The Junior Red Cross mobilizes hundreds of thousands of children in the Southwest to aid the war. City and country youths knit sweaters, collect materials for refugees, and invest returns in Thrift Stamps and Liberty Bonds while working on farms and gardens to boost food production. In St Louis the drive aims for full junior membership in every school. In Johnson County Kansas a cherry pie contest raises 2500 dollars to cover enrollment fees.
