"do its bit" for the Red Cross war re lief fund. The fundamental object of putting this city-sweeping force of volunteers into the field is based on the instruc tions and suggestions from the Nation al War Council, which has declared that the fund cannot be materialized through a small number of heavy dona tions but must be based upon thou sands and thousands of modest gifts from the rank and file of the citizenry of the Nation. 600 Volunteers Required. Henry E. Reed. County Assessor, has volunteered to act as director-general of this phase of the drive. He has di vided the city into 20 sub-divisions based upon geographical boundaries and following the election districts closely. He will have 20 district cap tains and these men will select a spe cial staff of campaigners to cover the city. Each worker will have from 60 to 75 premises to visit and will have four days in which to make returns from his district. Probably 600 volunteers will be called to the front for this work.

(Special. At the regular meeting of the Rose burg Lodge of Elks held here thi week. $200 was donated by the order for the Red Cross work. This Is th first appropriation received by th committees in charge of the Red Cross drive In Douglas County. Although th soliciting for Red Cross funds does not actually begin until Monday a nurpber of Douglas County committeemen ready are in the field ready to begi operations. Every part of Douglas County will be visited and not a per son will be neglected. Unfaltering Determination. Shown Everywhere That $400,000 Quota Shall Be Oversubscribed Call lor Service Imperative. With fires of loyalty burning high. with energy fed by patriotism and with organization such as the state never saw before. Oregon will begin tomor row to recruit dollars for the defense of the Nation's defenders. Red Cross week opens with 150 com munities outside Portland completely organized in unfaltering determination hat the $400,000 quota of the state at large shall be oversubscribed. Matching the size of the task Is the willingness to give and give, no matter hat the sacrifice. More than 6000 of he state's men and women whose abil- ty is proven by their personal success have dedicated personal service to the work of Red Cross dollar recruiting, la seven days they purpose to appeal indi vidually to the generosity of every oth er man and woman in Oregon, and the children, too then to add their own. gifts. Get the dollars and get them to the front before our soldier boys reach the war" is the slogan that will demand a proportion of the big wheat-field prof Its, that will ask help from the mines and mills, the fruit belt and livestock districts, the fisheries and the forests. There Is to be no road too long and too rough to prevent workers calling on every family living near It; there is to be no community too small to visit; no city too large to be thoroughly can vassed. Social affairs and meetings irrelevant to the purposes of Red Cross week will be postponed, so that no time or energy may be lost in the campaign. In -Jamaica there are trees called th 'whip trees." and from these the na tives make strong whips with the lash and handle all In one. Oregon Will Malatnta Reputation. "Judging by personal Interviews and the reports we have received. Oregon will measure up in Red Cross contribu tions to her record in Army and Navy enlistments and liberty bond subscrip tions, remarked General State Chair man H. L. Corbett yesterday. 'Eastern Oregon will double its al lotment. People in the fruitgrowing districts will probably make the great est personal sacrifices In raislrg the mounts allotted to them, but I have no questloi) these amounts will be raised. Unless certain portions of the Willam ette come out of their lethargy, their own young men are going to suffer through. their sluggishness. The Coast commu nities will raise all of their appor tionments, even in the mountain dis tricts. The cattle counties, with profit able business and low allotments, have every reason to be asked and expected to come to the scratch in the same whole-hearted manner. Call for Service Imperative. "One thing we must not forget. Our young men have been enlisted and con scripted for military service. They go, patriotic and obedient, to offer their lives. We have helped the Government finance the war with a tremendous oversubscription, of liberty bonds upon which we will be paid interest and which will ultimately be returned to us. Now President Wilson, by proc lamation, calls upon us to contribute our money to the military and civilian relief work of the Nation. The call to service under the Red Cross is as Im perative as military enlistment and conscription. There are no exemptions. Little or much, we must all do our share. "The Red Cross $400,000 drive in Ore gon during the coming week will prob ably be financed at as low a cost as any financial campaign ever carried on in the state. The spirit that animates the workers Is Indicated in a letter re- ' ceived yesterday by State Campaign Manager L. G. Nichols from J. H. Booth, president of the Roseburg organization, saying: "Gas and cars and dinners and everything else will be borne by the workers and gladly. I only hope sub scribers will use soma of the same spirit when we get at them. Today a team is in every town of the county with literature to complete the final work of the campaign." Sunday Called Vposi for More. The $50 contribution of Billy Sun day, the evangelist, to the Red Cross war service fund being raised by a campaign committee at his home town. Hood River, is not satisfactory to the committee. "Billy sent us $50," tele phoned Hood River Campaign Manager Ravlln to the state committee yester day. "We had heard that he pledged $1000 to the Red Cross fund In New York. We immediately sent him a mes sage saying that we expect him to send us the other $50. We have eight $100 subscriptions ready to announce Mon day and a large number of $50 sub scriptions." AVitliam to Speak at Ontario. ONTARIO. Or., June 16. (Special.) Ontario is getting ready for the Red Cross drive wherein it is hoped that $5000 may be raised for the cause. A mass meeting will be held Sunday even ing at which H. E.
