He was introduced by the Rev. E. R. Berg of the Calvary Baptist church and president of the Ministerial Union. Preceding the speaker a musical program was presented by the Santa Ana high school choir of 70 voices. Soloists were Marion George, contralto; Marjorie Johnson, soprano; Dale Duran, tenor and Carol Durrows, a soprano. Herbert G. Bickel was the director and Mary Parker the accompanist.

Suppose you said: Suppose you turned your face away... suppose you said, "I have done enough"... Suppose there were no blood centers...no plasma for the wounded...suppose there were no Red Cross rest homes...no bed for your boy when he is furloughed from the front... No "coffee and—" at the end of a long march, no cigarettes, no magazines, no welcome Red Cross clubmobiles, no books in the hospitals behind the lines... Suppose our men in enemy hands received no weekly food packages... suppose they were left to scrape along, living on alien bread...no cheering mail from home...no tie of any kind between themselves and their loved land they fought for... Suppose there were no Red Cross beside our men in every helping hand to do a mother...Could you sleep at night, with a son in the service. When you say, "Thank God for the Red Cross!" remember this...It is your Red Cross...Your bandages and your blood. Yes, and your money, too!

A RED CROSS representative will call upon you soon. And when that call comes, remember... Unless you give and give generously, the Red Cross may not meet its quota this year. Unless everybody digs down deep, it may fail your boy when he needs it most. It costs real money to collect life-giving blood for field hospitals half a world away. It costs real money to send food to your boys-in enemy war prisons. It costs real money to transplant that little bit of Baltimore or Sioux City or Pasadena—in the form of Red Cross canteens—to cities 10,000 miles away from home. Your boy is counting on you. The Red Cross is counting on you. The Red Cross is YOU! So when its representative calls upon you to help, you simply mustn't say "No." The RED CROSS is at his side and the Red Cross is YOU!
