CAPITAL LAPLATA
FUND NEARS $1,000
Money to Be Put With That
Collected in Maryland to
Aid Stricken Families.

La Plata's tornado relief fund as
contributed by readers of The Star
Is nearing $4,000 and this amount,
with that collected by the residents
of Charles and Prince George Coun-
ties, Md, will be turned over to the
Red Cross and diSbursed after a
meeting tomorrow at La Plata of the
relief committee of that place under
State Senator Walter Mitchell, and
Red Cross officers. under G. b.
Gwin, who is directing relief for
the national organization.
While the two funds will total far
less than the needed $25, 900 for imme-
date relief work. the money on hand
tomorrow will be proportioned among
the families in most grave need, as
shelter Of their own and without
funds, by virtue of the complete de-
structi0n of their stocked barns, with
which to begin construction Of new
houses.
Twenty-Five Farms Hit.
Twenty-Five farms were hit by the
storm, and, while some of these suf-
fered the loss of only the house. most
OF them recorded destruction of all
outbuildings as we'll.
NoI only are tne farmers In need
OF funds for relief, but there are many
dWellers OF the small towns of La
Plata and Cedarville who have suf-
fered losses they cannot hope to re.
pair without outside aid, and in these
cases there is absolute need for re-
lief. Undertakers' and hospital bills
for the families of the children of the
La Plata schoolhouse, which was de-
molished with heavy loss Of life, are
also burdening many.
Cheerful reports were received
from each of the Washington hos
pttals which have La Plata's injured
school children as patients. Provi-
dence. Chtldren's and Emergency each
announced that the youngsters in
their care were improved this morn
