THE' SUNDAY OREGOXIAN. PORTLAND, NOVEMBER 26, 191G.
A request for co-operation In mak
ing the 1316 Red Cross seal sale the
most successful in the history of the
Ktate. thereby enabling a still more ef
fective campaign against tuberculosis
to be carried forward, has been issued
by the Oregon Association for the Pre
vention of Tuberculosis. In addition an
appeal has been made for contributions
of waste paper to assist the same work
and also that of the Visiting; Nurses'
Association.
As a feature of the campaign for the
sale of seals it has been decided to ob-'
verve "Tuberculosis" Sunday either
December 3 or 10. This will give an
opportunity for carrying the work for
preventive effort against the disease
and adequate care for the stricken into
every pulpit and before every church
audience in Oregon.
The Oregon Association for the Pre
vention of Tuberculosis has com
menced a survey of the state, county
by county. The surveys in Lane, Clat
sop, Jackson, Josephine and Washing
ton counties have been completed. Re
sults will be announced in detail when
the work is done.
Facilities for Treatment Shown.
The survey has already proved that
by its means information never before
pattered will be tabulated. The facili
ties or lack of facilities for the care,
treatment and prevention of tubercu
losis in each county will be shown.
Tho number of cases will be listed and
segregated as to whether they are in
cipient, moderately advanced or far
advanced and also as to the number
of cases reported before the survey and
the number reported as a direct result
of it. The survey will provide for
each county a history of the disease
in that county, indicating its increase
or decrease, how many of the afflicted
contracted the trouble within the
county and the number that had the
disease when they moved into the
county. Then it will be shown how
tuberoulosis is distributed as to cities,
towns and rural communities. Cities
and towns having city hospitals, clin
ics and dispensaries, school inspection
and open-air rooms will be designated.
The county's ears of tuberculous pa
tients in such institutions as Jails and
poor farms will be discussed and
whether the county has a. relief board
and what assistance is granted in tu
berculosis cases.
Survey Work to Be Pressed.
The survey is definite and thorough
and its value to all health and public
officials will be so great that the work
has the hearty approval and full co
operation of the Oregon State Board of
Health.
The proceeds of this year's sale of
Red Cross seals will be used to carry
on the survey and to maintain the
preventive work organized by the as
sociation. A plan to obtain donations of waste
paper and old magazines as a means of
swelling the fund for combating tu
berculosis in the state has been evolved
by the Visiting Nurse Association and
the Oregon Association for the Preven
tion of Tuberculosis. It is believed by
the sale of such donations a substantial
portion of the funds needed for the
campaign against tuberculosis, and for
nursing thoee wjo are unable to pay
tor care, may De raised.
Waste May Be Sold.
Thousands of magazines, newspa
pers, pasteboard boxes and waste paper
are destroyed in Portland every week.
There is a ready sale for this material
lr collected in quantity," says a state
ment from the two organizations.
"AVe have perfected an organization
to collect contributions of all forms of
waste paper. Telephone the Visiting
xsurse .Association at Alain -40s7 or
A 4342, or the Oregon Association tor
the Prevention of Tuberculosis at Main
6442. and we will come and get it. Col
lections in the business district will be
made daily or upon request, and in the
residence districts monthly.
"T'.ie proceeds of tho sale of waste
paper will be divided equally between
the two associations.
"Contributions of waste paper will be
as definitely helpful in nursing the sick
and fighting consumption as cash gifts
nuuiu ue.

ANDREW KAN, BACK FROM VISIT,
POINTS OUT OPPORTUNITIES.
President of Asiatic Importing Com
pany Declares Friendly Nation Seeks
Investments by Americans.
Opportunity beckons to American
capital from China, says Andrew Kan,
prominent Chinese merchant of this
city, who has Just returned from i
three-months business trip to ills na
five land. Mr. Kan is president of the
Asiatic Importing Company, and on his
Journey to the Orient he kept in mind
possible advantages. that might come
to the united States in the way of in
creased trade.
"Right now is the opportunity of this
country in China," ho said. "The
chance for the United States to build
up a profitable commerce with China
is great. The Chinese are generally
friendly to America, and will welcome
closer trade bonds.
"There are many opportunities for
Investment in mines, railroads and fac
tories. With American capital invested
and Chinese workmen employed, each
would be the gainer. Returns on in
vestment would be large; they are al
ready' large where this system is in
effect. Capital, moreover, is so well
secured When it is invested in this
way that there is no possibility of its
loss.
"Internal troubles of China have
hampered the industrial progress of
the country.
"America must remember this: Her
commercial men have got to hurry if
they want to maintain or increase their
markets." '

