Tho Alliance
Chapter of the Rod
Cross la huffily en-
;aged these days In
milling warm wool
n alleles for the
sold lera now In
France. J. J.
O'Connor diector of
tho central divlalon of tho Red Cross
with headquarter at Chicago, in a
let I or to the Herald received this
week; uskiis this bapo to give addi
tional prominence to the emergency
that has arisen In which the welfare
of our soldiers in Kanre la at stake.
A Mil fo help hHB come from the
battl front in France on behalf of
American soldiers, the soldiers of
their Allies. and of the destitute civ
ilians of devastated Belgium and
Northern France. Six million warm
knitted woolen articles ure needed to
help them get through the wlutor.
The appeal bus come to the Ameri
can lied Cross at Washington, and
it specifics 1,500.000 each of sweat
ers, mufflers, wristlets and socks.
The call is official. Major Gray
son M. F. Murphey of General Per
shing's staff, the Red Cross Commis
sioner for Kuope, who knows better
pehaps than any other man Just how
badly these things are needed, has
cabled for them. Here Is part of his
message:
"Last winter broke the record for
cold and misery nrhong the people
here. We inexpressibly dread the
coining winter finding us without
supplies to meet the sltuaUon. We
urge you, on behalf of our soldiers
and those of our Allies, who will suf
fer in their frozen trenches, and al
so thousands of French and Belgian
refugees, to begin shipping at once
1.500.000 each of the warm, knitted,
woolen articles named. They must
come before cold weather."
The entire people of the land are
called upon to render this service to
the men In khaki, and those struggl
ing with them. The hearts of the
people will be in the tn.sk because
their own are among those who need
the service. Every county, every
village, every voting precinct, is send
ing of its best to fight for the coun
try, and the woman who knits one
of these garments feels, with every
stitch, thut it may be her own son,
her own brother, or one of her dear
est friends, who may be kept more
comfortable by her work.
From Director John J. O'Connor
of the Central Division or the Red
Cross, with headquurters at Chicago
Die call went forth to 1,081 chapter
In the Central Stutes. . urging the
members to answer the call. The
chapters called on the Red Cross
Supply Service for yarn, knitting
needles, and full instructions for the
knitting. In the meantime, knitting
committees were formed in the chap
ters, and volunteers called for.
The Supply Service was forced to
asl soil).' chapters to buy their yarn
and needles from whatever source
they could most quickly pet them.
Th" Supply Service had on hand
enough goods to fill nueh an unpre
cedented demand on such short not

I . aa rapidly ns they were needed
he printed instructions for the knit
ing, and the' newspapers were called
on to print the directions so that ev-
ry knitter tnigltt have a copy.
BvjI the work must be hurried.
They must come before cold weatb-
r," cabled Major .Murphey. That
means that the entire 6.00.00 articles
must be completed in the shortest
possible time, and sent to France.
The chapters were urged to use every
possible minute, nnd to call on every
woman nnd girl who can knit, whetii
er r not she is a Red Cross mem
ber, and ask her to help in the work.
We in America, who as yet can
scarcely realize that our country is
it, war. have no conception of the
terrible need of the millons of peo
ple in France and Belgium whose
lands are overrun by the Germans.
Utterly penniless, with no possess-
sions save the ragged domes on
their backs, they suffered incredibly
by tens of thousands last winter.
Now thev fade another winter, weak
ened by the trials they have already
undergone, and it is ' up o tn Keo
