ter, fails in its ultimate mission Just
as does government when only support
ed by few of the people. The bur-
den for Rock Islands war and local
charities has in the past been cared
for by about fifteen hundred people
Why should this condition exist except
that 1t is practice which the gen.
eral public has drifted into. Why not
put all of our activities on a sound
business basis of contributing to one
fund and then prorating among the
various organizations the amounts
necessary for their activities? In sub
scribing to the Patriots fund every
citizen will be doing his duty for his
country, his city. for justice, humanity.
"The question has been asked
whether or not subscribers to the Pat
riots fund will be called upon to sub
scribe to any other local or war &C
Invites. This can best be answered by
saying that subscribers subscribing
to the Patriots fund do so with the
distinct understanding that they will
not be called upon to contribute to any
other local or war charities for the
period of one year. In every case the
solicitor should be referred to the
board of trustees of the Patriots fund.
Citizens and business men should not
let themselves be solicited for any
contributions whatsoever other than a
religious character. The Patriots fund
is caring for all charitable needs of
the community and if the charity is
worthy it will not have trouble getting
support from this fund"
The publicity committee will shortly
place in the hands of every citizen Of
the city a pamphlet outlining every
phase of the Patriots fund, what it is
and whom it serves. This pamphlet is
designed to answer any and all CUES
tons pertaining to the fund.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1918-02-19

The publicity committee of the
Patriots fund held a meeting last
evening and outlined a plan Of giving
the fund the greatest publicity posi-
BILE.
The plans include the giving of the
message of the Patriots fund to every
man, woman and child in Rock Island
through various mediums. Three col
or cards will be furnished each sub
scriber to the Patriots fund which
will take its place alongside the ser
vice flag, food card, etc, and it can
safely be said that at the close OF the
campaign practically every residence
in the city will show one of these
cards.
The trustees of the Patriots fund
held a meeting yesterday afternoon
and passed on various phases OF the
plan and everything is now in readl-
ness for theactual work. AS a COM
parison of what Rock Island will be
called upon to do. Rome. N. Y. a city
of 5000 population. can be cited as an
example. The goal was $30o,O0O per
wear for the duration of the war,
which is 81 per month for every man.
woman and child in Rome. In the
campaign just closed Rome went over
the top and instead of raising S300,000
it was found a total fund of $35O,OO0
was raised, and it is expected that
$50. 900 more will be raised from those
not seen or out Of the city. Thus.
Rome said to the boys over there. I'VE
wish YOU the best Of luck. Give 'em
hell. for we have the money to do our
hit" Rock Island will deliver the
same message.
The following appeal is made:
Shall it be said that Rome, city
smaller than Rock Island, is more
patriotic, more liberal. more generous
than Rock Island. Decidedly no, and
the result Of the forthcoming cam
paign will tell the story. Ii Rome
can raise s350,0O Rock Island should
raise $500 900. But We need only $1s5.-
OOO TO cover our actual needs for
wear In this connection 1t might be
stated that the fund raised in Rome
&c for war activities only and does not
cover local conditions, while the fund
To he raised in this city covers every
thing in the way Of local and war &C
tiyities. The Patriots fund will con-
centrate all Of our war activity So
licitations in one drive; will have one
disbursing agency for all such funds F;
will eliminate spurious or unworthy
nseudo-war solicitation. For ROCK Is
land the Patriots fund will make all
subscriptions to the Red Cross, the
Young Mems Christian association
knights OF Columbus and all local
worthy activities during the war
"The question has been asked why
such Il plan is needed. II is neeaed
because the support of war charities
and the city philanthropic institutions
is a responsibility which the people OF
the community cannot shirk and
sbould not be the responsibility OF any
