RED CROSS NEEDSFUND
"Drive" for $1oo,oo0,o00 Opens
Throughout Country.
New York and Chicago VIII give at
Least $4,000 o,ooo-Every Region
Must Be Generous Now.

Uncle Sam is calling for Red Cross
fund Of S1OO,OOOO0O to enable the Red
Cross to give the proper care to the
sick and wounded, the homeless anu
the desolate when his men get into
the fighting In earnest. New York city
has promptly pledged itself to raise
pne-fourth Of whatever sum Is needed
and Is now collecting the money. Chi
cago will be asked for something be-
tween s5,OOO,O0O and S100O0,00O, the
levy based on population AMI credit
rating.
Mr.. o. B. Towne has been appointed
by Washington as director OF the Aed
Cross war fund campaign, for the CEN
trail division, and will open a drive
for the money In nine states as soon
as it has been determined just how
much he needs.
The money will be raised by sub
scrlption among the various chapters,
and it has been arranged that each
chapter shall have one-fourth Of what
ever sum 1t raises. Mr., Towne hopes
that the country will raise enough to
give the national organization Its full
S10O, 100000 over and above what the
chapters retain.
The Red Cross ig compelled to raise
its fund from the people because It has
60 small an endowment fund--less thar
s2,0oO,o ,o0o--while Japan, for instance
has more than S19ooo,ooo IN her fund
the income from which pays ell ez
| penses.
The money IS necessary to Keep "
the supplies and equipment oe The lass
hospitals, and sos relief WorL u war.

OUR RED CROSS IS
NOT AIDING ENEMY
NATIONS NOWADAYS

Patriotic Americans who have been
helping the Red Cross have Of late
been making anxious inquiries as TO
whether the humanity and the neutral
ity Of the Red Cross would constrain 1t
to send food, medicines and hospital
units to Germany.
T want to give to help our boys, and
the stricken people Of France and Bel
GUM and Serbia" many one has
written in; ''but I don't feel like doing
anything if the Germans get part OF IT,
Americans need be under no appfe'
hensiou. Not cent Of Red Cross con-
tributions is going to Germany, or has
gone there since the war was declared
by the United States. General Per-
shing has gone to Europe to convey TO
the kaiser Uncle Sans compliments in
the form Of shells and American bay
onets. but the Red Cross has no part in
that except to care for such Of Cen
eral Pershlng's men as may need care.
The matter Of sending Red Cross
supplies to Germany was brought up
| in the recent Red Cross war council IN
| Washington, Charles D. Norton, one
of the members, answered inquiries
thus:
"The answer is exceedingly simple.
! We do not purpose to be tried Tor trea-
son, We do moi purpose to lend aid
and comfort to our enemies, We mean
to attend our own American Red Cross
| affair
Former President Taft, who is chair.
man Of the executive committee, cup.
ported this view. He said that when
wounded Germans fell into the hands
Ct the American Red Cross they will
get the sans treatment as cur oWn
men; tut that !. would undoubtedly
b traaso, to serd supplies to Germany
as We did before we were forced trta
| tie Wsr.
| So A-a::.ca1s cl1 give freely, know
.1g that every cent IS 20. our own aud
our allies wounded, AID not for the

Minister'S Pay.

It is all old story that ministers
are poorly paid. How Poorly
paid they are however, is made
quite impressive by a statistical
table in recent issue OF the
Lutheran. presents the aver"
age salaries Of ministers of GER
tain denominations and the aver
age wages paid workers in GER
tain occupations.
The table shows that Southern
Baptist ministers receive all
average wage of 1894 a year
But carpet and rugmakers earn
1925.
The Northern Baptist is better
treated than the ,Southerner-he
gets $685.. But moving picture
men average $1,913.
There is not as great discrep-
ancy between the pay of Northern
and Southern Methodist minis
ters. The former average SAL
and the latter 1851. But soap
makers make $l,107, billiard
table makers $1,511 and pencil
81 makers 81, $3.50.
y The Unitarian are the bes
average paid. They get 1921
Protestant Episcopal, Universal
ist, Presbyterian (Nor'h) Re
formed Church, Congregational
Presbyterian (South), and Luth'
eran follow in the order named
What is remarkable is that sc
few ministers leave the pulpi
despite the beggarly compensa
ton they receive. Even a minis
ter must follow his calling unde
difficulties when he is filled wit
perplexity as to how he Cal
stretch his meager stipend t
cover the cost of the most modes
living.
The churches ought to do bet
ter by those who serve them S
faithfully,-Daily States, june
