DIVIDENDS BY ATLAS
AND HERCULES COS.

One OF the strongest pleas yet
made in behalf Of the S1o0,000'OOO
fund which the Red Cross War coun-
Gill will raise next week was made
yesterday in the letter In which
Pierre s. DUPONT announced to stock
holders Of the DUPONT Company that
a dividend OF 1 per cent. had been
declared for the benefit Of the Red
Cross. In this letter he said:
1T Is incumbent upon the citizens
OF the United States to support the
American National Red Cross In the
burden OF work and responsibility
thrust upon them by the state OF war
now existing between the United
States and the Imperial German gov
ernment. Words are inadequate TO
describe the terrible cond tion OF af-
fairs along the fighting line In Eur
ope. Hunger and disease are adding
their toll 10 the horrors that are
brought about by the necessity OF at
tending numberless wounded under
circumstances that make proper and
humane care impossible. To relieve
the people who have borne such heavy
burdens and TO save our own country
men from similar conditions is the
work OF the American National Red
Cross. It is our duty TO remove the
only obstacle to their success. Money
is and will be needed in amounts
heretofore unthought Of. To those
whose hearts are with the men at the
front appeal is unnecessary; 10 those
who have not yet felt that personal
interest. It is only necessary to hear
firsthand OF the experiences OF those
