All have been working with but the one object in view—to relieve as much distress as possible among the starving, homeless peoples of the countries that were ravished by the enemy during the Second Great War, It Is confidently believed that these organizations will continue their efforts during the next few weeks, an^ send the clothing that they collect to the regional ware­ houses that will be established by the national organization. The National Clothing Collection will take place from June 17 to June 29, and it is necessary that or­ ganization in every community be set up immediately so as to plan such a campaign as will give every family an opportunity to make its contribution. The men, women and children in the war-torn areas, almost all un­ der-nourished, must receive shoes, warm clothing, dresses, coats and suits to replace their rags, and help them to ward off the sickness which malnutrition, coupled with lack of wearing apparel, is attack­ ing them, Thousands of people, par­ ticularly women and children, are doomed to die this coining winter if they cannot get warm clothing. In many areas of Europe today there is no clothing to be had. Even the most generous gift of money cannot meet this urgent need—the contribution of Canadians must be of a more personal character, Ev­ ery family is urged to go through closets, storage boxes and cedar chests and get out every pair of shoes, every piece of usable wearing­ apparel that they can spare, for it will help to save a human life. Baby clothes are especially needed for there are none to be had in many parts pillow suits, other things If they are not forthcoming the casualties of peace will mount un­ til they exceed the casualties of war, 1 MACK ST. .
