Reports from Salem's forty-one
districts show that the fourth an
nual Red Cross roll call bids fair
to be one of the most successful
conducted since the return of the
organization to a peace time basis
Although active solicitation did
not begin until November II, rapid
progress has been made and It is
estimated by local headquarters
that the canvass of Salem proper
will be completed long before the
last day-Thanksgiving.
AS feature of the publicity work
of the renewal work of this season,
special motion picture films are be-
ing shown locally and throughout
the counties of Marion and Polk.
This has attracted, considerable at
tention, as have the two displays
of war photographs in the city.
Work Is Extensive. t
'"The Willamette chapter of the
Red Cross is not a voluntary or
ganization, stated President H.
Meyers today. 'It is branch of
the Aemrican Red Cross and direct
ly governed by that body. 1t is an
integral part of the American gov.
ernmental system and it's accounts
are audited by the war department.
1t is now doing not only military re-
lief work but is actually carrying
on an active campaign of civilian
relief. The Red Cross for Marion
and Polk counties is ready and an
xious to help any person in need,
irregardless of whether they are ex.
soldiers or relations of ex-service

Mueller Says Member

Invitation Would not

Geneva, Nov. 13.-Germany VIII
not make a formal application for
admission to the league of nations,
but would not ignore an invitation
should it be extended by the organ
ization, said Doctor Hermann
Mueller, vice-president of the Tor
eign affairs committee of the Ger
man reichstag, in a statement to
the Journal De Geneve yesterday.
Germany will not ask the as
sembly to admit her to the league
he declared, 'because such an ap-
plication would give rise to, a sharp
discussion in the assembly, for 1t is
known certain states have given i'm
dications they would oppose her
immediate entry. I do not know
whether they have sufficient sup
port to insure the triumph of their
view point, but, however that may
be, such a discussion would not be
without danger to the league itself.
Besides, the German government
does not consider the league In its
present form as perfect. How, In
deed. could it be. since, to mention
only two states 1t includes neither
Russia nor the United States, and
universally is the fundamental
condition of its existence"

Budget Shashes

By Committee

committee of the, city council in
their meeting Friday night found
that a reduction of $4398 would
still have to be made to keep with
in the amount allowed the city for
expenses this year.
Though thet otal must be still
further cut by the council when the
report is brought before 1t at its
regular meeting Monday night,
some of the items are already cut
to a point where the departments
affected will be plactically unable
to function, says Chairman Baum
gardner.
The health department is only al
lowed $3.50, although $500 was
spent last year. The appropriation
for public buildings has been cut,
although the anual insurance pre-
miums have to be met as usual and
the city hall roof needs repairing,
in addition to other items.
~ ss,s Library Fund Cut.
The public library has asked for
$500 more than Is allotted to 1t. No
reduction can, be made on the street
lights, as was suggested, because of
a contract with the light company
which has not expired. However.
no new lights can be granted under
existing conditions.
| Even though all of the taxes
were collected this year for 1920,
the city would run behind, and this
is a condition not to be expected
There was large delinquency list
for 1919, while taxes for the three
years previous have only recently
been collected.
One of the largest cuts was made

are fixed salaries and here no re-
