PLEASE REPLY TO:

F. L. SCHLAGLE
CHAIRMAN FOR NAVY DAY
OCTOBER 27, 1945
LIBRARY BUILDING
KANSAS CITY 16, KANSAS

TO NAVY DAY CHAIRMEN:

We appreciate your cooperation in accepting the Chairman-
ship for the Navy Day observance in your county. I am enclosing
a booklet entitled, "Suggestions for the Observance of Navy Day
for use in your activities, It contains many fine ideas for the
celebration of Navy Day and I believe it will prove valuable in
the planning of your programs of action.

Window displays of war paraphernalia and souveniers have
proved very successful in creating interest and it is suggested
that this plan be used again this year. Posters and window cards
will be sent to you from the Navy League in Washington, D. C. in
the near future.

I would suggest that you announce to your local paper or
papers your appointment as Navy Day County Chairman and furnish
them with information concerning your plans for the observance
of Navy Day, asking them for their full cooperation. I would
appreciate receiving two copies of all publicity appearing in
your local papers.

As soon as I have acceptances from all the County Chairmen,
I will have stationery sent to you for use in this work. Navy
Day Leaflets for distribution will also be forwarded to you
within a short time.

Yours very truly,

Navy Day Chairman
for the State of Kansas
