WILLAMINA, YAMHILL COUNTY, OREGON Thursday, October 21, 1043
$2550 WILLAMINA COMMUNITY’S
QUOTA FOR WAR CHEST FUND
T h e Willamina community
will start nvxi Monday on its
drive to raise $2550 for the Na
tional War Chest Fund; that
amount being the quota assign
ed to this section for all the war
relief ugencies excluding the Red
Cross. The total national goal is
$125,000,000 and goes to sup
port 17 different agencies for
war relief work including our
own USO. In fact, the USO gets
almost one half of the entire
amount that is to be raised and
goes directly for the help and
welfare of American soldiers in
service.
Yamhill county’s quota of the
national fund is $19,142.00 and
to that has been added the wel
fare agencies of Oregon, work
ing especially for children, the
amount of $2.721.00 and $3600
for Boy Scout work making a
grand total of slightly less than
21.900,00 for the county.
The mayors of the various
towns constitute a committee for
the raising of these funds and
they have allocated the amounts
out to various towns as they l>e-
lieve is equitable.
While the campaign runs from
October 18th to November 18th.,
the campaign will not officially
start in the Willamina commun
ity until Monday, October 25th.
Chairman A. L. Newby has ap-
],ointed a large committee which
will endeavor to make the cam
paign successful but the mayor
calls attention to the fact that
this campaign is one that the
people themselves must largely
carry out without dependence on
others to help them.
Posters and folders are being
prepared and will be circulated
in and around the city and do
nors are asked to make contri
butions early and thus facilitate
the whole effort.
