Fiescr, vice chalrsaa in charge of do mestlc operations of the Red Cross at Washington. In the ten years since November 11, 1918, the Red Cross has expended approximately $65,300,009 in veteran relief work. Mr. Flcser said. There is a dally average of 25.609 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. Fleser pointed out. j 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 and 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 pendents. taking up the work where the Government Is not able to carry on," Mr. Fleser said. ''The Red Cross has 349 trained workers, serving cither full or part time in the field, in liaison work, camps nnd hospituls. who are always in personal contact with the sick and disabled in hospitals, with tho men in the regular Army, Navy and Marine Corps, and who stund ever ready to serve veterans back In civil life, who need the help of * friendly agency to aid in establishing their rights and claims. “To maintain this staff and to sup port tho practical services they ren der, the Red Cross made expenditure of $1,1G9,795 for the year ending June 20, 192S. In addition 2.700 Red Cross Chapters, in that number of communi ties, who have established special work for the disabled service anu ex- service people, expended during the past year $1,732,000.” The annual report states that the number of death claims alone of vet erans which are handled through the War Service at national headquarters of tho Rod Cross, has Increased from 12,010 In 1923-24 to 24.G02 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 la awards for compensation, insurance, adjusted compensation, burial expenses, cte. In addition to this amount, which repre sentod lump Bum payments, awards wero obtained for-$183,389 in monthly installments of insurance and compen sation and in quarterly adjusted com pensation payments.
