BRITISIi HEADQUARTERS IN YRANCE, June 22.—Appropriate to the observance of Red Cross week im the United States it may be an-/ nounced that quietly and with very little ceremony, 80 as to escape prac- tleally all but ofMfctal attention, Amer- jean doctors, nurses and eplisted men have taken over six of/che British. great general fleld hospyals, releasing | the English staffs for/duty near their front. ‘The Americans had been much impressed by the cordiality of their Weloome as well as by the thorough- ness and effectiveness of the British hospital system. So smoothly have the transfers been made that Americans have taken up their new work without even a moment's upset in the routine of the various hospls, tals. The Stars and Stripes fly with the British Union Jack from each hospital flagstaff, the two ensigns fluttering side by side. Originally planned for 1,040 beds each, the general hospitals have been practically all enlarged to 1,400 beds, and during a crisis can accommodate 2,000 patients.
