NORTHWEST EXCLUDED FROM
NEXT RED CROSS DRIVE

Although the American Red Cross
is asking this year $15, 100000 with
which to complete its war job as home
and abroad. not one penny for this
purpose will be asked of Red Cross
enthusiasts in Minnesota, North and
South Dakota and Montana, according
to an announcement made today at
Northern Division headquarters, 423
South Fifth street, Minneapolis.
The reason for this is that the
Northern Division has already sent to
national headquarters surplus funds
amounting to $1,000,000, which is ap-
proximately one-third more than the
the quota set for this division. It is
possible that local chapters of these
four Northwest states will solicit
funds for their own maintenance.
A campaign will be waged to obtain
sc, 900 Red Cross magazine subscrip-
lions during the 'Roll Call" between
November and II. inclusive, when it
is proposed to enroll 100000 Red Cross
members in the Northern Division,
There will no longer be magazine mem
berships The magazine will be sold
separately and on its merits, Nation
ally the aim is to procure 100000
memberships and 100000 magazine
| subscriptions.
