RED GROSS FUND
 1 BEHIND LAST YEAR
S,M in Ruck, According to
 Reports Made Today

The Red Cross roll call fund is tagging according to reperts today. and ii more than $2.oo0 behind tho mark it had reached this time last year. On November 16. 1927 the roll call fund had reached a total of s2.200. Yesterdays report was only ss1O. One.year ago today the fund had reached the mark. of approxi- mately $500. Today's report bare- ly goes over the thousand mark.
 Red Cross officials are at a loss to account for the slowing up of funds. The drive for the relief of Florida and West Indies hurricane victims, which has not yet officially closed. puts the Red Cross in the unique if not embarrassing position of conducting two drives at the same time. This is reflected in the result. Treasurer Leon A. Sprague and Roll Call Director Arnold Mills have re- ceived letters from people who thought their checks for the storm relief included the membership fee.
 One condition which might have had tendency to slow up the drive this year is the fact that store and factory reports have not yet come in.
 The fund stands today as follows: Quota .......... $5,00O.0O Yesterdays total $S10.S9
 Today's receipts 2oo.7o
 Total to date .... 1.01l.6S
