11 BED GROSS RELIEF IS DUTY OF CITIZENS THE WORLD'S GREATEST EMOTIONAL ACTRESS Come Early! Oregon, Outside of Portland, Called Upon to Furnish $400,000 of Fund. THE SUNDAY OKEGONIAN, PORTLAND, JTTXE 10, 1917. f i- MANY NEEDS ARE OUTLINED 1 .From Front-Line Trenches, Where Wounded Lie, to Homes Where Wives, Babes, Mothers Walt, , Organization Has Work. "A soldier offers his life in defense of his country and goes without ques tion wherever ordered by his superior offieef; Oregron people can contribute to their $400,000 quota of the $100, 000,000 Red Cross war relief fund with the same confidence that the money will be used to the highest efficiency where most needed," declared I G. Nichols, state campaign manager for the Red Cross, yesterday. To answer the many questions as to what is to be done with the money and to give other Information about the campaign, the state committee sent, yesterday, to every community commit tee In the state and to Montana. Idaho and Washington the following bulletin: Oregon, outside Portland, must sub scribe 400,000 of the $100,000,000 emergency Ked Cross war service fund during the week of June 18-25 in or der to meet the expectations of Pres ident Wilson, who has appealed to the Nation for this fund. Ambulances Must Be AJde Prompting the President's appeal are the thousands of Red Cro&s ambu lances on the firing line that must be maintained. Other thousands of am bulances must be built and sent to the front. Forty-five base hospitals al ready have been established and their work must be supplemented with that of many more hospitals in order to treat the wounds and save the lives of thousands of soldiers. Including our own home boys. The force of Red Crose physicians and nurses must be greatly Increased and kept on duty. British. French and Belgian soldiers can be sent home when, under hos pital care, they have commenced to recover from wounds or sickness, but for Uncle Sam's soldier boys convales cent hospitals must be built by the Red Cross. Mothers and wives who have given up sons and husbands and who have no other support must be cared for by the Red Cross organization. Vocational Schools Vital. Vocational schools for soldiers In capacitated by wounds for ordinary work must be organized and financed. From the front-line trenches to the mothers left at homo the universal service of mercy must maintain a vast organization and spend tremendous sums In order to meet an almost over whelming emergency growing out of United States' participation In the world war. Nor can the work be de layed one day. Bullets will not wait on tardy dollars. The man who offers his life on the battle field for the de fense of his country must not be left to bear the burdn alone. Why does not the Government finance this relief work? The question Is often asked. The answer is: The American. Red Cross is ranged s a neutral as long as it Is maintained by private subscriptions. The administra tion of the Red Cross cannot be car ried on as are the National naval and military operations. Relief work also must cut red tape, must be promptly ready for every emergency, roust be governed by humanitarian principles and quick decisions and must not be hampered by the restrictions of gov ernmental machinery. At the same time the Red Cross Is the only relief agenoy formally authorized by the Gov ernment. Its head Is the President of the United) States. Its account are audited by the War Department. It Is chartered by Congrress. President Wil son declares: "A large, well organized 'and effi cient Red Cross Is essential. It is both a. patriotic and human service that la rendered by every citizen who becomes a member of the American Red Cross." All Subscriptions Not Paid at Once. Red Cross subscriptions need not be paid all at one time. One-fourth will be due July 1, one-fourth August 4, one-fourth September 1 and the re mainder October 1. A task as great as that of get tin the subscriptions is to Inform every man. woman and child of Oregon of the purposes and emergency character of the campaign before Red Cross week, proclaimed by the President, which ba sins June 18. Community committees are urged to have a forceful speaker present at every gathering whether email or large. Newspapers are called on for liberal space. Ministers are asked to present the subject to their congregations. Let every patriotic cit izen speak of the campaign to every other person he or she meets. In this world war some must give their lives; others their money. No patriot at home eould bear to think that a patriot bled to death on the battle field because he or she failed to contribute their dollars to the Red Cross. You have no right to say you are patrlotlo unless you give your ut most In servioe, no matter what It may Involve In personal sacrifice. BAKER TO BEGIN ITS DRIVE II. I j.
