Big War Work Drive Is Started
Nebraska organizes a nationwide appeal to raise 2 million dollars for the United War Work Campaign set for November 11 to 18.

The aim is to sustain soldiers on battlefields and in camps as troops return home, avoiding multiple drives by uniting activities, an idea urged by President Wilson.
