more should he have to do, for chant

who, under the incompatible Fields
tutelage, became the fastest shootin'
lad on the river, only to discover he
was not in love with the girl he thought
he was (Gail Patrick) but her sister
(Joan Bennett), who didn't like rough
citizens and duels. More of q story

r. c. Hanford, president of the Wrangell Chapter of the American Red Cross on Saturday received a telegram from national headquar- ters stating that in order to mee the hourly increasing needs Of the flood victims in eight states of the Ohio and Mississippi valleys, the Red Cross was calling on the people of the United States for a minimum relief fund of two million dollars. AL that time reports received by the Red Cross indicated a total of 275.- O00 men. women and children had been driven from their homes and were dependent upon the Red Gross for emergency relief including food shelter, bedding, medical attention and warm clothing.
 Raging blizzards and freezing weather in many of the flooded sections added to the suffering of the refugees and greatly increased the need for instant relief Wran- gel chapters quota of relief funds asked was set at $40.
 Increasing Needs
 Three days later a telegram not flied AIr. Hanford that because re lief needs were increasing every hour as continued rains sent rivers to highest levels in history with more than 100000 persons driven from home, il was urged that Wran- gel double it's relief quota.
 The American Red Cross, it was stated, had drawn one million dol lars from it's reserve funds. On Mon day 300 Red Cross relief workers were in the disaster areas giving immediate relief to flood refugees and 350 Red Cross nurses in the field engaged in battle against feared epidemics and rescue work continued at top speed.
 Unprecedented Proportions
 On Tuesday the flood suffering had reached unprecedented propor- tions with relief needs steadily mounting and every possible mem Der of the national Red Cross staff was assigned to the field for relief duty. Chapters were asked to raise five times the original quota as
