CORDOVA RED CROSS
EUNO OVER SI,III
The Red Cross war fund drive ends
tonight, and will greatly exceed the
$100,000,000 asked for. Cordova’s
qtfota is $2,500, but the amount sub
scribed will be in excess of $6,000.
Malcolm Brock, chairman of the lo
cal drive, has received the following
telegram from the Northwest head
quarters at Seattle, under date of Sat
urday:
“Alaska $44,000 on Tuesday even
ing last, and was first ‘over the top’
west of the Rockies, disputing South
Dakota’s claim to be first in the na
tion. Tonight we total $65,000, and
energetic effort of every worker can
close Monday with double quota. No
state surpasses this. Seattle commit
tee has prospects of several thousand
yet. Long, strong pull, and big finish.
Alaska a wonder.”
