The RED CROSS HAS INCREASED ITS SCOPE OF WORK Annual Report Shows Ma-| terial Increase 'in Facili- ties for Giving Aid | The scope of the American Red Cross has been materially enlarged | during the past year, according to the annual report of that great or- ganization, recently made public from national headquarters at Washington, D. C.,, an abstract of which has just beeg received by the local Chapter. The Thirtenth An- nual Roll Call of the organization will open here next Monday and ex- tend until Thanksgiving. The local Chapter’s canvass for memberships will be made under the direction of Capt. John New- |marker. He will appoint commit= tees for Juneau and other com- munities included in the Chapter's jurisdiction. Two Notable Increases A material increase in the public health and life saving activities of the Red Cross is recorded in the annual report. The enrolment of nurses by the Red Cross now num- bers 49,153. In the past year 1,551 nurses also were engaged in giving instruction courses in home hy- giene and care of the sick. Nutri- home hygiene jnstructors gave 42,- 234 certificates to adults and mi-| nors, making a total of 543,337 who have graduated since 1914. The life saving and first aid courses, which were inaugurated in 1910, reached a greater number of persons than in any former year,! and life savers entitled to wear the insigna of the Red Cross, showing that they were trained in resuscita- tion and other means of life sav- now number 220,404. First aid Advanced courses have graduated 350,491, | One of the purposes of these that they may in turn give classes. | Nursing Service Made Permanent The vital need in at least 45 per icy. health nursing was for demonstra- tion purposes, to interest munici- palities or communities in providing this care for citizens. | During the past year, however, the Red Cross public health nursing service has been organized to re- main permanently in this field, with particular attention to extending nursing care in rural communities. Vice President James L. Fieser stated that surveys show approxi- mately 45 per cent of all counties have no hospital for general com- munity use that the supply of doc- tors is steadily decreasing in rural areas, and that there are probably at'least 1,000 counties without any public health nursing. Red Cross chapters now have 766 public health nurses in active ser- national organization and its chap- ters expended $747,477 for this work. in partnership with the public au- thirities in the nursing service, and the organization hopes to increase materially the itinerant, or part- time, nursing service in the 500 or more counties where resources of the chapter or the authorities do not permit engaging a nurse on a yearly basis. This itinerant service proposes employment of a nurse for three or six months. Tells of Diphtheria “War” “Scéhool nursing on a country- wide basis still remains the primary activity in a great majority of the Middle Western and Far Western States, while visiting nursing holds first place in the town services in the Eastern States,” Mr. Fieser said. “Amopg the lesser activities, two stand out in particular: the slogan to free our children from diphtheria has been spread all over the nation by State health departments, and many Red Cross nurses have had much to do with the actual work of getting the children immuned. “Another activity is the Summer round-up. Everywhere our nurses have joined with the authorities in making physically fit as many as possible of the younger children be- fore their entry into school. A small beginning has been-made in hourly nursing and maternity service by a courses is to teach instructors so | jcent of the counties of the United | States for public health work has; caused a change in Red Cross pol- | Formerly Red Cross public) vice, and during the past year the| In 413 counties the Red Cross is every encouragement to growth of this work.” All of the work, Mr. Fleser said, is supported by the annual roll-call for members in the Red Cross, which is held from.Armistice Day to Thanksgiving Day.

California 15; Southern California ‘Wwillamette 25; Pacific 0. Oregon 27; University of Califor- nia at Los Angeles 0. Washington State 9; Oregon State women are demanding the 7 sheets because of the greater prac- ticability and because of the popu- larity of the box bed spring, which makes the more lengthy sheets highly desirable. Sheets Are Longer Cotton Survey Shows BOSTON, Nov. 4—Sheets are longer, or at any rate, the longer |types are making big gains over |the 90-inch size that was almost universal up to five years ago. Cotton manufacturers conclude that either greater attention is being paid to comfort—or else that Americans are becoming a taller race. A great cotton mill at Selam, ,Mass,, reports that the longer sizes ‘comp‘rue about two-thirds of its entire output as compared with about one-third in 1921. The manufacturers believe that long 000 eccescccccccce Treasury’s Net Cash Balance $785,961; Gains Over Last Year With a nev cash balance of $785,961.18 on hand as of October 31, last, the Ter- ritorial Treasury showed a gain of $94,085.48 over the same date in 1928, it was an- nounced today by Gov.
