Loy of Roanoke Rapids noted the event would launch the 1944 All Out for Victory program as Kiwanis clubs promote community service and support for a lasting peace. Donald B. Rice of Oakland called for tribute to 12,000 Kiwanians in armed services and for stronger international goodwill between Canada and the United States. The Roanoke Rapids club observed the anniversary on January 20 at Rosemary Cafe with T. W. Mullen delivering a message from the International president.
