PRESIDENT URGES " RED CROSS RALLY Issues' Proclamation Calling for - Peaple-to Help Cause Washington, Nov. 17.—President Harding In a proclamation issue to. day calling attention to the annual membership roll call of the Ameriean Red Cross, which begins tomorrow, declared “there are peculiarly urgent reasons to appeal this year in behalf of an even greater generosity than has béen necessary in some other times." Notable among those reasons the President mentions the situation In the Near East where he asserts mil- Mons of people must look to more fa- Yored national communities such as the United States for the means of lite, He bespeaks the ald of the American people for the Red Cross as one of the chief relief agencles and / the co-operation of Americans in the support of all the organizations at work in that portion of the world. The Proclamation “To the American people: “The assurance, based on many years' experience, that there will be prompt and generous response, makes it always a satisfaction to di- rect public attention to the annual membership Roll Call of the Amer- Ican Red Cross. This year it will open on Armistice Day, November 11, and close on Thanksgiving Day, November 30. As president of the United States and also president of The American Red Cross, I hereby proclaim Novem- ber 12 as Red Cross Sunday, and in- vite all the people to unite with their spiritual leaders in such observance {1 of it as may promote a renewed con- secration to the gospel of service based upon divine injunction and sanctioned by all good conscience. “By the terms of the congressional charter which called it into being, the JAmerican Red Cross is charged with certain clearly defined duties and ob- Ngations. These it has continued, during the past year, to discharge faithfully and efficlency. These are i pecullarly urgent reasons to appeal, this year, in behalf of an even greater / generosity than has been necessary in some other times; because of the ex- < ‘traordinary demands upon such serv- ‘ fces of mercy and humanity. .One of the most fearful disasters of all his- tory has befallen the ill-fated Near ‘Eastern area, where the lives of mil- “llons of unfortunate people even now depend, and must continue for a long ‘time to depend, on the untiring lib- erality of more favored communities. . A very great sum is required to be faised if the emdrgency shall be met; ‘and while the task s one to which all i well-disposed peoples must contribute jour own country in virtue alike of its inspirations of humanity and its fortunate endowment in material pos- sessions, must be conspicuous for ‘ both the great share it shall give, and the high spirit animating the it ¢ w1t is therefore asked that co-opera- tion be established between the Red . Cross, the Near East Réllef, and all other agencies which are concerned ‘to assist in dealing with this crisis. “In ‘the domestic fleld, demands ‘nity, the American Red Cross NEW BRITAIN DAILY Washington's Youngest Hostess Miss Elizabeth Hanna, granddaughter of the late Senator and Msr. Mark A. Hanna of Ohio and niece of Mrs. Medill McCormick, wife of the Illinois senator, is Washington's youngest official hostess. continue to press heavily upon the Red Cross. The government is earn- estly seeking to insure to every dis- eased or disabled ex-service man the full measure of care and help which natlonal gratitude and simple justice dictate. The alm must be to restore every service man to the best possi- ble health and the largest opportu- nity for a normal and self-supporting life. TIn this effort the government, the army and navy, have gladly availed themselves of the assistance of the Red Cross which, due to its nation-wide volunteer organization, has been a constant and valued aid. “In the broad fleld concerned with the physica welfare of the people, the Red Cross, in sympathetic contact with other organizations, and the federal and state bureaus, has been particularly active in the establish- ment and support of public health activities for the prevention of dis- ease and the encouragement of sound sanitation. In its peculiar and his- toric fleld of disaster relief the Red Cross has met the emergencies brought about by the large number of floods and other calamities during the past year, and is still called upon to aid the suffering in foreign lands due to war and pestilence. For these reasons, regardless of the multitude of local problems in every commu- de- serves well at the hands of the Amer- ican people. “In the interests of our common humanity and of the service which we owe to .our fellow men, I invite my fellow citizens to renew their alle- giance to the American Red Cross during the period of the. membership roll call. (Signed) “WARREN G. HARDING.” PARTY TO DISSOLVE. Toklo, Nov. 17.—Acting on the ad- vice of their leader, Mr. Ki Inukai, the Kokuminto or Nationalist party, which has a small but influential group in the diet, has decided to dis- solve. Thus there disappeared a party that has existed 30 years, but Inukai, one of the most incnsive speakers in the Japanese parliament, although not in good health, does not intend to retire. His object in ask- ing the Kokuminto to dissolve was to endeavor to form a larger parly to include all the Nationalists and those members of the Seiyukai and Ken- seikai, the two large parties, who are dissatisfled with the present pol- ey of their leaders.
