Munroe,\nDepartment of Publicity,\nG.I.S.\nAmerican Red Cross,\nWashington, D. C.\nDear Mr. Munroe:-\nWe have written asking Mr. Waddell whether or not he would consider\nit advisable to furnish the divisions with a short trailer) giving\nMiss Delano's picture some subject matter, and words of some\nnational song which the audience would be requested to rise and sing.\nIn this way the day selected for commemoration of her service in the\nAmerican Red Cross organization could be observed quite widely. This\nwould make also a very good publicity stunt, bringing the Red Cross\n21\nagain before the public in a matter of universal news interest.\n4\nIf a trailer is not practicable perhaps slides could be supplied to\nI\nall the divisions to cover the motion picture houses direct from\ndivision headquarters. You at nátional headquarters would be able\n0\nw\nto get a so much better price on enough slides to cover the country\n-\n0\nthan we could working as separate divisions that it would seem, if\nthe thing is at all worth doing, best done from national headquarters.\nFor example, a thousand slides would cover Ohio in this division. If\n!\nthat could be taken as a.n average you would have something to work on\nin considering whether the idea would be feasible or not. We would be\nglad to hear whether you would consider this method dignified enough\nto be used in conjunction with whatever local memorial services may\nbe planned. The movies would certainly reach people who would not\nbe apt to come to the memorial services.\nm waygh (lue e.a.)\nDirector, Department of Publicity.\nMW:HC"
