SCAN RED CROSS
WILL MAKE HO DRIVES
After Conclusion Of Member
snip Campaign No More
Calls For Funds. .
i "
i
I Portland, Dr., Dec. 5. The Bed Cross
hag held its last war fund drive. The
Christmas roll call campaign is the very
foundation of Bed Cross ettcrt.
These are facts brought out in a tel
egram just received by Willier E. Co
nian, state chairman of the Christmas
roll all drive, from H. P. Davison,
chairman of the war council of the Am
erican Ked Cross.
That the Bed Cross would make no
further war fund drives was a tremen
dous surprise to Bed Cross leaders, but
Mr. Davison telegraphs that he makes
tho announcement after consultation
with President Wilson.
It is probable, also, that .there will
be' no other war drives for any organ
isation whatever. .-
Despite the fuct.that so war fund
campaigns will be held. Had Cross ef
fort is to continue on e. tremendous
scale. It is probable that notwithstand
ing tho enormous amount c work still
to be done by the Red Cross, both in
this country and in Europe, its1 sole
source of revenue will be dues from
memberships.
Tor this reason a greater and great
er effort is to ibo niado to make the
Christmas roll call campaign thorough
ly "Universal membership. 1 '
Mr. Davison's telegram to Mr. Co
man follows: "I am issu'ng today a
