Nome Nurses To Make Drive
For European War Victims
The Nome nurses are organiz
ing a war relief drive in Nome
and the Seward Peninsula. Cans:
with the Red Cross insignia on
them will be put at every con-}
venient location. The Nome quota !
is $400 and Miss Sheppand is
chairman of the campaign.
In view of the terrible condit
ions described it is hoped that
Nome will exceed its quota, and
speedily.
The following telegram was re
ceived by the chairman of the
Nome Chapter of the Red Cross
from Norman H. Davis, Chair
man of the National Chapter:
“With several million men lock
ed in mortal combat on French
and Belgian soil, the relief needs i
of Belgian and French people
are reaching staggering propor
tions. Already five million piti
ful refugees are clogging every
road into central and southern
France, trying to escape bombing
and strafing from airplanes. Our
representatives in France report
.housands dying by roadsides, of*
wounds, fright and hunger. Am
erican Red Cross must rush re- j
lief of every kind, if these inno- i
cent people are to be saved. We,
are expediting millions of dollars;
in money and supplies, but we
need more and bigger contribu-1
tions to carry on. Cannot urge
upon you too strongly need for
prompt action if we are to be
friend these sorely tried victims
of brutal warfare. We count upon
you to reach and oversubscribe
your goal within shortest pos
sible time. Every day’s delay
means hundreds may die because
we have not brought them aid in
this, their saddest hour.”
