WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.—
Each of the 500,000 Elks of the
country is giving $2 towards a
($1,000,000 fund for base hospi
tals back of the American lines
in France. A special commis
sion of the lodge has author
ized the assessment.
A $60,000 appropriation has
been made by the Elks’ War
relief commission to purchase
equipment for the Red Cross
Base hospitals, which is being
organized in connection with
the University of Virginia.
Each base hospital has a
'daff of at least 26 physicians,
two dentists, and 65 Red Cross
nurses. A number of Red
■Cross base hospitals have been
organized, which have not as
yet raised sufficient funds for
the purchase of necessary
equipment. Among these are
the base hospitals at San Fran
cisco, Portland, Richmond, At
lanta, Baltimore, Charlottes
ville, Lexington, Brooklyn.
This equipment costs $60,000.
The movement to raise $1,-N
000,000 was decided upon by
the Elks following a meeting
of the Grand Lodge at Boston
i^i July, when a commission
was appointed to decide upon
some patriotic war service.
The administration of this
fund, Which is now being rais
ed has been delegated to the
. Elks’ War Relief commission,
j which decided upon the plan to
’ coopcratAvitli the Red Cross.

—Federal reserve notes and
other forms of currency are'1
going to take the place of the
gold piece as a Christmas gift
to a great extent this year, of- 1
ficials of the Federal Reserve
bank announced here today.
There will be more gold in the
country than there ever was
before on account of the fact
that it cannot be exported,
these officials state, but the
banks are making every effort
to substitute treasury notes
for gold, as the general circu
lation of the latter is declared
to be “uneconomic and unsat
isfactory in many ways.”
Banks throughout the north
west are declared to have en
tered with pronounced zeal in
to the campaign for a greater
reserve. Financial institutions
all over the country are meet
ing with a hearty response,in
the call for a more general cir
culation of pajffer currency.
This campaign, according to
the reserve bank officials here,
is bound to have its effect on
tire? practice of giving gold
coins during the holidays.'
