Davison,“ ghairman of the war council of the Red Cross,} today issued to the 3,854,chapters and the 22,000,000 members of the Amer- ican Red ‘Cross, the following state- ment outlining the future policy of the American Red Cross: The ‘whole American people will be invited ‘ih the week preceding Christmas to enroll as members of the Red Cross. It: is confidentially be- lieved that there need be no further catnyaigns for Red Cross funds, but, instead, an annual Roll Call will con- stitute the foundation of the Red Cross. “I'he ‘people ‘should, therefore, | know as definitely’ as possible the! plans of this, their national humani- | tarian society. ¢:Since the armistice was signed, I! have had an opportunity.to confer in Paris with the heads of all American! d Cross commissions in Europe, and! ! ‘later in Washington with the presi- dent of the United States, the. war council of the Red Cross, the man- agers of the fourteen Red Crossj divisions in the United States, and with the heads of our depa:tments' at national headquarters. I am, therefore, able to speak now. with knowledge and assurance in saying that the beneficent work of the Amer- ican Red Cross is to go forward on a pret scale—not alone, as heretofore, ‘or purposes of relief of war, but as an agency of peace and permanent human service. Since America’s. entry. war, the purpose of our Red Cross has been primarily to aid our army and. navy in the care of.our own men under arms; and, secondly, to extend relief to the soldiers, sailors and ci- vilians-of those nations which were fighting our battles along with. their own. ith the fuhds which ~ have been so generously contributed by the American, heanle, this war work of the Red Cross will continue and. be completed with all possible sympathy and energy. Wherever our soldiers .and sailors may be, the Red Cross will stay with. them until they are. demobilized. Noth: ing which we may do will ibe left un-. done, either for the men in the war zone, for those returning, for those in the. camps and hospitals, or for their’ families at home to whom will inte the GETS UNIQUE RED CROSS SERVICE PIN > Mrs. B.A. Hughes. ‘ds in receipt of the regulation Red Cross service pin, an_honor accorded. all: those accepted It isa unique and artistic emblem, to, be worn ypon the uniform: ‘Mrs. Hughes was accepted and a Later came a wire. that. the.

Red Cross workers are now engaged the land. The problems of reconstruction, in- volving feeding and. caring for the distressed civilian population of Eu- rope, are of such magnitude that, nec- lessarily, they must be met very large- ly by the governments of our Allies, with. whom our own government will co-opeiate. The g-eat tasks of fighting tuber- enle’ — oremoting. child welfare and jearing for refugees, with which the 44... cai Red Cross has concerned it- |seif so effectively in France, Italy una Beigium, will at an early date be assumed by the governments, the Red Cross organizations, and the relief so- cieties of those countries which, now that they are released from the ter- ine burden of waging war, naturally desire to take care, as far as they | can, of their own people. The war program of the American ‘Red Cross will thus steadily and rap- lidly merge itself into a peace pro- gram. ‘the wake of the war will, however, reveal the prevalence of dis- ease and give rise to epidemics and emergencies which in all parts of the world will call for unlimited volun- tary effort; the cutting of red taj e and the manifestation of those quali- ties of human sympathy which gov- ernment action cannot display. the American Red Cross. But even our Red’ Cross must not act and can- not act most effectively alone; we must’ labor in co-operation with the National Red Cross and relief asso- ciations of other..nations, to the end that not alone the heart of America but ‘the heart ‘of all mankind may be mobilized on behalf of suffering hu- mhanity. While, therefore, the plans of the American Red Cross. in this direction cannot be formulated specifically, in ‘advance ‘of the general relief program of the: Allied: governments, the Amer- ican Red Cross is nevertheless plan- ning to develop its permanent organ- ization’ in this country upon a scale never before contemplatéd in time of peace, ON “A New.
