No less { than 18 American nations are repre ! sented. 1 have also the pleasure of | welcoming guests from overseas, the | tional organizations, and of more than a dozen of the Red Cross Societies of Europe and of Asia, who have accept. { ed the invitation of the American | Red Cross and of the League of Red C Societies to be our guests at conference. { Benefits from Movement. | “We meet together today to take | counsel, to exchange ideas and ex- perience, to make plans for future collaboration in the furtherance of a common purpose. It is the realiza- tion in the Western Hemisphere of that ideal of service to humanity of which the Red Cross is the svmbol. Since the organization of the league of Societies in 1919, the movement has entered on a new and more act program in time of peace. The world ! has already greatly benefited from this action, and it has come to play a new and greater role in our lives, “More than 60 years ago in Geneva, a small group set themselves the task of awakening the world's conscience to a realization of the necessity of agreeing upon measures to alleviate the suffering of sick and wounded in time of war. The initiative has pro- duced results, which even the most optimistic of the pioneers of 1863 could jhardly have anticipated. The Red Cross movement has become uni- versal. All civilized nations have sub- scribed to the solemn obligations of the Geneva Conventions, neutralizing and protecting the wounded in time of war. In 58 nations duly authorized voluntarily national socleties exist. “These socleties have undertaken through their federation, the League of Societies, a program no longer limited to war time. Peace like war, has its emergencies, its heavy toll of unnecessary victims. These emerg- encies - cannot be met by govern- mental action ‘alone. They demand effective intervention of the volunteer strength of each country. The Red Cross has undertaken the mobilization of this volunteer force and its utili- zation in accord with the needs of each country for the prevention of unnecessary suffering. Changes Among Nations: “In recent yvears there has been much discussion of international re- lations. And, indeed, the need for such discussion is apparent. The ap- plication of scientific . discovery to communications, to transportation, to industry, has bound the countries of the world together to a degree our forefathers could never have antici- pated. The interchange of the prod- ucts of agriculture and of industry the universal dissention and inter- action of ideas. the progress of sclen- tific research, has profoundly revolu- tionized, not only the routine of life in every country, but also the char- acter of international intercourse. “Soclal organization séldom keeps pace with human activity in science, industry and commerce. | naturally arise Text of President’s Speech Before Red Cross Session complexity of modern governmental problems is appalling to those who share the responsibility. In the face of these increasing problems of inter- national intercourse, co-operation of the peoples of the world must rest on a broad and fundamental basis. Mutual understanding, sympathy and tolerance must grow up among the peopies themselves and cannot be imposed upon thewm. “In the past the history of inter national relations has tended to be merely a summary of the differences between nations. Diplomatic inter- course has had as its chief purpose the settling of such differences. In the day-to-day routine of life problems in- which national interests and opinions may seem to differ. Such differences should not lead us, however, to lose sigit of the fundamenta! unity of the human problem. Problem of Adagtation. “The ills of humanity are common to all nations and affict us all alike. The chief factors conditioning human life and happiness are still natural rather than social in their character. r chief problem, and the universal W | 1llemma of the rase, is that of per- | fecting our adaptation to our natural environment; of controlling the blind forces of nature to make them serve as Instruments of human happiness; of circumventing the operation of natural causes destructive of our health. our vltality, or our lives. As mankind learns to devote its efforts to these tasks. rather than to futile and internecine strife, international relationships will become increasingly co-operative and less controversial. ““The development of the Red Cross movement and the nature of its activl- ties is a demonstration, of the possi- bility and of the utllity of free inter- course and of voluntary collaboration. In bringing about such discussions as are provided for in your program of work, in making plans for joint action and for co-operation in a common cause, you are taking a definite part in the building of a new international order. You are bringing home to your respective peoples the possibility of effective action in the pfevention of suffering. You are holding before them new ideals which cannot .but have & wider and wider reaction. You are developing and strengthening the elvic conscience of all peoples. At the same time you are giving a practieal expression to their often unformulated desire to add their volunteer effort to the constructive forces at work - for the betterment of the community. Achievements Are Praised. “The quick response to the appeals for the victims of disasters in the past decade is an llustration of this de- velopment. The increasing willing- ness of all classes in many countries to aid in meeting local problems is equally significant. The Red Cross is in the truest sense a popular organ- ization. . It springs from the. people, derives its whole force from ‘their support and is their agenc: nationally and lhternationall effective meeting of emergency situa- tions affecting the happiness, health and lives of populations. “In the seven years that have elapsed since the National Societies organized the league notable results have been achieved in the relief of disaster victims, in the combating of epidemics, in the development of nurs- ing, in the improvement of heaith conditions in many countries, and, finally, in the enroliment of nine mil- lion children in forty countries fn the Junior Red Cross to promote health, clvic improvement, peace and friend- liness.
