CHAIRMAN SHOWS ENERGY Conference of Local Workers At tended at 3 o'clock, Dinner at 6 o'CIock and Public Sleet ing Addressed Later. H. P. Davison, chairman of the Na tional War Council and chairman of the executive committee of the Ameri can Red Cross, and Harvey D. Gibson, general manager of the American Red Cross, .visited Portland yesterday for the twofold purpose of accounting? for the expenditure of $100,000,000 sub scribed last June for Red Cross work ami making an appeal for additional subscriptions that will be required shortly after the first of the year for this important work. These distinguished men were accom panied by Rev. Robert Davis, of Engle wood, N. J., who returned only recently from the French front, and Ivy Lee, di rector of publicity for the Red Cross organization. The party was met on Its arrival from California yesterday afternoon by Dr. Kenneth A. J. Mac kenzie, of the local Red Cross chapter, end taken to the Portland Hotel. The party left last night for Seattle. Purpose Is Twofold. "Our purpose in making; this tour of the United States," said Mr. Davison, is twofold. The people of the United States a few months ago gave us $100, 000.000 on confidence. "We have come to tell those subscribers the use that is being made of their money and to present the urgency of the need for further funds if the work we have In augurated is to be continued, as it must be. The work being done through the Red Cross is the greatest ever under taken in the world. That may be re garded as an extravagant statement, but it is true. It must be continued, and will be continued. The patriotism of the American people may be de pended upon to respond as they always have to every need of their country in time of war." i Mr. Davison said a Nation-wide cam paign for increasing tne membership of the Red Cross organization would be made some time next month, prob ably about Christmas week. This will be followed shortly after the first of the year with a campaign for subscrip tions of money with which the activi ties of the Red Cross may be contin ued. t Direct Action Noticeable. In the few hours the party was in the city Mr. Davison sustained ht3 rep utation as a man of action, acquired when he succeeded to the head of the Red Cross organization. Discarding the cumbersome red tape methods by vfhich the work of the society was se riously handicapped, Mr. Davison im mediately introduced and applied com mon sense business principles and got results. jjBesides atttending a conference of local' Red Cross workers at the Port land Hotel at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Mr. Davison attended a dinner given by the Red Cross officers of this city at the same hotel at 6 o'clock and later spoke at the public meeting 'in the Eleventh-street Theater. ' At the afternoon conference Dr. Mac kenzie presided. Mr. Davison spoke briefly, merely "referring to his stew ardship .of the fund of $100,000,000, raised last June and of which the peo ple of Oregon contributed more than $1,000,000. Mr. Gibson detailed the work actually being accomplished and emphasized the need for further funds to meet the demand for assistance com ing to the Red Cross officials from France. He related that although 3, 000,000. surgical dressings were being sent to the French authorities every month, he had received a cablegram since arriving in Portland informing him that an increased supply was necessary. False Reports Branded. Warmly commending the women of the country for their industry in knit ting garments for the soldiers, Mr. Gibson assured the women in the aud ience, several of whom brought their knitting with them, that every garment so contributed was used for the sol diers. He denounced as positively false reports that some of these garments had been sold to soldiers or others and had never reached the men in the trenches. Such rumors, he charged. were only a part of propaganda that is being circulated by enemies of the country in their desperate efforts to do harm and injury to the work of the Red Cross. In the drive for $100,000,000 funds for the Red Cross so successfully conducted last June, Oregon's quota was fixed at $600,000, but the actual subscriptions aggregated more than $1,000,000. Port land was expected to raise $400,000, but the subscriptions in this city exceeded $600,000. The state outside of Portland was asked to subscribe $200,000 ' and reported $406,000.
