Why Not Give Loan
Interest to Red Cross
Portland, May 18. "Clip your
Liberty coupons for the Red Cross."
This was the message that went
resounding over the country today.
Interest coupons for the Second
Liberty Loan became due this week.
As by far the great majority of
these coupons are in the $1 and $2
value, it Is believed that many of
those having Liberty Bond coupons
due will feel It a privilege to be able
to donate them to the Red Cross.
Coupons should simply be clipped
from bonds, handed to any War Fund
solicitor, or mailed to the nearest
Red CrosB chapter.
