, the basic emotions that motivate American men and women have not. “Today it is impossible for you to literally manufacture cloth ing and (equipment for a regi ment of men, for times have changed. We are fighting a mod ern war one that demands that every article of clothing and equipment be of standard quali ty and design.
