Although intending to unify all efforts, the identity of other GXASI: ing efforts would not be submerg- ed but would be assisted by the planning on a national scale. uni- fied buying (in Canada by tender) and the survey as to the most needy which is being carried on by voluntary workers at present in England.

“It is our purpose. not only tc strengthen Britons physically but to give spiritual inspiration through our sympathy," Maj. Math- ieson said.

—Mr. Darrel McGuire, campaign director stated that the Fund would be raised by personal con- vaas throughout the Province m the manner of the Red Cross and asked that groups with national affiliations in this work, while sup- porting their own organizations. help the U.E.F.B. by boosting the idea of help for Britain.
