We look forward to arranging with them so hat one of their appointees will take charge of the uncollected contributions in their district, and also that we may count on their coâ€"operation in arrangâ€" ing for the drive next year if itf" is necessary. "My dircetors desire me not only to thank Majorâ€"General the Honourable A. D. McRae for his inspiring leaderâ€" ship and untiring efforts and all those who worked in the campaign but the press of Canadaâ€"daily and weeklyâ€" for their patriotic and most helpful support. United we stand; united we April, the first united. War Servicos appeal held in Canada was an unqualiâ€" fled sueccess. The slogan appeal to the citizens of Canada was "The boys rely on Folks back Home" and truly the citizens of Canada have proven in a very definite and practical manner thatâ€""Our Boys" can rely on them. ‘Truly it must make "the BRoys" and all true Canadians proud to be "Canadians" angq what an inspiration the support and generosity of Canaâ€" dians to their fighting nisn must prove to our bembed brothers and sisters of the British Isles. The money will not be wasâ€"ed. "The Directors of the Canadian War Services Fund entered the campaign fully realizing the potential difficulties of bringing five or six. organizations together in a joint appeal, and also realizeq fully the terrific handicap the Campaign Committees all across Canâ€" ada farced in the shortness of time available and the limitations of weaâ€" ther conditions. . Both these factors, however, had to be considered in the light of other National War efforts governed by our FPederal Government and there was no alternative, having regard to the Nation‘s total needs. ‘"We are glad now to say that the spontansous response of the public, both in time and effort given volunâ€" tarily by those who worked in the camâ€" paign, and in the spirit and actual result shown in the monetary report, proves beyond a doubt that the prinâ€" ciple of a united campaign, and also the work of the War Service Organizaâ€" tions, met with the enthustiastic apâ€" proval of the people of Canada. "Nciwv that the campaign is nearing completion, the Directors of the Canaâ€" dian War Services Fund wish to asâ€" sure all those who supported this, the first united national campaign, that we have the broader interest in this country, as a part of the British EFmâ€" pire, in the forefront of all our deliâ€" berations and decisions. "If our heartâ€"felt thoughts were anâ€" swered another War Services Appeal would not be necessary but we must "Prepare Now." "We are assured by those who have been most active in this campaign that the next drive technically, will be much less difficult, for many reasons. Preparations will begin immediately The campaign of the Canadian War Sorvices Fund has been an unqualified sucecss, declared James Y.

An official announcement following a meeting of the directors revealed that provincial treasurers had reported total Dominion of §$6,â€" 207,961 up to the first of the week, with an estimated $325,000 still to come. Of this amount $4,007,370 has been paid in cash. The cobjective of th» campaign was $5,500,000.
