Your local Red Cross is in receipt
of letters from officers at American

Christmas day, and one delivered into
the hands of each of the soldiers at

The Seattle Star In its issue of De-
cember Goth prints on its front page
all offer of $500 reward to anyone who
will prove the stories rejecting upon
the Red Cross. Here is chance for
someone to make easy money.
You have heard the stories of the
officers in the Notwithstanding member
ships-who got commission. These
stories are false in every detail.
You have heard the stories which
tried to brand every worker in the
Red Cross as war CRATER.
Stories of graft and dishonesty In
connection with the Red Cross are lies
and are originated by traitors to in
jure the Red Cross society and to dis
allusian their workers. These false
stories are carried by fools every single
story has been proven false. The next
time anyone tries to peddle a Red
Cross lie to you-just tell him to prove
it and get $500 reward
Every dollar you give to the Red
Cross goes into the great humanitarian
task that faces the organization.
A letter received recently from
Frank L. Crosby of the 161st Inf. and
written from Camp Mills, says:
