爱德华·博克《爱德华·博克自传》· The Americanization of Edward Bok · 领导
But the efficient committee had done its work; upon his return Bok found the organization complete. On the first day of the campaign, the false rumor that an armistice had been signed made the raising of the large amount seem almost hopeless; furthermore, owing to the influenza raging throughout the commonwealth, no public meetings had been permitted or held. Still, despite all these obstacles, not only was the twenty millions subscribed but oversubscribed to the extent of nearly a million dollars; and in face of the fact that every penny of this large total had to be collected after the signing of the armistice, twenty millions of dollars was paid in and turned over to the war agencies.

白话
博克回来发现组织已完备。募捐首日，停战协议已签的假消息让筹款几乎无望；加上流感肆虐，全州禁止公众集会。尽管障碍重重，两千万美元不仅认购足额，还超了近一百万；而且所有款项都在停战后才收取，最终两千万实收并转交战时机构。这说明高效团队和扎实组织能抵御意外冲击；关键是把基础工作做在前面，遇到谣言和疫情时及时调整方式，不依赖大型集会也能完成目标。
