AMERICAN RED CROSS MIDWESTERN AREA 1709 WASHINGTON AVENUE ST. LOUIS, (3) MISSOURI November 15, 1943 Judge Frank R. Gray, Chairman, Douglas County Chapter, American Red Cross, Court House, Lawrence, Kansas, My dear Judge Gray: Attached is a list of 1944 War Fund supplies and the amount of each suggested for use in your chapter. Due to war shortages of paper stock, our area allotment of most of the War Fund supply items has been reduced. A great reduction has been made in the number of cardboard posters but this has been offset by an increase in the © quantity of paper posters, so that the paper posters will be used for general display purposes this year. These war restrictions will necessitate very careful planning on the part of all chapters. Enclosed is a copy of the “War Fund and Publicity Supplies” leaflet which gives a description and the use of each of the supply items. The attached order is intended to cover only those items listed and other items mentioned in the leaflet are not available at this time. Chapters will be notified when this material is available and orders can be placed at that time. If a War Fund Chairman has been selected, you will wish to review this list with him, and after making any necessary adjustments, please return the pink copy to this office showing any revision in suggested quantities and shipping instructions. The white copy should be kept for your records. It is essential that the pink copy of the supply order form be returned to this office at your earliest convenience in order to facilitate the prompt delivery of supplies to you. Very truly yours, Manager. Enc: Supplies Leaflet Order Form £0 Ue Ns DE. PS eScet a. 2 2 Fs ' 2 TRE Ae Ty OF GEN Bo V8
