On account of compensation from the direc- tor general of the railroads there was due Dec. 31, 1919, $7,992,741, a little more than half of the amount due at the close of the year before. The funded debt of the corporation has been reduc- ed from over §$282,000,000 to $274.600.000;! but there has been a $7,000,000 increase in the deferred liabilities. Total operating revenues have jumped $4,000,000 in the vear, there being $5.- 000,000 increase in passenger receipts but a drop of more than $1,000,000 in freight Teceipts. The increase in operatiny ex- penses has at last slowed down being the smallest rate of increase since 1916. Over 100,000,000 passengers were carried the largest number in several years. There was a reduction of 4,000,000 in the number of tons of revenue freight car- ried. > 2 RED CROSS PEACE AIM The American Red Cross announced ‘on Wednesday that it has definitely decided upon health service as its principal peace- time activity. In this new field, which is! also to be the chief activity of the League of Red Cross Societies, the or- ganization pledges itself to: Stimulation of interest in public health work; sup- port and if need be, supplement the work of government agencies; disseminate use- ful knowledge concerning heaith through demonstratiens, education and otherwise. The announcement of this new activity says in part: “The Red Cross believes that it can best carry out this healtn service programme through the medium of the Health Center, a decision arrived at largely upon recommendations of lead- ing health experts in the United State: “It will take a general practical inter- est in the problem of disease prevention and health preservation as a whole. It will not be exclusivel interested an combating Zny one diseat Tt will not center its attention on any one group of people but will aim to be of practical ana | effective service to all the people and to| all the health interests of any commmuni- ty. It will act only in response to a| request from a community. The estab-| lishment of a Red Cross Health Center will be a matter for local determination ¥ the Red Cross chapter or branch. “The primary function of these health centers will be to teach well people how to provide information. which will enable people to protect themselves and others from disease and learn when the should avail themselves of medical advice and treatment.” *.
