PAGE FOUR VARIOUS DONATIONS RECEIVED ON PLAYED IN MIAMI INITIAL DAY OF RED CROSS DRIVE (Contributed) Key West swung into its first day of the American Red Cross War Fund Drive, under the chair- manship of Isadore _Wientraub, with donations totaling $238.13. The quota for Monroe County this year is $12,600, four times the amount asked and three times the amount donated last year. Mr. Wientraub_ remind: present drive is a iy call and war fund" will be the only made by the Red Cross for #dn$ during the current year. Seventy-nine per cent of each dollar donated will remain in Key West for the.good wor« done by the Chapter here. Consequently it is up to the pub- lic to support this drive whole- heartedly. The majority of the funds rais- ed Monday were collected at the booth set up at the Post Office, under the attention for that day of Mrs. W. E. Shedd, wife of Gen- eral Shedd who has command of} Panama’s defenses, and Mrs. Ray Burns, wife of Commander Burns, who is on duty in Iceland. A booth at La Concha Hotel was established in the late afternoon and will function there all week under volunteer workers. An additional booth is‘also ready to receive your donations at the First National Bank. Mrs. Bernie C. Papy is in charge of all the booths. Mrs. W. R. Warren is in charge of the house: to house canvassing and announces that her volunteer teams will call at homes’ begin- ning Wednesday. You are urged to be generous. Do more than your share. It is one of the most worthy causes of the ‘war and we all want Key West to fill its quota.

Approximately 2600 copies are being distributed. Howard Overlin, local manager of Southern Bell Telephone and Telegraph Company, asked tele- phone users to start using the new directory at once to decrease the Possibility of getting wrong num- bers. It should be referred to on all calls where there is the least doubt about the desired number, he said. He also asked that tele- phone users look up the numbers in the directory instead of asking “Information” for them. The new book is bound with a gray cover. If the old green-cover- ed directory is not taken up at the time of the new one’s delivery, it} should be discarded because many new numbers appear in the latest issue. An important message on the front cover asks the public not to make telephone calls during or im- mediately after an air raid alarm or other emergency, as it is essen- tial that the lines be kept free for use by the authorities. Every effort is being made to see that each subscriber receives his copy, but if any subscriber does not receive a copy, he should call BERLIN BOMBED (Continued from Page One) those bombs caused so great an explosion. planes 17,000 feet in the air were rocked by it. The ministry also stated that, though the outer defenses of Berlin rimmed the sky with a barrage of shell fire from anti- aircraft guns, once the barrage had been passed the firing was far lighter than it had been dur- ing other raids on Berlin. The barrage in the city. the ministry concluded, “was not up standard”, barracks and dozen of war plants, where airplane parts and other weapons of war had been manu- factured, were completely de- stroyed in many instances, while, in other cases, the damage was so extensive it will require sev- eral months to put the plants back into condition to resume operations. to Toast Marshmallows, Huh!
