This is the first contribution sent from Oregon, but the committee, aided by the proclamation which Gov ernor Chamberlain has issued and the one that Mayor Lane will issue, hopes to be able within a few days to be able to cable several thousand dollars more. The soliciting committee was more than pleased with the splendid and hearty re sponse of the local business men yester day. State Senator Ben Selling was the first to contribute. He did not wait for the committee to hunt him up, but tele phoned to John Cordano that he ha mailed a check for J100 to coionet iunne. On everv hand the committee was met with a hearty response, and. Judging from the results of the first day"" wotk. the committee believes that Oregon alone will contribute to " the fund something like J20.onO. Committee Works Rapidly. The work of the committee yesterday was hurriedly done. It was anxious to get funds into the hands of the Minis ter of Finance, and work was not sys tematic Today, however, a system for mskinir the collections will be planned, It seems that everybody in the city is deenlv interested and a number oi prominent women have proferred their services in collecting money. As a result of the first day's work John Cordano and S. A. Arata turned over to Colonel Dunne checks and cash contributions amounting to over J1600. This amount, together with the prom ises that checks would be mailed to Treasurer Dunne today, will bring the amount to over J2000. In addition to the original commit tee, there was another named at a meeting of the Italian societies held last night in the office of Consul Candlani. The presidents "of these so cieties named Dr. Candlani as honor ary president, M. G. Montrezza as chairman, and will ask State Senator Ben Selling to act as treasurer.
