Report from Butte cites a Montana appeal to support American ambulance service in France. C W Goodale received telegraphs and letters about fundraising by a national organization, with plans to present to Rotary and other groups. The effort backs bandage-making by Butte women and notes 100 plus ambulances and 400 men now, aiming for 600 by June 1. Moving pictures in America financed by a New York committee will be shown in Butte to raise funds. The service costs about 200000 annually, and the work is praised by the New York Sun as many wounded soldiers prefer American care.
