RED CROSS AIDS AILIDG SOLDIERS Organization Asked by Govern ment to Seek Out Disabled Ex-Service Men. FREE HOSPITAL CARE GIVEN United States Pays Compensation While Treatments Are Adminis tered in Public Health Institutions. The American Red Cross has been asked by the United States govern ment to use its effi cient organization to seek out disa bled and ill ex service men, and to try to Induce them to accept the government’s offer to provide free treatment in public service hospitals, and compensation while the treatment is being adminis tered. The government estimates that there are fully 50,000 men in this country who are unable to work at full ca pacity heeause of wounds or disease contracted in the line of duty who should be receiving this treatment. So far only about 4,000 men have applied for such service. A statement issued from the na tional headquarters of the Red Cross In Washington shows that a great mis apprehension exists among the dis charged men regarding the govern ment's plan. “Due to misunderstandings and mis apprehension a surprising number of disabled service men are scattered throughout the country not knowing the benefits which are still theirs,” the statement read. “ ‘Back to the hospital’ after he has donned ‘civvies’ and tried to keep go ing at civilian occupation is about the hardest order a soldier wants to hear. Acceptance of the government offer does not menu a return to service. The hospitals are civilian institutions. They are separate institutions, nnd are not connected in any way with the army or navy. ‘‘The Red Cross is constantly dis covering- men who, through Ignorance or prejudice, are losing the advantages of this wonderful service. So effective has this work become that the govern ment has asked the Red Cross to make this a part of Its regular relief work. All that is necessary is for the ex service man to apply to the nearest Red Cross chapter. Arrangements will be made there for him to enter one of these hospitals after examina tion by a district public health officer, and if his trouble is the result of serv ice with the army or navy he will be given transportation nnd admittance to a public service hospital. “The Red Cross is now engaged in maintaining a program of recreation, occupational therapy, meeting the problems arising in the homes of disa bled men, household and legal difficul ties and affording many miscellaneous services to keep the men who are in the hospitals contented with their lot.” This work of the Red Cross is one of the important branches outlined for its post war work and a port of the funds raised in the Third Red Cross Roll Call, November 2 to 11, will be devoted to this purpose. LOANS $50,000 TO SOLDIERS. □ Loans totaling approximately $50,000 have been advanced tc about 4,000 disabled soldiers by the American Red Cross for personal uses while these war veterans were ad justing their affairs with the federal board for vocational training. These loan are in no sense looked upon as charity either by the soldiers or the Red Cross, the latter considering this bit of financial assistance a part of Its war obligation. Red Cross liaison officers are In touch with all the district officers ot the vocational board and the public beulth service. These Red Cross men are able to help the soldiers when the government checlT mfseurries, during the interval between approval for schools and placement In school, when subsistence and transportation are needed by thos^ denied training, and under various other conditions. HUGE OVERSEA SHIPMENTS MADE BY RED CROS8. □ Two million erntes, bundles or barrels, weighing 218,310,0<mi pounds were shipped by the Amerlcnn Red Cross to twenty-one countries from ten ports In the United States between April 1, 1017 and July 1, 1010, according to re ports sent to natlonnl headquarters in Washington. This tremendous volume of business was shipped across the At lantic and I’uclflc oceans during the war and nfter the signing of the armis tice from New York, Baltimore, Bos ton, Montreal, Newport News, New Orleans, Philadelphia, San Francisco nnd Senttle. In addition to this great store of supplies, the Bed Cross pur chased supplies in the countries where It operated, both for the soldiers and afflicted civilians. “Our patriotism should stand the test of peace as well as war. There Is a necessary work to be performed bef*re the American Bed Cross can withdraw from Europe.”—President Wilson. N. A. A. C. P. MET AT ZION BAPTIST CHURCH ! — The N. A. A. C. P. met Sunday afternoon at Zion Baptist church. The president being absent, Mr. H. J. Pinkett presided.
