Red Gross WiU Start RoU Call Soon

Hie annuil Red Cross roll call will be started in a shMt t^e, with Mrs. Harry Eckert acting as chair-man of the ccHnmittee. This locality has always responded generously to this roll call, and it is hoped that, with the heightened needs for Red Cross service and the de-mand these make upon its tresis-ury, the membership this fall will be large.

Since much is already known of the clothing, medical suK)lies and surgical dressings being sent to England and elsewhere, many are asking: What is the Red Cross doing for our own soldiers and sailors?

Here is some of it: "Hie Red Cross acts as a link

between the military forces and the folks bade home. It has a $1,250,000 fund to construct Red OroBs buildings at Army camps.

Three himdred field directors md assistants are now on duty at 185 stations and hospitals, trained as advisors to soldiers and sailors with social and economic problems.

More than 10,000 Red Cross mirses, members of a large re-serve of the nation's finest regis-tered nurses, are being assigned to Army and Navy duty.

One million dollars worth of athletic and recreational equip-ment is being distributed to Army and Navy posts.

At the request of the Army, 200,000 donations of blood for blood transfusions are being collected to form a bank or reserve of blood plasma, as a national defense measure.

Service men are being trained as instructors in first aid and water safety.

No Red Cross clothing is going to our own enlisted men. Unde Sam provides all that.

Delaware County Drops • Top Place in Milk

A rise of 68.4 per cent in the value of milk received in Septem-ber at Delaware county plants ap-proved to ship to the New York marketing area over the return from September, 1940, deliveries has been announced.

Deliveries last month to the county's approved plants weighed 24,290,630 iwunds and was worth $616,982 at the uniform price of $2.54 a hundredweight.

Total net value of last month's milk in accordance with the terms and price schedule of the federal-state marketing orders for the New York area amoimts to $12,-522,695.28. September 1940's milk, induding $538,828.51 as the value of the milk marketed outside the control area at the uniform price of $1.92, paid dairymen $8,219,-482.65.

Hie difference between returns for the two months is a net gain of 40.35 per cent in gross income and is the joint result of a rise in deliveries and the 62-cent higher unifcwm price of $2.54 paid for this September's milk. The gain in deliveries was 9.1 per cent.

The boost of 40 per cent means that for the second consecutive month the value of milk payments in every major milk-producing county is hi^er than last year.

The smallest gain, one of 12.5 per cent, was recorded for Ulster coimty.

The leading counties are as fol-lows:

Pounds Value St Lawrence 29,273,369 $742,629 Delaware 24,290,630 616,982 Jefferson 23,710,301 602,241 Oneida 21,285,995 540,644
