PRESIDENT VOICES HIGH PRAISE FOR RED GROSS GROUP 1 Hoover Lauds Work of Clara Barton in Radio Speech to New York Gathering Washington, Sept. 9—()—Presi- dent Hoover turned aside from gov- ernment business Wednesday to pay tribute to the Red Cross as part of the the celebration of the foundation of its first chapter at Dansville, New York, 50 years ago, by Clara Barton. Speaking over a nation-wide radio hook-up from the cabinet room of the white house executive offices, Hoover said the organization “proves the ability of a democracy to create from the people themselves the agen- cies for their service.” The Dansville chapter, known as the Clara Barton chapter number one, was organized by Miss Barton her- seit in 1881, Of that the president said: “The fifty years which have passed since that pioneer. beginning have written a chapter in the world-wide relief of human suffering which is a fitting memorial to Miss Barton and @ proud tradition to her countrymen.” Text In Part The text of the president's remarks follows in part: “The law provides that the chief executive of the nation shall also be ‘the president of the American Nation- al Red Cross. This fact adds to the -sense of personal pleasure in the privilege which I have today of greet- ing by the radio those who have as- sembled at Dansville, New York, to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of Clara Barton chap- ter, number one, the first Red Cross chapter in America. This chapter has the distinction of being organized by Clara Barton herself in 1881. It is a great distinction which your chapter enjoys, both for the association with Miss Barton and as the beginners of one of the most beneficent institu- tions of our history. Nation joins in your celebration because of the suc- cess of the great, humanitarian agency which sprang from the mind of Clara Barton and the spirit of your community. 3,500 Chapters Now “The establishment of the pioneer| chapter in the village of Dansville was the forerunner of 3,500 chapters now in existence throughout the Unit- ed States, enrolling at times of na- tional need as many as twenty mil- lion members. In its lifetime the Red Cross has raised and expended nearly a billion of money in the belief of hu- man distress. The national organiza- tion has become our nation’s assur- ance of adequate, prompt and effi- cient handling of any catastrophe within our borders. It is the flower- ing of the spiritual impulse to serve the common need. It represents both the common impulse of sympathetic help and the mechanism for its prac- tical expression. It stands as a mon- ument to individual and local initia- tive. It proves the ability of a de- mocracy to create from the people themselves the agencies for service.” 30,000 GATHER TO HONOR NOTED WOMAN Dansville, N. ¥., Sept. 9.—(?)—Ap- proximstely 30,000 persons gathered here Wednesday to pay tribute to Clara Barton, mother of the Red!

While it is difficult to make com- parisons during the first few days of the school year, Gould said, it ap- pears that attendance in tte first six grades has fallen off by about 30 pupils and slight decreases have bee noted in both the junior and senior high schools. Attendance figures at the first day of school totaled 791, with 248 stu- dents registering at the high school, 207 at the junior high, 195 at the Central school, 108 at the Syndicate, and 33 at the Custer. On the other hand, an increase of 70 pupils has been reported at St. Joseph's arochial school, according ic Rev. Father Hildebrand, who said Wednesday that extensive improve- ments to the school plant and the the teaching staff had enabled the institution to take care of a larger enrollment. Registration this year totaled 539 students as against 467 for last year, he said. Economic conditions undoubtedly are the cause of the slight decrease in attendance in the high school, ac- cording to Gould, who said there are a few students who were unable to retun to school because of financia! conditions at home. . All teachers who signed up to re- turn to the public schools are back in harness, Gould said, and four new teachers have reported for duty.
