Tonight Perth Amboy will open its
second Red Cross war fund drive with
large parade and mass meeting, final
preparations for the drive having been
made at largely attended meeting
held in City Hall last night.
Governor Walter E. Edge will be the
guest of the local Red Cross execu-

remained outside.
