The response by American Jews to the Red Cross War Fund campaign is lauded in a statement issued by Norman H. Davis, Red Cross chairman, in connection with a Red Cross Sabbath which will be observed in all synagogues and temples throughout the nation on Feb. 25-26 to mark the opening of the 1944 Red Cross drive for $200,000,000.

Paying high tribute to the “invaluable help” rendered by Jews to the Red Cross in 1945, Mr. Davis emphasized that “the Jewish people of America have always responded loyally and generously to our Red Cross appeal. Now, as our 1944 War Fund appeal approaches, we confidently count on the continuance of this response.”
