Roosevelt Memorial Fund Raises Iowa Target For National Shrine
The Roosevelt Memorial Association launches a statewide drive in Iowa to raise two hundred thousand dollars for a permanent Theodore Roosevelt memorial in Washington D C and to fund the Roosevelt home at Bagamore Hill Oyster Bay. Polk County fulfilled its ten thousand seven hundred dollar quota last week and counties adjust dates due to organizational delays. Local committees will announce new campaign dates. Charles H McNider of Mason City chairs the state committee, Henry C Wallace of Des Moines is state treasurer. Contributions Plural range from one thousand to two thousand in non urban counties. Admirers of the late president urged to contribute, avoiding large gifts and keeping the effort voluntary. Street repairs continue as Harrington and crew gravel rough spots in streets. Chris Schweitzer becomes owner of the John Johnson property in West Elgin after purchasing through Elgin Land Co.
