RELIEF WORK MUST BE CONTINU
ED FOR MONTHS

Now that the war is won, many
Oroville citizens are asking why the
Red Cross is planning to enroll the
entire population of the city as men,
bers the week before Christmas.
Chairman Fred Hart Of the local
executive committee of the Red Cross
Christmas Roll Call organization
makes the following reply:
Starvation, sickness and sorrow did
not vanish in Europe when the fight
ing ceased. On the contrary, the new
conditions have revealed greater op-
portunities for the American people
through the Red Cross, to extend re-
lief. This work is just as imperative
in peace as in war, though not SO
dramatic.
Besides, Oroville boys in France or
in home camps, with millions of other
American soldiers, and sailors have
right to expect that Red Cross serv-
ice will be continued for them in full
measure until rehabilitation is COM
pleted. This means the Fed Cross
must carry on for many months, and
the money raised through member
ship dues will help finance the serv-
ice.''
All that is asked of any adult in the
Fed Cross Christmas Roll Call is that
he or she shall have "a heart and =
dollar" When you multiply these
hearts and dollars by the nnl:i,ns OF
adults in the United States. 1t is evil
dent that substantial total will be
raised if the response to the Roll Call
Is general.
Children will not be soli2ited, as
they already are represented in the
school auxiliaries, or will enroll
through the auxiliaries at twenty-five
cents year. but they will oe valuable
aids in the Roll Call by reminding
their parents of the opportunity tc
register approval of the greatest relief
work in the history of the world
