"The marshals and police judge

and

the United States Commissioner

at

Gallup testified in rebuttal that

the

to

being

a

law _{abiding citizen} was bad, and pre-dicated this testimony on the

fact

that people in general in

the

as

a

Last

Friday

evening was the first meeting

of

the

executive

officers

of

the

local Red Cross.

It

was

rather

a

_surprise.

We

naturally expected a few

to

meet; maybe not enough to

trans-act any business. Then

after

a

faithful avowal

of

each to meet

again and

bring

another with them. But it was quite different.

Practically

all

were present.

We

are

convinced

that

they

mean to

be

of

public service.

But

after

they have done all they

can

do,

success

largely

depends upon those

who

are

chosen

to

put over

the

call with

the people.

A

_{complete county}

wide

_{organiaztion was}

perfect-ed.

Those

present

were given certain

parts to

play

in

it. The

chairman accepted his duties; all

of us

are

dead

bent upon

car-rying it

to

a

success.

Material has gone

forth

to

about every

section

in

fhe

county.

In

each place a leader has been

chosen.

This

_far

we

have gone and this far

'we must go.

But

success

is

invested somewhere

else.

It

depends upon the leaders who

stand next

to

the people.

It

really

isn't any time

to

argue with

any

one

about

the

merits

of

the

Red Cross.

From start to finish it has

shown

it-self efficient.
