Massachusetts Volunteer Aid Seeks Funds for Soldiers Families
The executive committee of the Massachusetts Volunteer Aid Association appealed for funds to aid families of soldiers called to service on the Mexican border. Over $36,000 already subscribed, with George C. Lee as treasurer. Mayor Curley proposed a $1 poll tax donation plan, aiming near a $1,000,000 fund, and Governor McCall urged organized, noncharitable relief via the central committee.
