Seven war work organizations urge continued support for Pershing’s soldiers and sailors during demobilization. They stress entertainment and local canteen services, planning a “university in khaki” in France, and preparing veterans for civil life with education and job readiness. They pledge ongoing care from home until troops return and stability is restored.

Why you should give twice as much to support morale
A World War I era plea urges Americans to double their gifts to seven organizations to fund morale needs for soldiers. It claims a required sum of 750,000,000 cents and warns that without doubling giving, fighters may lack recreation buildings films stars libraries hostess houses and other comforts. The message links philanthropy to homefront support and victory.
