Huggins, Miller to Organize
Red Cross Campaign Here
Charles Huggins and Floyd Miler have -accepted responsi
bility for organizing for the local chapter of the American Red
Cross the war fund drive! scheduled for ' March 1, it was an
nounced Saturday. ?
Because : of the large amount
of money to be raised it was con
sidered wiser to divide the county
into .Salem proper and the! ter
ritory outside of Salem. Mr. Hug
gins wll assume responsibility for
the Salem -organization and Mr.
Miller will organize the outlying
territory, r l"-
"We feel exceedingly fortunate
that these two men with such fine
records of community and busi
ness leadership have agreed - to
give the war fund campaign the
benefit of their i ability," stated
Judge George Rossman, chapter
chairman. ; He concluded, CJhe
needs of the Red Cross are so
emergent In connection with its
responsibility to the military that
it is-tremendously important that
the war fund goal be successfully
accomplished. . f ? f
Each of the war fun leaders
has a fine record of leadership,
chapter officials j pointed out in
releasing the appointments. Hug
gins, who came to Salem j from
Marshfield, built up a record for
civic and : business leadership
there, and Miller, who has been
identified with the best leader
ship in conection with affairs in
Salem, has also successfully; car
ried on the organization of the
county outside of Salem for Red
Cross roll call during the years
1938 to 1941, during which j time
Salem people were giving their
load; plea of guilty to both
charges; both cases continued to
February 11 for sentence, j !
