RED CROSS
By CHARLES V. STANTON
It is disturbing news that Douglas County is lagging in its
support for the American Red Cross. We do not believe our
failure to meet the quota set for our community is due to
any lack of appreciation of the Red Cross nor because we
are not sufficiently benevolent. We are behind our goal, we
believe, simply because of too few contacts. An examination
into the campaign to date reveals that an excellent response
has been received from all individuals and firms so far so
licited. It is quite reasonable to assume, therefore, that not
enough individuals and firms have been canvassed. This
premise is further supported by the fact that less than one
half the business concerns and industries listed in the tele
phone directory have so far been approached by Red Cross
workers,
This Is not a new situation. In fact, many of our financial
drives have bogged down in recent years because too few
people were able to give enough time to the job of solicitation.
It requires a good many hourp to canvass from door to
door, either in the business district or in the residential area.
When business conditions are normal it is not too difficult
to find enough workers to do the job. But in such times as
we now are experiencing voluntary help is hard to obtain.
Our business men are exceedingly busy. Most of them have
insufficient help in their stores or offices. In a boom town
the problems of business managsment become involved and
require constant attention. Consequently, it becomes harder
and harder to find help heeded in civic activities requiring
donated time.
Roseburg, in our opinion, is ripe for installation of a pro
motion bureau. More and more of our growing communities
have found it necessary to place solicitations in the hands
of paid workers. Larger cities work by this method almost
entirely. Professional firms are
funds. They employ paid workers and are given compensa
tion in proportion to the amount of money raised.
This plan of operation usually occasions some criticism at
first. People who donate to a worthy cause want their money
used for the purpose for which they contribute and object
to paying out a part of the sum, even though the percentage
is small, to hired solicitors. But, as the size of a community
increases, this plan is about the only one that produces re
turns and the public learns to accept and approve it.
We do not believe anyone
Red Cross because he is hot
work. Lonir experience with
of its accomplishments has resulted in universal prestige. It
is alwavB prepared to serve in
munity suffers disaster trained
are among the first to respond
has been spectacular, but, for
behind the, scehes, doing many
is not acquainted.
The Red Cross docs not cease its war work simply because
the shooting has stopped. Instead it goes on giving help to
needy veterans in cases not otherwise covered, helping them
solve their problems, working on behalf of their dependents.
It is constantly training volunteers in first aid and conduct
ing schools in accident prevention. It is teaching the nation
to swim through the medium of annual swm schools in all
cooperative communities. One of its present major tasks is
that of building up a nation-wide blood bank and reducing
the cost of blood plasma to the person who requires it. It is
hoped that enough money will be raised in the current roll
call to expand tho blood bank program to include every
major community on the schedule of a mobile unit.
Douglas County's Red Cross quota is only 62 per cent sub
scribed. Certainly tho effort to raise our quota should be
continued until at least tho goal of $12,000 has been reached.
In fact, our contributions should surpass that figure con
siderably. Because of the shortage of workers it is quite
probable that a great many persons will not be contacted
for contributions. Those who may desire to donate volun
tarily may send checks iO the Red Cross chapter head
quarters in the Roseburg Armory.
