ment are in Chicago, where an agi-
tation recently started to mobilize
the patriotic forces of the country
to raise the sum of 100000.
There are three parts to the plan:
to purchase and provide for the
upkeep of Oyster Bay, Long Is
land, Roosevelt's home, as memo
rial; to erect a monument to the
ex-president in Washington, D. c.;
to erect a monument to him in
Chicago.
To carry this out everyone in
the United States will be called
upon to contribute in some meas
ure. Large contributions are not
to be particularly solicited, but the
help Of every person who finds it
possible to get himself into the
patriotic endeaVor is desired. Sub
scriptions will be asked in all
schools. for every student, as we'll
as every other person, should have
a feeling of pride at being able to
contribute to such a movement.
The small coin from the large num-
Der Of contributors Is Just as ef-
fective as the large check from the
limited number.

property, and the belief is that this
has already been done. although
definite information could not be
obtained yesterday in the absence
of Commodore Beaumont. The
story is that Commodore Beaumont
has bought the property in his
own name, either for the club or
as a gift to the club.
Prohibition has had no effect on
the popularity Of the banquet, ac-
cording to the manager Of the ban
quet department of one of the lead
ing Broadway hotels, who says that
despite the absence of champagne
and liquor, more applications for
reservations have been received
than at any time in the hotels his
tory
This demand for reservations, -
the manager said, " is Just as sur
prising to hotel men as it will be
to outsiders. We anticipated a great
decrease in the number of ban
quets, because we believed cham
payne and liquor as necessary IN
gradients for a banquet as the food
itself. People apparently are max
ing the best of the situation with
characteristic American spirit"

New York, Oct. 15-The boar
OF education has asked for the tidy
little sum OF $S7.147, 56126 to run
and properly improve New York
city schools next year. This is an
increase OF not quite $40,000,0O0
Mover last years expenses. The
item that shows the chief advance
over last years budget is for build
ing. Because of the war and the
incidental scarcity Of labor and
material, practically no building
was done under the old budget
Now the board requires $26,889, 496
for its 1920 building program. An
other item OF $1,500,O0O is for a
proposed new board OF education
building. The increase for purely
educational purposes over the last
budget is 81, 100000. ApprOpria-
tions are also asked for the forma-
ton OF new high schools in Brook
Ign and Manhattan. The general
school fund out Of which salaries
OF teachers and executives must be
paid amounts to $44,328.952, an in
crease over 1919 OF S4,168,204.
To justify fits proposed building
program the board issued state
ment showing the attendance Of
part time and full time pupils in
the elementary, high, vocational
and training schools OF the city, II
was shown that on Sept. 9. this
year, the school registration OF full
time pupils was S37.306. an in
crease of 1857 over 1918. On the
same date this year there were S.
sos part time pupils in the schools.

ORGANIZE TO
BRING AID TO
! JEWS OF EAST
Rock Island Business Men In En-.
thusiastic Gathering at Noon at
Chamber Of Commerce.

A representative gathering OF
business men at the Chamber OF
Commerce at noon today enthusiast
tically took it upon themselves to
conduct a local campaign for the
raising of funds for Jewish relief
in the stricken portion of eastern
Europe.
Mayer Levi presided as chair
man of the meeting. Committee Of
1cers were named as follows: Ben
Stewart, chairman; F. ". Bender.
secretary; DR.. A H KaIman, as
sistant secretary; J. L. Vernon,
treasurer. These men were au-
thorized to name vice chairmen
and such other campaign officers
as are needed to perfect the or
ganization-
In a brief talk, Mr. Levi called
attention to the fact that not alone
laws but all classes and creeds are
actively identified in the organiza-
10 ntO raise the funds
The campaign, NATIONWIDE. in its
scope, is to start Oct 26 and to
continue for one week. In that
time it is hoped to raise S35,000,-
BOO.
W G. Roger, organizer from the
state headquarters at Champaign,
was present at the meeting, which
was arranged by Mayer Levi and
F. W. Bender. secretary of the
Chamber of Commerce.
Mr. Roger pointed out that the
undertaking is absolutely non-sec-
tartan in its character. All Classes
and creeds are aligning for the
succor of suffering humanity. In
the beginning it is true, the agita-
! ton was started by the National
Jewish organization. but is being
pushed to ultimate success by Gen
tiles.
Mr.. Rogers story Of the misery
existing among the Jews of the
stricken nations conveyed to the
comfortable business men the pic
ture Of little children and babies
dying from starvation; of wounded
and sick men in hospitals" that
are not hospitals. Conditions in
these places are so crowded that
in some instances two men in the
very shadow of death are forced
to lie upon a single cot, hardly
large enough for one. 1t is stated
by those who have been sent by
the Red Cross that hardly a child
between the ages OF 1 and has
survived thus far. All means of
fighting disease has been used, and
today medicine IS unknown, even
in the hospitals. Wounded men
have nothing but paper to cover
their wounds.
II is this unparalleled situation
in modern times that has touched
the heart strings of the world and
opened the gates through which
will pour a flood of dollars.
State Quota.
The quota for the state of 1lli-
nois is S3,000,000 Chicago is ex-
pected to raise at least one-half
this amount.
Rock Island county has a quota
but the campaign will be conduct
ed without making public the ex-
amount. 1t is felt that when the
campaign ends it will be shown
that the people here will have gone
far and above the quota.
4 The headquarters for the county
will be at the Rock Island Cham
Der of Commerce. Moline is en-
gagged in organization to solicit the
upper end Of the county and Rock
Island Will take care of the lower
district. This arrangement has al
ways proved a winner in any I'M
dertaking.
