$319,713 RAISED FOR WAR REFUGEES BY GERMAN ALLIANCE Secretary Sends Report of Gifts to Local Branch and Details Destination of the Sums. -FV V". ' The executive committee of the local branch of the German' Alliance announced that the $500 forwarded for relief -work in Germany had been credited by the national organization and that on Feb. 1 a sum of $319,713.17 had been contributed. For work among the wounded soldiers the sum of $87,642.12 was voted, and for widows and orphans $116,000. For Austrian wounded there was set aside $39,239.43, and for widows and orphans in"' that country $66,693.42. These figures were furnished by John TJark, treasurer, who home is In Baltimore.. ' "" ' ' "' It was explained that large .sums of money had been collected by private societies and donated by individuals, of which no public mention has been made. For Instance, Richmond gave more than $500, but the name of the city will not appear In the public record. Joseph Keller of Indianapolis, state president of the Alliance, said today that Richmond will receive credit only through the direct relief committee. All German societies are asked to work through the German American Alliance which is carrying on a nationwide propaganda to unite the Germans in the United States. It is believed by the leaders of the organization that the ideals of the fatherland can best be preserved through an organization as large as the Alliance Is.
