extensively next year. Mr.. Brock

toward the sweet potato, stated Mr..

JUNIOR RED Cross
OPEN TO ALL SCHOOL
CHILDREN LAUNCHED

Henry P. Dawson, chairman of the
Red Cross War Council, announces
the launching of Junior Red Cross
open to all school-children in the
country. The new organization
hopes to become a channel for pa
triotic service and interest to the 22,-
100000 boys and girls of school age in
the United States.
Membership in the Junior Red
Cross is to be by schools. Whenever
there has been placed in the local
school fund an amount equal to 25c
for every pupil, the school becomes a
school auxiliary of the Red Cross. and
is entitled to display special Red
Cross banner. At the same time
every pupil becomes Junior member,
and is entitled to wear the member
ship button.
The school fund can be raised by
| the school, or collected by subscrip-
| ton. In some states it will be raised
| by cities to cover all schools in the
| city districts. In other states the
campaign will be for statewide fund
| and the enrolment of all the pupils
in the state. In every case, how
ever, the schools are to be associated
| with the local chapters of the Red
Cross through a teachers committee
of the chapter.
The school fund will be used for
; the purchase of materials which the
children will make up into Red Cross
the children will have a personal
share. No part of it is to go for
chapter or general expenses.
i HOW MEMBERSHIP DEVELOPS.
Membership in the Junior Red
Cross will be developed by states.
Division managers will appoint mem
| bership committees and school ac-
| tivities committees for each state.
| The membership committee stimu-
| lates interest and raises funds for
the School Supply Fund. 1t will be
composed of some of the most in
fluential people devoted to education
al affairs.
The school activities committee will
| be made up of vocational teachers
direction patterns of articles to be
made, and other instructions for use
| in the vocational classrooms, will be
| prepared and sent to all the schools.
The plan has been developed by
| President MacCracken of Vassar. in
| consultation with school authorities
and the National Red Cross. DR..
Mac:;racken said today:
al believe in the Junior Red Cross,
not only because of the great sums
of money it will earn and the i'm
mense amount of supplies which the
school pupils, especially in our tech
nical schools will make, but because
of its educational and patriotic value
| for the children.
TEACHES UNSELTSH GIVING.
1.-THE work for the Red Cross will
teach service for others and unselfish
giving; it will stimulate Interest in
| our national government and its
| policies during the war; and it will
afford a useful release for the youth
| full energy which is stimulated bv the
violent and morbid aspects of war

SELECT SITE FOR CATHOL 10 CHURCH
 IN UNION AVENUE
Land on Both Sides o1 Street to Be Purchased
 For New Parish.

t The new Catholic parish of the Blessed Sacrament which contains the city area between the Railroad, Yel- low Mill Pond and the Stratford line, will have it church center at Union and Orange streets.
 For the purpose of building a church, convent and parish house, ap- proximately 87,OO0 square feet of property is now under option and deeds are about to be transferred.
 The property, located on both the East and West sides of Union avenue contains four four family houses and a Single cottage which will be de- molished for the church improve ments. The property was purchased from Elizabeth Krouse, Martha Hild- erbrand, John H. Mulford, Mary l.. and Edith O'Rourke, Henry Weed and wife and Mrs. Sarah Schindler.
 A plot of ground previously pur- chased on Connecticut avenue and Sixth street was found by Bishop Milan to be too small for the purposes and a definite change was considered last week. The immediate purchase of the land with the central location for the church will come as surprise to members of the new parish which has been divided from tMe present biz parish of St. Mary's.
 Rev. Terrence B. Smith, recently pastor of the Church of Blessed Sac. rament, Waterbury, has been appoint ed pastor of the new church.

bRIDCEPORTERS BELIEVED LOST
 AT EDDYST0NE
Chester Mayor Knows of At Least One and Suspects
 There Were More.

Several Bridgeport residents are to- day believed to have been killed in the Eddystone Ammunition Co.'S fire at Cheter, Penn, it was learned today when definite information came to this city from the mayor. of Chester stat ing that Tragatius Soufoulis, formerly of this city, Hvas positively known to have been among the dead recently buried in that city as unidentified.
 The information was received in this city yesterday by M. Loulas, who with his brother conducted the Liberty lunch room at 274 State street, for merly occupied by Arnold Cargill. MT. Loulas, a cousin of the deceased, went to Chester today to ascertain facts about the death and also about other Bridgeport residents now believed to have perished in that city.
 At the lunch room today it was said that Soufoulis, with other Greek speaking youths formerly employed in this city had gone to Eddystone about three months ago. Five of the young men who formerly ate in the restaurant had announced intention of applying for work. at Eddystone where at that time, more remunerative wages were offered than in this city.
 In applying for work tere, however, because of the difficulty in pronounc- ing the Greek names, those hired had taken other names more American in their origin. It is to this custom which prevails to a great extent in Bridge port that such difficulty was experi- enced in Chester when Identification of tho hOdieS was So,Ipht tN
 At the time of the explosion notif- believed to have been known in Ches- ter was killed. The name was not recognized here and the body was therefore buried in Chester among the unidentified. While in Chester, Loulas will endeavor to ascertain the location of other Bridgeport, boys now believed to have been in the explosion.

 In a conference of manufacturers with Major Henry A. Beebe held at noontime today no definite plans were laid. It was intimated that with the protection of the intuition plants here, by radical restrictions serious danger had been eliminated.
 Unless overt acts or information leading the military authorities to be- 1ieve that some overt act is intended against other factories, more strict and guard than is at pres ent supplied by the military will not be necessary as a hardship upon res idents of tis city would result, accord ing to the opinions expressed.
