Labor, business, professional men and women, housewives and students of Los Angeles and eighteen neighboring towns and unincorporated communities are mobilizing for an all embracing War Chest which will appeal this fall for the necessary funds to service the material, medical ant{ psychological needs of three major war fronts-military, home, and the United Nations fronts.
Despite heavy pressure of business and war activities, scores of civic and industrial leaders have accepted the honor and added responsibility of heading the newly created Los Angeles Area War Chest. President of the board of directors is Harvey S. Mudd. General chairman of the forthcoming campaign is P. G. Winnett.
Included in the united War Chest appeal are sixteen major war related causes for civilian and Allied war front relief and the American military front; also the 92 hialth and welfare agencies of the Community Chest which prcr tect the home front in the dislocations of war as well as in peacetime.
War Chest agencies supplying Allies with food, clothing, shelter, medical supplies and ambulance units, so far as distribution permits, are the Belgian War Relief Society, British War Relief Society, French Fund, Friends of Luxemburg, Greek War Relief Association, Norwegian Relief Fund, Queen Wilhelmina Fund, Polish War Relief Inc., Russian War Relief. United China Relief. United Czecho-
On the American military front of the united War Chest appeal are the United Service Organizations which provide homes-away-from-home for servicemen and women and send "Camp Shows" everywhere. Also included are agencies that provide rest homes and convalescent centers for the merchant seamen who convoy supply ships through enemy waters. In the War Chest, too, is the War Prisoners Aid Committee which keeps American and Allied prisoners of war in touch with the outside world, through its international representatives from neutral countries.
Declaring that 50,000 volunteers are needed to carry the whole story of the appeal to everyone, Chairman Winnett urges:
"The united War Chest is a tremendous service appeal that can not be measured by a slide rule. Whatever we can do through it to shorten the war even for a few days or hours will play a momentous part in the nation's on-tovictory program.
"Offer your services now, by telephoning TRinity 6441 or calling at War Chest headquarters on the ground floor of the Van Nuys building, at fr4 West Seventh street."
