FRENCH ALGERIA. 1912. AIRPLANES FOR THE ARMY. Commune of BIRMANDREÏS (Bir Mourad Raïs, south of Algiers), March 20, 1912. Appeal from Mayor Paul CHEVALIER: "Mes Chers Concitoyens, Le Comité des Femmes de France is organizing a grandiose event in Algeria to donate aeroplanes to the Army. Our beautiful Colony, in fact, cannot remain indifferent to the Great Patriotic Movement taking place in the metropolis, all for the purpose of ensuring national defense. In each commune, groups of vendors will offer to all, THE LITTLE FLOWER OF AVIATION, and the people of BIRMANDREÏS, whose attachment to the motherland is well known... will be keen to take part in the work undertaken. The Mayor invites everyone, without distinction of political party, race or religious belief, to pay their obeisance for the greatness of France and the Glory of its Flag."
