Statewide Red
Cross Campaign

Portland, June 9.-Until the Red
Cross week, June 1925, is past and
the 100000 asked of Oregon outside
of Multnomah county for the $780,
900 emergency Red Cross fund has
been secured, it is asked that large
social affairs be discontinued in or
der that all energy may be given
the big, patriotic task assigned to
this state.
At the same time, H. L. Corbett,
chairman of the State Red Cross
committee, suggests that such meth
ods Of raising money for the Red
Cross as teas and socials be discon-
tinued. He believes the situation
too grave, the need too pressing and
Oregon's responsibility too great to
go about the work in 4 small way.
Each community will be systemati-
cally districted by its committee, and
loyal citizens are asked to have their
contributions ready to give direct
without loss of time or extra costs.
It Is desired that every cent shall

clay Atchinson will go to Astoria.
Arrangements have been made for
reports from all Oregon communi-
ties which will be summarized and
sent out as bulletins OF progress. The
state at large is asked for $400, 900;
the city of Portland for 100000.
There will be keen competition be-
tween state and Portland commit
tees to be first in reporting success.
There are those who want to know
why the Red Cross Is so important
to the nation In Its way emergency
that President Wilson Issued a proc
latmation appealing for 500, 1000, 900
fund and setting aside Red Cross
week In which to raise It.
At the front line trenches, strecher
bearers wearing the insignia OF the
Red Cross will be found carrying the
wounded to the rear. Red Cross am
balances are carrying the wounded to
Red Cross base hospitals where Red
Cross physicians and nurses faith
fully nurse the wounded soldiers
back to health, in order that they
may return to the world war for lib
erty or he able to come back to those
who wait for them al home.
The bandages used in Red Cross
hospitals are made by devoted wom-
en- working for the Red Cross in
many communities.
The vocational training given sold
iers incapacitated for former em-
ployment will be organized by the
Red Cross The mother who has
given up her boy, her support, to
the service of his country, will find
her necessities cared for by the Red
Cross and he can march away with
no anxious thought as to her well
fare.
The training of Red Cross nurses
is under Red Cross direction, Thus
all along the line the universal serv-
ice of mercy helps to lesson the hor-
rors and rigors of war and also to
strengthen the nation. The United
States cannot do its part without
the Red Cross and the Red Cross
is dependent on the contributions OF
those who want to help win the war
but cannot serve at the front.

Why This Cold Indifference to the

Liberty Loan?
Some things done by Portland, in
the past, SAVIOR of marked open
handed prodigality, but the situation,
at present writing. on the indiffer-
ence of the wealthy in subscribing
literally to the Liberty Loan is any
thing but an edifying spectacle, and
the Oregonian doesn't hesitate to
state the plain fact that the Portland
bankeF are amazed that the CONNER
cial capital of Oregon should permit
itself to be in such an unhappy
plight. Within five days from the
present date (June 10) Portland has
to make good to the extent of ST.
715.000, and the thought in most
