Waverly Briggs of St. Louis, assist ant to George w. Simmons, manager of the Southwestern division. There precinct in the five states of the di- vision, the campagn will be pushed from the pulpit and there will be thousands of opportunity meetings, meaning Red Cross speaking, when ever and wherever, even a small num- Der of persons can be gathered togeth- CT for the purpose.
 At an enthusiastic luncheon which followed the conference Captain Vick- CTS fthe eightv-first Scots Brigade aroused the delegates to high pitch of enthusiasm by recounting the valor of British troops in the first days of the war and by telling of the aoble work which the Red Cross has done for the armies of the allies.
 t'It would be impossible for the allies to win but for this york;" Cap tain Vickers declared after. telling how when he was shot down with 80,000 of his companions, he was picked up by Red Cross man. carried from the field on a Ded Cross stretcher, taken to a Red Cross hospital, operated on by Red Cross surgeon, taken to Lon don on a Red Cross ship, and after convalescence had progressed suffic- iently to enable him to leave, sent ava with blessing upon his head and Red Cross money in his pocket.
 Ut is just such work as this that you must do for your own American soldiers to enable them to do the grim work which you are sending them over there to do. It would be a crime, worse than crime for you to fail. Go into the approaching campaign with the knowledge that you are do ing enc of the noblest works it is pos sible for you to do. Do not think when you approach man for a con- tributon that you are asking him for favor You are not. You merely are giving him an opportunity to do what is his privilege"
 Johnson, Lebeaume Briggs, and Captaain Vickers departed this even ing fer Houson, Texas, where another conference will be held Monday.

CHICAGOANS GLOIMY
 OVER WAR OUTLOOK

Those people, up there in Chicago, take most serious view of the war situation," said A. D. Foster, cashier of the Merchants and Planters bank yesterday, shortly after he and Mrs
 Foster had returned from Chicago, where they went to see their son, Attorney Cliff B. Foster who volun- teered for service in the army some months ago. Young Foster has been transferred from the quartermaster corps to the Eighth regular division, Motor Supply train, and is now sta- toned at Detroit. MT. and Mrs. Eos ter were accompanied to Chicago by Mrs. J. B. Speers, who remained in the Windy City to visit other friends. ;.
 "I don't know why it is," continued Mr. Foster, with reference to the war views of Chicago people, "but the news printed in the Chicago papers is altogether different from what we get in the papers in this section. don't know if it is politics-the pa- pers are Republican-but they are continuously pointing out shortcomings and defects in our war preparations. :"

DRAFT .SLACKERS CAUSE OTHER MEN
 ID BE DRAFTED
Board Official Warns Delin- quents Who Fail to Re
 port When Called.

The draft slackers" who fail to report for duty when called for mili- tary service not only lay themselves liable to severe punishment, but the;r failure cause men further down on the registration lists to be called be- fore their time. Consequently, says Chief Clerk Ben Harvey of local board No. 2. it is to the interest of every man on the registration lists to port on time. Mr. Harvey is today publishing list of five men who have failed to report for service when called. He points out that be- cause of the failure of these men, five other men, who otherwise would not have had to go to war yet. have been Already sent to camp to complete the boards quota. He is also publishing a list of men, who are subject to in- mediate military service, who have failed to report for their physical ex- animation.
 Under the draft rules men who fail to report when called are technically deserters and liable to the severe punishment meted out to destrters A man becomes part of the military establishment as soon as called, and his failure to appear is an offense against the federal government Up to this time the boards have been disposed to be lenient with these slackers, but as Mir. Harvey points out, whenever leniency is shown such a man, some innocent man has to take his place in the fighting line before his time.
 Mr. Harvey urges that every man on the registration lists assist the beard in seeing that men called to reports. ;n time both for physical ex- animation and military service. and thus protect those who rightly should be allowed more time at their home

Campaign Chairman Ad- dresses War Workers
 in Little Rock.
PATRIOTISM MUST
 BE POCKET DEEP"
This is What ]. l.. Johnson Says of Red Cross Funds Driye-Has Saved Thousands of Amer
 ican Lives.
lSnecial to The Graphic.l

Little Rock, Ark, April 13-"Pa- triotism to be flag high. has got to be pocket deep.' J. L. Johnson, presi- dent of the Liberty bank of St. Louis, and chairman of the second war fund campaign of the American Red Cross in the southwestern division, made this statement at an enthusiastic meet ing of Arkansas Red Cross workers here today. The meeting was the first of series of state conferences for the purpose of explaining the import of and plans for the campaign which will begin two weeks after the close of the Third Liberty loan campaign. The Red Cross campaign will be for one hundred million dollars and of this amount the Southwestern division, comprising Arkansas, Missouri, Kan sas Oklahoma, and Texas, must raise $7 500,O0O or seven and five tenths per cent of the total.
 Johnson was greeted with cheers when he opened the conference this morning Many of the one hundred men and women present worked with him and he led the Red Cross Christ mas membership campaign in the Southwest last year. In greeting the Arkansas workers, Johnson declared, "No man who knows what is being done by the Red Cross, no man with any degree of patriotism, can refuse to give in the forthcoming campaign. If we got $103,000,000 last June with out any organization, what will we do this time?"
 Louis La Beaume, of St. Louis, pub itcliy director of the Southwestern di- vision, explained the publicity plans for the campaign, told how the SOS, 100000 collected last June had been spent and declared that for every soldiers life saved in France thru the splendid work which has been done there, the life of at least one American soldier had been saved,
 How the message of the Red Cross will be carried to every man, woman and child was explained by George

 When he visited his parents in Chi cago, Cliff Foster had just returned from Baltimore, to which city he and other members of his command had taken a large fleet of motor trucks MT. Foster said Cliff Foster has gain ed weight and strength since he en- tered the srvice, and says that all the soldiers are "keen for chance" at the Huns.