ducted.
The " associations, working Jointly
have arranged at small expense to have
the paper collected from all parts of
the city, the collector going into the
residence sections once a month and
through the business districts once a
week. Anyone having waste paper,
pasteboard boxes and other discarded
articles of similar material have been
asked to telephone or notify either of
the associations and collectors will be
sent from time to time. In this way
the organizations will be able to realize
considerable money for the carrying

THE AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR THE REIEF OF FRENCH WAR ORPHANS 1

peal for Orphan Children of French
diers who have died in defense of France
It is reported that the number of French orphans who will ultimately need aid will be in excess of 400,000,
and that there are at the present time 200,000 in ACTUAL WANT. The stupendous and crushing burden of
the war will not permit the French Government to pay more than 10 francs ($2) per month per orphan," and it is
NECESSARY FOR PRIVATE CHARITY TO CONTRIBUTE AT LEAST 15 FRANCS ($3) PER
MONTH ADDITIONAL FOR THE MAINTENANCE OF EACH CHILD.
The AMERICAN SOCIETY has pledged itself to help several thousand orphans during the six months
commencing November 1 , and it desires to increase the number as speedily as possible and to extend the period of
assistance. It will be doubly helpful to those in need if they can be assured at the outset of this winter, which
will be exceptionally hard upon France that fixed aid from Americans can be relied upon to prevent actual suffering
among orphans.
The needs of the WAR ORPHANS OF FRANCE peculiarly call for American sympathy
and help, and it would be fitting if, at this period of NATIONAL THANKSGIVING, Americans
contributed, each according to his means, to the
FRENCH WAR ORPHANS FUND
now being raised by the American Society and thereby joined in extending a helping hand to
France in a way most helpful to her and most likely to touch the hearts of her people, who are so
heroically and self-sacrificingly facing unparalleled calamities in a spirit of lofty patriotism which
has thrilled the whole world. Americans should avail of this opportunity to relieve, so far as
lies in their power, the orphaned and suffering children of French soldiers, and in that manner
make some return for the SERVICES and SACRIFICES of the FRANCE of LAFAYETTE
and ROCHAMBEAU at the time of the American Revolution WHEN AMERICA NEEDED
HELP. EVERY contribution, however small, will tend to increase the number of orphans
the American Society can undertake to succor, and will help discharge the debt America has long
owed to the French people, and for which Wasmngton pledged our most unalterable gratitude.'
The AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR THE RELIEF OF FRENCH WAR ORPHANS has been
incorporated under the laws of the State of New York for the purpose of
() liaising funds by voluntary contributions to be used for the aid and relief of needy French
children whose fathers have lost their lives as the result of the present war in Europe, and
(2) Systematizing and centralizing the collection of funds in the United States for that purpose
and their effective distribution in France.
Its membership is divided into () "Founders," who contribute $500 or r more per annum;
(2) "Benefactors," who contribute $250 per annum; (3) "Sustaining Members," who contribute
$100 per annum, and 4) "Contributing Members," who conttihute less than $100 per annum.
The American Society undertakes, by means of its membership dues and a guaranty fund, to
defray ALL the EXPENSES of management, . collection and distribution of contributions for
FRENCH WAR ORPHANS in order that the ENTIRE AMOUNT contributed for the aid'
and relief of these HELPLESS CHILDREN may be applied to their needs without any deduction
for expenses of any kind, here or abroad.
The AMERICAN SOCIETY solicits contributions to its WAR ORPHANS FUND in order to be able to
pledge fixed monthly aid towards the support of as large a number of FRENCH WAR ORPHANS as possible
at the rate of three dollars a month for each child.
DONATIONS to the FRENCH WAR ORPHANS FUND should be sent by check or post office money orders
to the order of THE AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR THE RELIEF OF FRENCH WAR ORPHANS enclosed with
a subscription, in the form of the blank at the foot of this announcement, to 4THE AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR THE
