SECOND RED CROSS WAR FUND.
Campaign for Bamberg County on;
From May 20th to 27th.
Having been appointed by' the
Southern division office (Atlanta,
Ga.) of the American Red Cross, to
act as chapter war fund chairman
for Bamberg county in the campaign j
for the second Red Cross war fund,
I desire to bring to the attention of
our people the campaign that is to be
made, with the view that Bamberg
county may perform her part in the;
work that is to be undertaken.
The period set apart for the campaign
is May 20tb to 27th, and for
the purpose of making clear the full j
purpose of the campaign I quote the ]
language of President Woodrow Wilson
in his proclamation issued a few
days ago, which is as follows:
"Inasmuch as the war fund of
1917 so generously contributed to
the Red Cross for the administration j
of relief at home and abroad has been j
practically exhausted by appropria
tions for the welfare of our military'
and naval forces and those dependent
on them, and for the yet more urgent
necessities of our allies, both
military and civilian, who have long
borne the brunt of the war; and in
asmuch as the year of our participation
in the war has brought an un- I
precedented demand upon the patriot- j
ism and liberality of our people and!
has made evident the necessity of j
concentrating the work of relief in
one main organization which can respond
effectively and universally to
the needs of humanity under stress
of war; and inasmuch as during this j
war the closer and closer cooperation i
+>10 Po/1 Crnce n'ith nnr nwri ftr- '
VI tuv VI ? 1VU V v? A V > M VHA I
my and navy, with the governments'
of our allies and with foreign relief!
organizations has resulted in the discovery
of new opportunities for helpfulness
under conditions which translate
opportunity into duty; and inasmuch
as the Red Cross war council
and the Red Cross commissioners in
Europe have faithfully and economi- <
cally administered the people's trust;
now, therefore, by virtue of my authority
as president of the United
States and president of the Red Cross
I, Woodrow Wilson, do hereby proclaim
the week beginning May 20,
1918, "Red Cross Week," during
which the people of the United States ;
will be called upon again to give
generously to the continuation of the
important work of relieving distress,
restoring tne waste 01 war ana assisting
in maintaining the morals of
our own troops and the troops and
people of our allies by this manifestation
of effort and sacrifice on the
part of those who, though not priviileged
to bear arms, are of one spirit,
purpose and determination with j
our warriors; in witness whereof I :
have hereunto set my hand and caus-!
ed the seal of the United States to j
be affixed. Done in the District of j 3
Columbia on the seventh day of May,
anno domini one thousand nine hundred
and eighteen, and of the inde
pendence of the United States of
America one hundred and forty-second."
The amount of money the American
Red Cross is undertaking to
raise at this time is one hundred
million dollars. "While the campaign
will e be conducted under
the management of the Red
Cross organization of the county, the
appeal is made to the entire citizenry
and every person of the county, white
or black, rich or poor, will be given
an opportunity to subscribe to the
fund in such amount as the conditions
of life will permit and the dictates
of an honest conscience demand, be
the amount large or small.
The following named members of
the Red Cross have been requested
to conduct the campaign in the respective
localities named, and to serve
in the capacity named:

I desire to call attention to the
fact that at Bamberg ^there Is a colored
organization of the Red Cross,
and for this reason I have appointed
a committee from the colored organization
to make a canvas among the
colored people of the Bamberg communitiy.
In the other communities
the matter will be handled with
the colored people by the committees
named above, with the aid of such
colored leaders as the committees
may call to their aid.
Every community which has not a
Red Cross organization is expected
to contribute through the nearest
chapter or branch within the county,
or the one it has heretofore been allied
with or assisting.
In this call I believe the people of
Bamberg county will not only do
what they conceive to be their patriotic
duty, but will welcome the
opportunity to participate in this
most worthy cause, and will rally to
the call of our country, doing that

8.18 Per Cent. Failed to Appear.
Of the 3,082,949 persons called
under the selective-service act, 252,294,
or 8.18 per cent, failed to appear
for examination, according to a statement
issued by the Provost Marshal
General. This number, however, included
men who had previously enlisted
or been commissioned and had
failed to notify their boards, some
who had died, and many who were
transferred to other boards but by
mistake had been carried on the
books of their local boards?estimated
a^ 100,000.
Many of the remaining 150,000
were aliens, a number of whom left
the country to enlist in their own
armies.
The statement estimates the
number of real "slackers" at not more
than 50,000, or an average of less
than 10 for each local board.
