CHAIN LETTERS
 FR0WNED UPON

The chain letter writer has turned his attention to the Red Cross. Copies circulating in Phoenix recite the need of chloroform in Red Cross hospitals and ask those receiving the letters to each send "A cents for this purpose to New York address, placing a key number on each letter.
 This may be legitimate enterprise, honestly conceived, or it may be a straight graft or a boost for the chlor- oform industry. Whatever it is the u.ai Red Cross has no knowledge of it and makes the suggestion that who eyer mas an impulse to contribute at this the should make his donation di- rect to his nearest Red Cross society. Chloroform may be needed but no more so than a hundred other things' and if properly financed the society can buy whatever it needs.
 Even if the enterprise be legitimate, 24cent contributions will never fin ance the Red Cross and will lead a great many to feel that they have done all that is required of them. When money is given to the Red Cross so- ciety direct, you know where it goes to.
