Lenawee One of 46 Reaching Fund Goal In Michigan Drive Lenawee is one of 46 counties in Michigan "over the top" in the War Fund campaign in which 55,768.077 has been contributed to the National War Fund, according to word received by H. A. Fee, president of the Lenawee County Patriotic League from ard C. Lawrence, president of the Michigan United War Fund, Inc.

The total is 100.3 per cent of the quota and while the excess is a very small margin the remarkable part of it in the eyes of officials is that 46 of the 81 counties in the state made the record possible. 'Those included in the benefits of the fund are in all parts of the world." said Mr. Fee today. "They include men and women in form. merchant seamen, prisoners of war, victims of Axis invasions and men.

women and children who have escaped from the terrors of Axis occupation and taken refuge all over the world." Largest portion of the credit for success of the campaign is given by President Lawrence to the volunteers who served on county committees. Counties are urged to check in with hitherto unreported contributions or overages unreported. "As we move closer to victory," said Mr. Lawrence, "the demands for the services of the agencies which look to the war Fund for support will increase tremendously." A special tribute was paid by Mr. Lawrence to the AFL and CIO leaders who interpreted the appeal of the War Fund to their members.
