Membership Drive
Red Cross Campaign Opened Today
and Big Progress Made

Membership in the Red Gross means
that vcu are helping to support Ame-
rican ideals.
An active campaign fer the renewal
cf memberships was started today by
the committees representing A!eXan-
dria Chapter. Hundreds Of member
ships were scld by women stationed
in. the banks and stores.
The war work of the local chapter
is creditahle history and its Home Ser
vice Work since the signing OF the
A,miStice makes a continuance most
desirable,
Pecple are now adjusting them
selves to after war con:Etlons. Sol
d;ers and sailors returning home have
dcpepded upcn the Red Cross for in
foIrn. ten Of genera! character. for
legal advice; for medical attention;
for the location of families and former
friends. and in many instances for
funds. An energetic and capable or
ganizatEon has met ali these demands.
Your Dollar Membership has made all
this work possible and now the ques-
ton prt to every citizen IS this: Can
commursty the size Of ours fail to
support work Of this character which
should and must be continued? The
opportunity for service is to be ap-
preciated and the Red Cross is an or
ran:zation for service during peace
times as well as war times.
There is no greater testimonial 70
character than the Willingness OF the
men and women working for Red
Cross Membership of three thousand.
Many citizens vii! seek one Of the
marv committees ard ask for re-
ceipt for One Dollar. In doing tbs
vcu do your part and lessen the work
for the conln,6ttee.

the attention Of delegates yesterday
at the general session of the Ameri-

Cox Asks Retraction
Denies That He Demands League
"Just As MIR. Wilson Wrote It..

Bridgeport, Conn, Oct. 2l.-
Governor Cox, of Ohio, sent yester-
day telegram to Elihu Root, ask
inp him to correct" what the Demo-
cratic candidate declared was a
"false" statement in Mr.. Roots ad-
dress Tuesday regarding the Cover
nor's position upon the League OF
Nations issue.
The Governor denied Mr.. Roots
statement that he demands the
League "iust as Mr.. Wilson negotl-
ated it," and called upon Mr.. Root
for retraction.
In making public his telegram to
Mr.. Root, Governor Cox issued a
statement declaring that Mr.. Root
and 30 other prominent Republicans
signing the recent statement in be-
half of Senator Harding, the Repuo-
lican nominee, were attempting to
deceive the voters because they are
permitting their partisanship to rise
above their patriotism and trusting
perhaps that the last wobble of Sen
ator Harding may be in their direc-
ton"
Governor Cox restated his propos-
al to accept any reservations "help-
full to the League and contended
! therefore. that Mr.. Root had made a
statement (which the records show
