'POP' GATES ASKS
CHINESERELIEF
Chairman of Campaign In
City Issues Statement
On Need of Contributions.
The United Chine Relief drive
U underway throughout the
county and rontributiom are
being received by the solicitor!.
The drive in Jackson county to
raise money (or needy purpose!
In China lasts this week and
those not contacted may leave
their donations at either Med
ford bank or at the Chamber
of Commerce.
C. E. "Pop" Gates heads the
city campaign with Mrs. Mar
garet Fabrick as chairman of
the vicinity outside Medford.
Concerning the drive Mr. Gates
said:
"At the request of the mem
bers of the Medford committee
on the drive (or the China Re
lief. I have a.cepted the chair
manship (or the city of Medford
on this drive. Our quota in the
rity of Medford is very small
considering the worthiness o(
this cause.
"Millions of children are
starving in China (or the want
of food, nourishment, medical
supplies, etc., and I wish to
appeal to the citizens of Med
ford to help and to do so as
quickly as possible as we want
to finish the drive this week.
I sincerely beg of you to help
us out as freely and as quick
ly as possible Any amount Is
acceptable no difference how
small.
It was gratifying to have three
different partly voluntarily turn
in subscriptions to me this morn
ing Lewis Super Service Sta
tion, Mr. and Mrs. Joe E. Eerley
of Hotel Holland, and Mrs. Mar
garet Fabrick their subscrip
tions totaled $50.
"One very popular subscrip
tion is the donation of enough
to keep a child for one year,
which entitles the giver to a
beautiful certificate showing
them to be the 'esteemed grand
parent' of one child In China.
This is fostered by Madame
Chiang Kai-shek.
Honorary president of this
organization is Mrs. Benjamin
Harrison, wife of the former
United States President Ben
jamin Harrison, who to my sur
prise, as I am an ex-Hocsler, is
still living and nearlng the cen
tury mark.
"Any who would like to re
ceive one of these certificates
at the low price of $20 I would
be very pleased to have call at
the Chamber of Commerce. I
will have you enlisted and have
the certificate sent to you. It
would be very worthy and very
much appreciated by the people
of China to have many Amer
icans enrolled as 'esteemed
grandparents' to the suffering
children of China.
"If there is any information
or anything you would like to
know about this cause I would
appreciate your calling at the
Chamber of Commerce any day
this week. Medford has never
fallen down on any occasion of
this kind and I know they will
not this time. If there Is any
one who would like to volunteer
to sollcite some small district,
I will appreciate your help."
