Statement for Workers in the Salvation Army Drive for War Funds 1. The drive is under the management of the State Council of Defense. 2. The funds being raised are to be used entirely for the benefit of American soldiers and sailors on the battlefields in France. 3. The work in France includes huts back of the lines where American soldiers are temporarily located, and also canteens and improvised Dugouts right up to the front line trenches. The service includes whatever seems most necessary to the soldiers under any given conditions -- meeting the actual needs of the hour. During the firing at night it includes serving hot coffee and doughnuts without charge to the fighters in front trenches who must often stand in the mud and rain for hours without food or drink except as it is thus supplied. 4. The Salvation Army workers in the war zones wear the United States Army Uniform, and the work is entirely under the control of the Military Authorities.
