How Was the Last War Fund Spent?

iS d ,alI questlon-and 1t is fairly answered in the ue'ahed ana temized reports that have been pub msned Tn the newspapers of every town and city of s the land 0''' - .s You never saw it7 Then ask at the nearest Red cross Chapter write for the Red Cross wants YOU 10 Know where your money went ~~ They say that Red Cross supplies have way of coming through on time
 Italy surely has found us not wanting in promnt. ness Whef her grea trial came
 And Roumana-they said no allied nation could get through to help her dire need
 But the Red Cross tound Q sCay
 It's not always cheap way-"Needs must" costs money But did you give that money to bg saSed-or to save lives? Are you not willing to pay five dollars or ffy to bring something of comfort to war racked tortured mortal who but for you would surely die?
 And of one thing you may be sure Not ore penny of Maf Hundred Million has gone for anything bm Tar Relief
 In the Red Cross there is no high salaried bureau cracy, no extravagant administration expense All of the higher officials and tenths of the workers are unpaid volunteers The cost of raising and collecting the last War Fund was about one-haf of one per cent. than covered by the banking interest on the money
 Your Red Cross needs another hundred million to tighten just little of the awful load of misery over there Your share is all that you can give-and then little more
