Fix this textAN OPEN LETTER
Fix this textTO EMPLOYERS AND EMPLOYEES IN INDUSTRY
Fix this textLadies and Gentlemen:
Fix this textRecently I asked the whole of the Trades Union Executives of New
Fix this textSouth Wales to join me in an expression of broad patriotism. The idea
Fix this textwas to establish a “Workers’ Penny-a-Week’ ’ contribution scheme for the
Fix this textRed Cross, much on the lines of the phenomenally successful organisation
Fix this textsponsored by the British Trades Union Congress Council, and now
Fix this textembracing 3,000,000 workers in Great Britain.
Fix this textThe response by our Australian Trades Unions was really magnificent.
Fix this textNot one Union opposed the plan; the great majority pledged their utmost
Fix this textco-operation, and some of their executive committees, although I had not
Fix this textasked them for a donation for the Red Cross, enclosed substantial cheques
Fix this textwith their promises of support.
Fix this text“Test” letters sent out at the same time to a small list of names
Fix this textselected from the thousands of employing firms in the metropolitan area
Fix this textdisclosed a ready willingness to facilitate the scheme—which is purely a
Fix this textvoluntary one —by allowing honorary collectors from among their employees
Fix this textto manage the work of collecting.
Fix this textWith this gratifying demonstration of unity of purpose fresh in my
Fix this textmind, I have no hesitation in urging all firms to set the seal of encourage-
Fix this textment on their employees’ efforts by themselves subscribing liberally to the
Fix this textRed Cross Appeal. Our need is urgent!
Fix this textWe have been greatly heartened by the wonderful result of Red Cross
Fix this textDay and the Queen Competition, but this is not enough. We need the
Fix this textsupport of all Australians and are confident that Australians will respond
Fix this textgenerously so that the great work may go on.
Fix this textMay we count on your direct donation and active co-operation?
Fix this textYours faithfully,
Fix this textHON. DIRECTOR, RED CROSS APPEAL.
Fix this textP.S.-—On behalf of the Red Cross Society I have to thank the Kensington Bowling Club, /
Fix this textKensington, N.S.W., for their valuable help in defraying the cost of the above space.-- '
