Says 1t Is Needed to Estab-

Appeals have been addressed TO $4,000
residents Of Philadelphia by the Southwest
ern PENNSYLVANIA Chapter, American Red
Cross, calling for contributions for the es-
tablishment of three base hospitals for inn
mediate organization and equipment
The petition. which IS signed by the
finance committee Of the local chapter. of
which T.. r. Stotesbury is chairman. briefly
calls attention to the importance of the
project. and reCtes that the sum of 500. 600
is required at once for its purpose, This
letter reads:
THE tremendous crisis our country Is
facing demands that the American Red
Cross be prepared to do the work for which
il was organized.
The American Red Cross at Washington.
which is our Governments official arm of
relief 10 the army and navy in time of war.
has instructed the Southeastern Pennsyl-
Nania chapter to organize and equip imme-
diatCly three base hospitals, containing 1850
beds The organization of the medical and
surgical staffs for these hospitals is nearly
completed. and it is now necessary to pro-
vide the essential equipment and sufficient
supplies Of all kinds of stores, such as sur
gIcal instruments. medical supplies, drugs
bedding kitchen equipment, etc.
one hundred thousand dollars is required
at once for this purpose, and prompt and
liberal subscriptions are imperatively
needed
This Is a cause that should appeal to every
one, as it is possible that these hospitals
may be needed to take care Of those who
are closest and dearest to us.
The signatures attached to this letter are
those Of T.. r. Stotesbury, Richard l.. Aus
tin Charles c. Harrison, Jr, Alba b. John
son, William II. Nicholson, Charles ].

Subscribers are requested TO send their
donations to Charles c. Harrison Jry treas
urcr, at the chapter headquarters, 22l South
Eighteenth street.
Richard l.. Austin, OF the committee, in a
statement explaining its appeal, says:
AS we do not know how soon the serv-
ices Of these hospitals will be required, it
Is imperative that the money should be
raised at once Without money little can
be done in obtaining equipment and re-
serve stock of supplies, and even with the
money in hand it will take some little while
to get together the equipment.
The United States Government has but
one hospital ship ready for service and one
more under construction. The apparent de-
ficiency in this branch OF the service will
emphasize the necessity Of providing at
once the proper hospital equipment on
shore.

plan to save water for consumers includes
meter installations, patent equipment and
spray sprinklers for street flushing Instead

Meters are rapidly being installed in big

residences as well Meters are now in
operation in many plants suspected IN the
past or wasting water under the old
fixture rates. Accurate records are being
kept for meter use. and this week bills for
the $4,000 meters now IN service will be
sent out covering tho minimum prices for
the year. With view TO the ultimate meter

business houses now on fixture rates. the

more than 10000 that will be installed by

Special efforts are being made to curtail
