American Red Cross News

To Pacific Division Chapters: Will you kindly give publicity to the following facts as regard the San Salvador earthquake: ::
 Immediately after news was received of the earthquake in San Salvador, the American Red Cross at Washington tele- graphed to the. Red Cross Sup ply Service at San Francisco to obtain shipping space and ship relief supplies, consisting of drugs, medicines, corrugated iron roofing and lumber for building temporary houses, clothing and tents. a-.
 There was no time to first so- licit funds for this purpose, so the Red Cross Society has ad- vanced these funds and would be glad now to receive contri- buttons from the public to cover these outlays and for further relief in this stricken territory. War relief funds cannot be used for this purpose. It is therefore necessary that spec ial contributions from the pub lie be made to cover. Checks may be sent to your local treas urer and Pacific Division of flee advised of the amount re- ceived.
 The shipment was made a few days after the earthquake, and another shipment will be made shortly, dependent on the amount of subscriptions re- ceived.
 Please call a meeting of your Board of Managers and advise us immediately what assistance can be rendered. Space for a large additional shipment has been offered if we can avail ourselves of it in a given length of time.
 Very Truly Yours,
 JOHN l.. CLYMER,
 Director Pacific Division.

PROSPECTOR NEARLY DIES
 0F THIRST IN GRAND CANYON
Forest Service Warns Tourists
 Not To Get Of Trails With Out Experienced Guides

Albuquerque, N. M. July 24 |: Nearly dead from thirst and ex-
 haustion in the Grand Canyon, James McGraw of Flagstaff, Arizona, was recently rescued by w. Lockridge, an employee of Coconino County, Shorty" Oller, of the Fred Harvey sve- tenn, and Aldo Leopold and T Earl Wilder of the Forest Ser vice.
 Carrying only one gallon of water, McGraw entered the Canyon by Bright Angel trail, in search of an alleged lead mine at the head of Pipe Creek. He did not return that night, and the search party left early the next morning. On the lowest ledge of the red sand stone about 1900 feet below the rim, McGraws trail was picked up. Here the party was compel led to leave the saddle animals but managed to work one mule about 2 miles along the ledge. At 4 P. M. McGraw was found where PipeCreek heads against the main wall. In the intense heat he had been without water for thirty hours and was unable to move: but he was finally re- vived and able to return.
 Officers of the Forest Service point out the danger of going alone into the, Canyon in the summer without plenty of wa ter, and without a guide or tho- rough knowledge of the coun- try.
