ACCOUNTING IS
GIVEN FOR YEAR
BY RED CROSS
Many Hear of Great Work Ac-
complished by Loyal
Women Workers

| Harrisburg's Red Cross drive was
opened last night with meeting
of all the workers in the Chestnut
Street Auditorium at which DR.
Stockton Axson, national secretary
of the Red Cross. was the principal
speaker.
Workers early this morning began
their canvass to enroll $4,000 men,
bers and $4,000 in the third roll
call of the Red Cross. Every effort
will be made to close the campaign
by Thursday noon. but if the men,
berships are not secured by that
time the campaign will be extended.
DR.. AXson explained that the cam
patgn this year was not so much one
to raise money as it was to bind the
people together in an organization
which must be made permanent
militia of mercy"
In addition to opening the roll
call drive the meeting was held in
connection with the annual session
of the Harrisburg Red Cross. Mrs.
Lyman d. Gilbert, the chairman,
read her report, and the other Off
GERS SuDHlILeQ QeJalle0 accounts Oh
the activities of the various depart
ments. All the present officers and
directors were reelected.
DR.. Axson, after commencing the
Red Cross for it's service in the war,
told of the small organization be-
fore the war, and of the rapid
growth after the break between the
United States and Germany.
Now the aim of the Red Cross is
to aid civilians who need help DR..
Axson explained. The public health
of the nation will be safeguarded
now. Each year 100000 babies die,
there are 100000 deaths from tu-
berculosis, and there are thousands
of other preventable deaths and dis
eases. One of the plans of the or
ganization is to reduce the child
death rate.
Better home conditions is another
aim and the Red Cross will work
for better hygienic conditions and
making homes more comfortable he
said. A first-aid program to render
service in case of accidents is an
other activity which is to be extend
ed.
William Jennings, campaign chair
man, issued final instructions last
night, and told the workers to see
every man and woman in Harris
burg. They are to get $4,000 mem
bers at 81 each and in addition sub
scriptions to the 100000 fund.

ss,Ooo,OOO IN PLACER GOLD

The value of the placer gold pro-
duced in Alaska in 1918 was about
$5,900,000. The decrease in 1918
was general throughout the Terri
tory, except in the Copper River and
'Yentna districts and some of the
smaller Yukon districts. The de-
crease was due mainly to curtail-
ment of operations because of short
age of labor, high cost of supplies,
and uncertainty as to future con-
ditions. Local decreases were due
also to unfavorable climatic con-
ditions and to the depletion of some
of the richer placers.
1t is estimated by the United States
Geological Survey, Department of the
Interior, that about 574 placer mines
we're operated in the summer Of
1918 and 153 during the previous
winter, but many for only a part of
the season. About 5000 men were
engaged in productive placer mining
in the summer and 613 in the winter.
In addition several hundred men
were engaged in prospecting or other
nonproductive work relating to
placer mining.
