In this year of the tenth anniversary of the Armistice, which ended the world war, the American Red Cross still finds a great army of disabled and sick veterans requiring assistance, and whose families also must be alded, aceording to a statement by James L. Fieser, vice chairman in charge of do mestic operations of the Red Cross at Washington, In the ten years since November 11, 1918, the Red Cross has expended approximately $65,800,000 in veteran rellef work, Mr, Fieser said. There is a daily average of 25,600 disabled and sick world war veterans enrolled in Veterans' Bureau and other government hospitals which care for these men and women, and about the same annual average of veterans suc cumbing to wounds and illness, for whose dependents the Red Cross is pledged to give required assistance, Mr, Fieser pointed out. In addition, the Red Cross, under its charter granted by Congress, has a definite duty towards service men of the regular establishment of Army, Navy anu Marine Corps, and follows them to all foreign ports or duty. The expenditure in this work for the year ending June 30, 1928, was $307,458, the annual report states. “Upon the Red Cross rests the sa cred obligation of carrying on relief work for the disabled service and ex service men and women and their de pendeats, taking up the work where the Government is not able to carry on,” Mr. Fleser sald. “The Red Cross has 349 trained workers, serving either full or part time in the field, in liaison work. csmne znd hasairala. wos wra aiways 1n personat contact with EE; sick and disabled in hospitals, with the men in the regular Army, Navy and Marine Corps, and who stand ever, ready to serve veterans back in civil life, 'who need the help of a friendly agency to aid in establishing theis rights and claims. . “To maintain this staff and to supe port the practical services they renme der, the Red Cross made expenditure of $1,169,795 for the year ending June 30, 1928. In addition 2,700 Red Cross Chapters, in that number of communf« ties, who have established special work for the disabled service and ex service people, expended during the past year $1,732,000.” 4 Ml e wnnl desme x ¢ Both the razor and the blades have been distinctly bettered.

LDt Aae number of death claims alone of vets erans which are handled through the War Service at national headquarters of the Red Cross, has increased from 12,010 in 1928-24 to 24,602 in 1927-28. During the year ending June 30, 1928, War Service agsisted Chapters in ad- Justing Government claims amounting, in benefits to veterans or their d¢pen dents, to $693,203.42 in awards for compensation, insurance, adjusted compensation, burial expenses, ete. In addition to this amount, which repre sented lump sum payments, awards were obtained for $183,389 in monthly installments of insurance and compens sation and in quarterly adjusted coms pens.tion payments. Mr, Fieser points out that Red Cross Roll Call comes once each year, and that it is the only occasion upon which the Red Cross asks for funds with which to carry on its activities, of which War Service is one, From Armistice Day to Thanksgiving Day the American people are asked to sup port this work through their Red Cross memberships. b o iesaeisiebuhnss i B Labor Head Asks Nation’s Workers to Support Red Cross William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, in Washington, calls upon the workers of the nation to support the twelfth annual roll call of the American Red Cross, November 11-29, in the following statement: “Through the American Red Cross we find expression for some of our noblest ideals. It is an ef foective instrument for magnitying many times our personal service to humanity. “In the face of great disasters, when the injured and homeless run into the thousands, there is little we can do individually. Consolidat ing our strength througl member ship in this great orgauization, our opportunity for service is unlim ited. 4 We must not forget that every day is a day of disaster to thou sands. Into homes where dlsaster strikes your Red Cross goes in your name to be friend and ccunselor to those upon whom misfortune has laid her heavy hand. “As President of the American Federation of Labor, I hope and feel confident that the workers ot the nation will respond to the Red Cross Roll Call and have a part in ‘thig organization’s great work.” (Signed) WILLIAM GREEN, President pia American Federation of Labor.
