FOR CORPUS CHRISTI
City Has Not Awakened to Urgency
Of Necessity for Help.

Because the amount contributed to
the Corpus Christi fund is pitifully in
adequate, the committee in charge of
the campaign has not yet answered the
desperate appeal received In Richmond
Wednesday. The total received by the
banks OF the city was slightly more
than $400 last night,
Believing that the city is not yet
fully alive to the great responsibility
which has been thrust upon It and that
it will finally justify It's nationwide
reputation for generosity, the commit
tee has decided to hold the sum re-
ceived until Monday night.
The banks will give the movement
greater publicity by means Of posting
placards appealing for aid and desfK

tions will be received Rtchmon
