recent addition of 5000 beds to

need for a bedside bag for each
bed. Some of these hospitals
have not received their bedside
tables and have asked that these
bedside bags be rushed to take
the place of the table for the
patients' personal belongings.
Today a request has come
from Fort Ord, Calif., for 3000
bedside bags. The local chap
ter, according to Mrs. C. E.

has accepted a quota of 120 to
be made by May 3, and asks

in this emergency by calling at

There is no comparison there."
"You think we could supply
