This action fixes the date of the sec end Red Cross campaign eleven months after the first, which was started on June 18, 1917. The War Council had been appointed by President Wilson only five weeks prior to the beginning of this campaign, so that its first great task was to provide means for carry lug on relief woilki during the war on a scale commensurate with the mill. tary operations. More than $100,000,000 was contrib uted in response to the first call for financial aid and contributions plus interest brought the total receipts from the first drive up to $105,099,527. Of this amount, $17,006,121 was re funded to Red Cross Chapters for 10 cal relief work. Of the balance, $77, 721,918 has been appropriated, leaving a balance of $10,371,217 available foi appropriation. France has received appropriations amounting to more .that thirty millions. During the week pro ceding Christmas the Red Cross con ducted a membership drive which re suited in the enrollment of approxi mately 22,000,000 new members. Thit was followed last month by a cam -paign conducted by the Junior mem bership of .the Red Cross which result ed in the enrollment in the collatera organization of Practically all of the school children in America.
