The National Republican, the ma.
tional Republican party weekly, pub.
lished at Washington. has now ex-
tended its circulation, 1t is announc-
ed, to ninety per cent OF all the
counties in the country, and the cir
culation is growing at such a rapid
rate that the hope OF party leaders
for million circulation for this ma
tional mouthpiece of Republican op-
inion bids fair to be realized.

at the center OF national events,
prints each week a comprehensive
condensed review of the happenings
bearing upon national and world
politics. gives a survey or pewspape.
and personal opinion on public is
sues. prints the important addresses
and statements OF political bearing.

ceedings of Congress while In session
and Is sort of continuous hand
book Of politics and public affairs.
The idea is unique in Journalism and
has proved immensely popular. The
reader who wishes to keep upon pol
itics can find no better medium for
that purpose.
The Nationai Republican Is pub
lished and actively supported by Re-
publican national leaders, not as a
financial venture. but as a means of
political information and educatio.
deemed especially essential at this
time when the general channels Of
Information are so completely CON.
handed by the party in power. II
carries no advertising despite i1s
large national circulation. 1t prints
weekly some sixty thousand words
OF news and comment.

What The Red
Cross Is Doing
RED CROSS READY
FOR EMERGENCIES

H.R Fardwell. director general
OF military relief for the American
Red Cross. has just left the Mountain
division where he spent ten days In
specting Red Cross work on the Next
can border and then consulted with
Mountain division officials in Denver.
The word that he left behind is
that the Red Cross is prepared for
any eventualities on the border. The
Mountain division department OF sup
plies is assembling all Red Cross ar
ticles which troops may need includ-
ing comfort kits, socks. etc.
While Mr.. Fardwell was In Den
yer, another illustration of the emer-
gency character OF Red Cross work
occurred. A mine disaster in south
ern Colorado killed eighteen men.
Red Cross workers were at the mine
an hour after the explosions and the
first train out of Denver carried the
assistant manager OF the Civilian Re
lief deartment, prepared for any
deeded service.
Coupled with such emergency
work is the peace time program of
the Red Cross to support which the
public will be asked to provide $15-
100000 in the membership cam
paign known as the Third Red Cross
Roll Call, November 2 to II. Fore
most will be nation wide activity for
the promotion of public health and
hand in hand with this crusade will
go a vigorous campaign for the ex-
tension OF the country's nursing re-
sources.
Red Cross Home Service will be
broadened to be OF general usefulness
