THE RED CROSS ROLL CALL.

The annual roll call" of the
American Red Cross which open.
ed on Armistice day and SEIZED
uled to continue until Thanks
giving, is well timed. The minds
and the hearts of America are
filed with memories of the war.
Events, crowding fast, one after
the other. have given the lie to
the assertion that we have been
swift to forget the tragic lesson
of Yesterday. And it is natural
that as America thinks of those
terrific days and their effect up
on the future, our thoughts
should include tn, American
Red Cross.
The history Of the war service
Of those who, under an insignia
which has become the world
wide symbol for succor rendered
in pity and understanding and
friendship, demands no re-
haarsal. The memory thereof is
still fresh. The truths which to.
day demand the attention of the
nation are other than those
which concern the Red Cross
and the war. They deal with
the achievements of the organl-
cation since the return Of the
American armies from overseas.
For it is upon this basis, rather
than upon the capitalization OF
var record. that the support Of
the public for the future must be
sought. And with its record for
the past year in its hands the
Red Cross justly sounds its roll
call for the year which is ahead
with pride and confidence.
That record establishes the
fact that during each month of
the year in question the Red
Cross has been in touch with an
average of 1885, 15 ex-service
men and their families. 1t shows
that today the organization is
providing service costing $10,-
100000 year to veterans of the
war; that 1853 nurses have
been furnished the public health
service; that 500,445 children
have been inspected for physical
defects and means of their cor
reetion re recommended; that So,
00O,0O0 has been contributed to
the starving children of Europe
and 5000, 900 garments made for
distribution among them; that
10000 in relief has been sent
to famine stricken China, assist
ance rendered in seventy disas-
tiers in the United States and $50
health centers established
throughout the country.
That record is the recommen-
dation OF the American Red
Cross for the continued support
support of the nation. Dedica-
ted to the service of those who
suffer-" the organization is no
less splendidly equipped for the
needs of today and tomorrow
than it was for those Of the yes.
terdays in which it's workers
won the heartfelt gratitude of
of America for war services
faithfully and heroically per
formed.
Charles countians cannot and
should not make but hearty re-
Spouse as the roll is called.

KENTUCKY OIL RESERVE
04,0e3,OOO BARRELS

Frankfort, Ky, Dec. 2S.-Kentuc-
ky's known reserves of crude petro.
leum total approximately 94,963, 200
barrels, according to estimates pre-
pared by DR.. Willard Rouse Jlllson,
director of the Kentucky Geological
Survey for the Geological Society of
America, which opened its annual
meeting at Amherst, Mass, today.
The society is endeavoring to ascer-
tain the oil reserves of tie United
States.
DR.. Jillson in announcing the esti-
mate said that he considered only the
known oil pools and attempted no
forecast of the finding of other pools
The known pools in the State at the
present rate of production. he said,
should run out about 1880.
The production of oil in the State,
the estimates show since 1888 when
the first records were kent, up to the
present time totals 44.S55,3OO bar
rels.
DR.. Jillson said that the reaching
of the total estimated reserves of the
State was a hard task, because of the
fact that production is now so near
the peak. The largest production
ever reached was m 1919 when o.
226.473 barrels were produced, while
in 1929 the production d"opped, due
to a drop in the production of the Big
field to S,546,O27 barrels.
This year however. the production
rose to S,7S1,O0O barrels. due to in
creases in the production OF the john
n-Magoffin and Warren County
fields. Discovery of new pool might
result in production jumping 70
high figure for a year or two. he said,
but he expressed the opinion that his
estimates would not be far from
right if one could review them at ;he
end OF the period ending ii 1850.
