RED CROSS MEETING 
CAMPAIGN To RAISE MANCHESTER’S 
SHARE OF MILLION DoLLAR FuND 
LAUNCHED ON Monpay, 
Manchester started its campaign to 
raise its share of the $100,000,000 war 
relief fund of the American Red 
Cross with a public meeting in Town 
hall on Monday evening. Rev. W. 
H. Rider of Essex and Andrew L,. 
Bixler and William Nelson of Bey- 
erly were the speakers who urged 
support of the campaign in brief ad- 
dresses. William Hooper of Man- 
chester, chairman of the local com- 
mittee on finance for the Red ‘Cross, 
presided at the meeting and explained 
the purpose of the gathering. 
“Money. contributed to the Ameri- 
can Red Cross at this time,” said Rev. 
Mr. Rider, “is. a better investment 
than the money you spent for Liberty 
bonds. It will pay you greater re- 
turns than any banker will pay you 
for your invested funds; it will give 
you the satisfaction of having helped 
your fellow men. The Red Cross is 
teaching the lesson of humanitarian- 
ism to the world. It is helping the 
reputation of America among nations 
more than any other means. It is 
creating a world-wide understanding 
that America, with all her prosperity 
and her reputed selfishness, really has 
the good of humanity at heart. The 
Red Cross has shown that the dis- 
position of America is catholic, hu- 
mane and broad and that she seeks 
the good will of all nations. 
“That three billions of dollars sub- 
scribed to the recent loan was money 
spent for the furtherance of peace. 
and good will among men, It was 
not spent with the idea of acquisition 
of new territory. The Red Cross ap- 
peals to what is most American in us. 
No organization should make the ap- 
peal to us that the Red Cross does. 
We have loaned billions for war; now 
let us show a corresponding desire to 
render aid to those who suffer from 
the effects of war. Let the men who 
are wounded, and who must die, 
know that their sacrifice was appre- 
ciated. Contributions to the Red 
Cross, more than the Liberty loan 
will make our boys at the front know 
that we at home are doing our part.” 
Andrew L. Bixler of the campaign 
committee of the Essex County chap- 
ter of the Red Cross further urged 
the importance of giving to the fund. 
“We have been preparing to spend 
money for equipment of our armies,” 
he said; “our boys have been register- 
ing and have been volunteering. Now 
it is up to the Red Cross to keep up
