CONWAY RALLIES TO HONOR WILSON HEARTILY SUPPORT FUND Great President Paid Tribute When
 Gift List Opened-NO
 teers Called

Within two hours after the sub scription list to the Woodrow Will son foundation was opened for Faulk- ner county this morning, $125.50 had | been given to the permanent foun from which awards will be made for meritorious public service, the manner selected by the nation in which ,o honor the war president. Faulkner 5 quota is $400 and the response today lends substance to the belief that the county's citizenship will not be long in reaching the goal. No drive or campaign is remotely considered in connection with the Wilson founda- ton, it being generally believed that the citizenship will voluntarily re- spond in numbers sufficient to secure the full amount.
 To the end that the fund may De a voluntary, popular tribute to the former president the Log Cabin Demo- crat at the suggestion of H. L. Me Alister, director for the county, ap- peals to all thorough going Amer jeans to contribute without solicitation of any kind, with each Wilson admirer giving according to his own judgment. The raising of the fund in this way would be in keeping with the purpose of the foundation. Contributions will be published as reported to the four dation treasurers, Tom Davis at the Bank of Conway, William R. James at the Faulkner County Bank & Trust Company, and R. H. Maddox at the Farmers State Bank.
 Toady's response when the list was opened was spontaneous and without q counterpart since the last of the sue cessful war campaigns. No refusals were met in the course of Mr. Me Allster's brief rounds in the business district. Every one wanted to con- tribute something, and the way has been made open so that gifts offanv amount can be accepted.
 At the schools, as previously an nounced, the amount of contributions Will be limited. Public school pupils Will be limited to 10 cents and stu dents elsewhere to 25 cents. For all other citizens, the way is wide open with no limit.
 In effect. the Woodrow Wilson foundation will be series of Nobel prizes for Americans who have ren- dered meritourious public service. l Recipients of awards win not b5 llm5ed to holders of high office. and &'1i hc made irrcspecti1elv of party lines, just as members of all political parties are among the contributors. ! it will be administered bv a board 35 !. prominent Amarisan men end women with Hamilton Holt of New York as 1 executive director
