Bliss Would Sell Badges
Mr.. Bliss made a proposition to the
executive committee of the citizens
organization yesterday that he believes
will result in swelling the fund to mil
lions.
His plan is to sell badges all over
the United States in the name of the
Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce.
These badges will be simply mark
of honor and will show that the wearer
has contributed a certain amount to
the relief fund. He proposes to divide
the country into north, south, east and
west, and to subdivide these quarters
into states and cities with some bank
in each city as a depository. The ex-
ecutive committee approved of the plan
as applied to California, but did not
consider it should assume the respon-
sibility of collecting for the entire
country. Members of the committee
also fear that impostors would greatly
benefit by such an arrangement. 1t
is expected. however that some such
arrangement will be made this morning.
Give One Days Pay
A movement was set on foot today
by Superintendent H. V. Platt of the
Los Angeles division of the Southern
Pacific that will result in an addition
of from $1,000 to $4,000 to the general
relief fund for San Francisco sufferers.
The following bulletin was sent out to
all department chiefs in the division:
ITO all concerned: l will be. glad
to head a list and join with the officers
and employees of the Los Angeles divi-
sion in donating one days pay by hav-
ing same deducted on payroll in favor
of the local treasurer at San Francisco
for the aid of the San Francisco suf-
ferers. All employees who wish to join
in this movement will write a letter
to the respective heads of their de-
partment authorizing the company to
deduct one days pay for such pur-
pose on April time roll, and deductions
will be made on the payrolls of this
division by this office in accordance
with such request.
