Red Cross Asks $200,000,000
To Cover Wartime Needs
, WASHINGTON, D. C.—Confronted
j wit h responsibilities of unprecedented
proportions, as the war enters its
most crucial stage, and with a stagger
ing task ahead in the post-war period,
the American Red Cross opens Its
1944 War Fund appeal March 1, con
fident that the American people will
respond to the limit of their ability.
President Roosevelt, president of the
American Red Cross, Norman H. Davis,
j chairman and active head of the vast
j organization, and Leon Fraser, na
tional War Fund chairman, join in
j urging the people of this country to
\ help Red Cross reach its national
objective of $200,000,000 because of
, the vital part it must play within the
next twelve months.
Chairman Davis, in opening the
campaign, will stress the fact that
1 with the decisive stage of the war at
hand, the Red Cross must assume a
greater burden than ever before, and
at the same time must provide aid to
servicemen being returned in ever
• increasing numbers.
Red Cross operations over the entire
world during 1943 have dwarfed its
activities during the first two years
of war.
An even greater burden will be
placed on Red Cross services in 1944.
Thousands of American men and
women are now in Red Cross service
with U. S. troops at home bases and
1 overseas. Field directors, hospital,
club and recreation workers are with
American armed forces in virtually
every command, Mr. Davis asserted.
Both in Europe and in the Far East,
Red Cross workers have either gone
■ with invasion forces into new combat
areas, or have followed within a very
limited time.
On the home front, the Red Cross
> has broadened its service tremend
-1 ously. Field directors are serving in

every sizable military establishment
and camp throughout the country, and
recreation and social service worker?,
are located in Army and Naval
hospitals.
One of the most Important and
necessary war-time Red Cross func
tions has been the collection of human
blood for plasma. Thirty-five blood
donor stations are now operating.
The dramatic story of the Red Cross
Blood Donor Service, through which
thousands of soldiers and sailors have
been saved from death, began In Feb
ruary, 1941, when the Surgeons Gen
eral of the Army and Navy asked the
Red Cross to procure 15,000 pints of
blood. Last year more than 3,700,000
pints of blood were collected for the
Army and Navy. This year the goal is
more than 5,000,000 pints.
With major battles of the war yet
to come, the Army has asked the Red
Cross to supply many millions of sur
gical dressings. American men wounded
in battle will depend acutely on the
vast Red Cross surgical dressing pro
duction program.
Numerous other Red Cross home
operations, such as Prisoners of War 1
packaging centers, where more than
a million parcels for war prisoners
are prepared each month for shipment
overseas, are supported by citizen
participation in the Red Cross War
Fund.
So extensive is Red Cross service
during this war that every American
civilian can contribute something to
at least one of its functions. To con
tinue this gigantic work, all Americana
must assume their share of tho re
sponsibility of carrying on this far- ,
reaching service.
The $200,000,000 quota will enable I
Red Cross to alleviate suffering and 1
pain at home and abroad, and to carry
i on its vast military welfare service.
