L. N. JORDAN In this year of the leutli anniversary of tlie ArmiFtlce. which ended the world war, the American Red Cross •till finds a great army of disabled and sick veterans requiring assistance, anil whoso famllii•• also must bo aided. Fieser. vice chairman in cliar;:e of do mestic operations of tho Red Cross at Washington. In the :ui years since November 11, 1918, the Red Cross has expended approximately $65,800,000 in veteran relief work. Mr. Fieser said. There Is a dally average of 25,500 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* woutuis 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 tegular establishment of Army. Navy and Marine Corps, and follows them to all foreign ports or duty. The expenditure in this work for the year ending June 20, 1928, was $207,458, the annual report states. "Upon the Red Cross rests the sa cred obligation of carrying on relief work for the disabled sen*iee and ex- service men and women and their de pendents, taking up the work where the Government is not able to carry on," Mr. Fieser said. "The Red Cross bos 349 trained workers, serving either full or part time in the field, in liaison work, camps and hospitals, who are always in personal contact with the sick and disabled in hospitals, with the men In the regular Army, Navy and Marine Corps, and wh stand ever ready to serve veterans back In civil life, who need the help of a friendly agency to aid in establishing their rights and claims. ‘To maintain this staff and to sup port the practical services they ren der, the Rod Cross made expenditure of $1,1G9,795 for the year ending June 30, 1928. In addition 2,700 Red Cross Chapters, In that number of communi ties, who have cztr.blkrkcd rpcrlal work for the disabled service and ex- service people, expended during the past year $1,732,000.” The annual report states that the number of death claims alouo of vet erans which are handled through the War Service at national headquarters of the Red Cross, has Increased from 12,010 in 1923-24 to 24,602 in 1927-28. During the year ending June 30, 1928, War Service assisted Chapters in ad justing Government claims amounting, in benefits to veterans or their depen dents, to $693,203.42 In awards for compensation. Insurance, adjusted compensation, burial expenses, etc. In addition to this amount, which repre sented lump sum payments, awards were obtained for $183,389 in monthly installments of. insurance and compen sation and in quarterly adjusted com pensation 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.

In order to enable the American Red Cross to carry on Its broad activi ties, ranging from servico to the world war veteran to instant response in timo of disaster, a membership of 5,000,000 should be enrolled, and In this year of 1928-1929 that Is the goal set for the twelfth annual roll call, to bo held from November 11 to 29, Armis tice to Thanksgiving Day. John Barton Payne, chairman of the American Red Cross at Washington, in calling upon the nation for 5,000.000 adult members, directs attention to the great expenditures required of the Red Cross for disaster and veteran re lict woik, and for its many other ac tivities devoted to health preservation and improvement and to cutting down the number of accidental deaths, through life saving and first aid courses. "The Red Cross should at all times have a large reserve fund." Judge Payne slated, "because when disaster ■trikes, and this organization Is called Into instant action, there is no time to stop and raise funds. Dollars may meuu lives, so we should have at all times a good reserve. We have been forced each year to draw upon our reserves, and we find that the de mands are increasing annually." Judge Payne pointed out that in the fiscal year of 1927-28, the Red Cross had extended aid in 66 major catastro phes in the United States and its Insular possessions, and in 22 nations abroad. This does not include the West Indies hurricane disaster in Porto Rico and Florida, which oc curred after the close of the Red Cross fiscal year, June 30, 1928. The Red Cross expenditures for dis aster in that period were $16,544.- 258.87, of which approximately $13.- 000.00U was expended in the Missis sippi Valley for the flood relief work, which came from a fund coutributed by the public. More than $1,000,000 was expended in the St. Louis tornado damage, and more than $1,000,000 in New England. In both cases public relief funds were raised, although in New England tlio Red Cross contribu ted iu excess of $500,000 from lts own funds for the relief work. In the ma jority of the other 66 disasters, and In all of the 22 foreign catastrophes in which the Red Cross extended aid. the money came from its own re sources. The largest item in the annual bud get of the Red Cross is for its veteran relief and work for disabled ex-service and service men, upon which it ex pended in this year $1,169,795. Every man and woman is asked by Judge Payne to Join the Red Cross during the roll call period, to aid in these humanitarian enterprises. WANTED—Young Lady of Gentle man office assistant.
