Red Cross in this county, received
the following which we are publish
ing at his request, and we are also
in this manner helping to bring a
very important matter and an ur-
gent need before the people for their
considerations:
To the people of Ohio: Earth
quake and fire in Japan have not
only destroyed an appalling amount
of life and property, but have left
multitudes of suffering men, women
and children in danger of death
from starvation and exposure. Amer
lea fortunately is in a position to
render practical and prompt relief,
and the President has called upon
the people of the United States to
send subscriptions of money at once
for the Japanese Relief Fund of the
American Red Cross. I know the
people of Ohio fully realize the need
of immediate assistance, and am
sure they will respond literally to
the call Of the President.
AS Governor of Ohio, therefore,
I ask the people of this state to send
subscriptions at once to the local
chapters of the Red Cross in the re-
spective cities and counties of Ohio,
or directly to. the American Red
Cross at Washington.
