BONDS ARE ACCEPTABLE Frequent Reports ot Larger Con tributions Will Be Sent to Other Cities In Northwest to Stimulate Interest. GITB LOAN BONDS TO THE RED CROSS. Every patriot tan help hia country in twofold fashion If he or she is a buyer of one or more liberty loan bonds. For he helps his country finance Its gigantic share of the -burden of the war when he buyB the bond, and he can at once turn around "and hand the bond over to the Red Cross war relief furtd as his con tribution to that noble cause in lieu of cash subscription. Word was received yesterday from the National Red Cross War Council by local headquarters that liberty bonds would be ab solutely satisfactory as gifts to the Red Cross fund. In view of that fact, the local campaign committee In charge of the $200,000 drive will make every endeavor to Induce liberty loan ' bond buyers to turn all or at least a portion of their bond holdings over to the war relief fund. ter that will be of interest to Portland friends iind parishioners: The sights that one sees and is a part of, ara Kttieaome. yet for me it does not take aw.y the reelln of necessity that the clvll lzd world la under to see this thine through at any coat. It has been impreaalve the paat few -weeks to aee the effect on the French of the recent action of the government of the United gtatea. There la a aenae of latlon and of camaraderie toward Ameri cana and towards the States that raakea one at iaat proud of bring- an American citlsen. and no longer ashamed. My time expires on the 14th ot June, when we ahall return to the States, as i- feel that I can be of more eervlce there than I can here now that the country has " taken her proper place and is beslimlng to bear her ahare of the burden. We are atlll close to the front but In par tial repose, in a noiast but for us not very active aector at the present moment, bat no one knows from day to day what the next day may bring forth, in the meantime some of us are being allowed to do brancar (ller work, which takes us for several days at a time into the second line trenches and which is most tremendously Interesting, as one is not only able to be of immediate ser vice, bot it gives one a chance to see things clone to which otherwise an ambulance PAST COMMANDER'S JEWELS TO BE PRESENT TO 21. A ocum ulatlng- added strength at very step and increasing its scope with every hour, Portland's organization of Red Cross forces is plunging into its work of preliminary preparation with enthusiasm and with the determination to raise every dollar of the $200,000 the city has been called upon to contribute toward the $100,000,000 President Wll fon has asked the Nation to raise. That Portland stands ready to put her shoulder to the wheel in the biggest proposition she has faced since America entered the war is evident from the willingness with which her biggest and busiest citizens are responding to the call of the war council through the local Red Cross committee. Each day adds new recruits to the drive. Business and professional men whose private interests are large are closing their desks and Joining in the work necessary to the success of Fort- land's effort. The first big rally of the campaign forces will be held today at the Hotel Benson, where General Chairman W. B. Ayer will entertain the 20 team captains who are to supervise the big drive, together with the chairmen of important committees and Red Cross chiefs at luncheon. ' At this luncheon the personnel of the 20 teams, com prised of 10 "men each, will be an nounced by the team captains, who have been busy for a week selecting men of exceptional managerial ability Xor this work. Tasks "Will Be Assigned. Definite and detailed tasks will be assigned to these teams, and specific instructions will be given to the work ers as to the methods to be followed and important points to be covered in making the big' drive. An inspirational address by Dr. John H. Boyd will be made, emphasizing .the great humani tarian work of the Red Cross, the im perative demands now made upon "it, end the urgent need for every' patrlotio man and woman in America to give generously of their money so that the American boys who are giving their lives for their country may have proper hospital care when wounded in battle. The first public address on behalf of the Red Cross and its call for the patriotic help of Portland's citizens will be made by Dr. Boyd tonight at 8 o'clock at the dedicatory exercises at the Festival Center. Clty la Districted. Henry E. Reed, director-general of the Red Cross house-to-house cam paign, last night completed the block ing out of the entire area of Portland into an even 20 canvassing districts and had secured the acceptances of more than half the number of district captains needed to cover Wle territory. Reports were received last night at local Red Cross headquarters showing that the campaign organizations which will conduct the local drives in Clarke county. AVashington, and also in -the Southwestern Washington ;- territory have been completed to the last detail and are ready for field work Imme diately. .

Stone, Northwest division manager, announced yesterday that he would receive at his local offices dally reports from every division, large and email, in the four states, Oregon, Wash ington. Idaho and Montana, showing the progress of the drive for each consecutive 24 hours. Also that he would receive detailed Red Cross dona tions from all points in his territory, with amounts of $1000 or over' with the names of the donors. . . ' ' "We have-adopted that plan of arousing- interest," explained Stone, "so that each of the communities or large popu lation centers may be thoroughly ad vised right. down to the minuteas to what the principal contributors in all other sections in ' this territory are jjiving. "Every time Portland, Seattle, Taco iha, Spokane, Butte, Boise or other city reports a gift of $1000 or more, we will see that this information goes to nil other large centers immediately. We expect that this plan will- result In arousing much keener rivalry among the various campaign, organizations. , " "i f q ' f i U tF'y, it I . j" , s, I J ' j 5 , " If kA If' 'V r I I t h I if ' t V 'K ft :5 J .
