Dr, Livingston Farrand Permanent Leader of Peace Orgahization, ‘Washington.—(Special.)\—Henry. P. Davison as chairman issues the follow- ing statement/on behalf of the War Council of the American Red Cross: , “To the American People: {The War Council of the Amertean Red Cross appointed by President Wil- son on May 10, 1917, to carry on the work of the American Red Cross dur- ing the war, at thejr request and by vote of the Central Committee, ceased at midnight, February 28, y “Immediately the armistice was .signed the War Council ‘instituted studies to determine ‘vhen the strict- ly war work of the organization would have beep sufficiently. matured to et-| able the direction of affairs to be re- sumed by the permanent staff. Henry P. Davison, being: in Paris when the armistice was signed, summoned a conference there of the heads of all the Red Cross Commissions in Europe to canvass the situation. After con- sidering all the factors it was con- cluded to make the transition on March 1. The very fortunate chol¢e of Dr, Livingston Farrand ms the new chairman of the Céntral Committee, and thereby the permanent chief ex- ecutiveof the Red Cross, makes possi- ble the eénsummation of this plan un- der the most favorable conditions, Accounts Audited by War Department. “Detailed reports to Congress and a complete audit of its accounts by the War Department will constitute the final record of Red Cross activity dur- ing the war. Although it has been the rule to make public al) expendi- tures when authorized and to give de- tailed information relative to all work -undertaken, the War Council in turn: | ing over its responsfbilities to Dr. rand and his associates desire to give a brief resume of Red Cross war time activities to the American people, to whom the Red Grass belong, and whose generous contbutions have made pos- sible all that has béen’ accomplished. “During the past nearly twenty-one months the Amertcan peoplé have given Injcash and supplies to the American Red Cross more than $400,- 000,000. No value can be placéd upon the contributions of service which havé been given without’ stint ‘and of- tentlines at. great sacrifice .by., miuions. of our people, “The: effort. of the American. Red’ Cross "In this: War ‘has constifuted by far the. largest” voluntary ‘gifts. of money, of hand and heart, ever con- tributed purely for the reltef of hu- man suffering: Through the Red Cross the heart and spirit of the whole American people have been mobilized to'take care of oui’ own, to relieve the misery incident to the war, and also to reveal to the world the supreme ideals of our national life. “Everyone who has had@ any part fn this war effort of the Red Cross is en- titled to congratulate himself, No thanks from anyone could be equal ip yalue to the self satisfaction every- one should feel for. the part: taken, Fully 8,000,000 American women have exerted themselves in Red Cross serv- ice, Hae ;Over 17,000,000 Adult Members. “When we entered the war the American Red-Cross had about 500,000 members,’ Today, as the result of the recent Christmas mtmbership Roll Call, there are upwards of 17,000,000 full paid members.outside of the mem- bers of the Junior Red Cross, number- ing perhaps 9,000,600 school children additional, “The chief effort of the Red Cross during the war has been to care for our meg in service and to aid, our army and navy/ wherever the Red Cross may be called off to assist. As to this phase of the vod Surgeon Gen- » eral Ireland of the U. 8. Army recent: ly said: ‘The Red Cross has been iin entegprise as vast as the war itself. From the beginning it has done those things which the Army Medical Corps wanted done, but could not do itself.’ “The Red Cross’ endeavor in France has naturally been upon an exception- ally large scale where service has been: rendered to the American Army and to the French Army and the French people ‘as well, the latter par- ticularly during the trying period when the Allied World was waiting for the American Army to arise in force and power, Hospital emérgency service for our army in France has greatly diminished, but the Red Cross 1g. still being called- upon for service upon a large scale In the great base} hospitals, where thousands of Amert- cab sick and wounded are still receiv: fog attention. At these hospitals the Red Cross supplies huts and facilities for the amusement and recreation of the men as they become convalescent: Oar Army of Occupation in @trmany was followed with Medical units pre- pared to render the same emergency aid and sapply. servite which was the] primary busipess of the Red Cross ring hostilities.

It_will continue to be so. But the Movement represented by this work has likewise assumed gn Intimate place in the dally life of our people at home. The army of workers which has beer recruited and trained during the war must not be demobilized. / All our ex- perience in.the war shows clearly that there is an‘unlimited field for service of the kind’ whith can be performed]- with peculiar effectiveness by the Red Cross, What its future tasks may be it Is yet impossible to forecast.
