it Is the consensus of opinion that
the coming drive Is the most important
ever undertaken by the Red Cross. In
uMttuch as the results will deteruiint
to a large extent the possibilities of
future Red Cross endeavors
Is (here an unspoken question in
[your mind as to why the Red Cross
Is conducting a drive? if so, perhaps
the following brief outlino • "ill answer
your query:
The Red Cross, first of all, must
take care of the wounded anil disabled
soldiers in the hospitals. Thousands
-of men are still In the hospitals,
abroad in the Army r' Occupation, in
the camps awaiting discharge anil It
service on the border. Tlie Red Cros
i-.ust continue to care for these men
until the last man is home.
, The safety of f m< r' i hinges on the
I checking of disease and Bols'.c-vl t
| abroad. The Red Cross must complete
its obligations to fortftgn countiles
lied Cross relief commissions have
won their way into the hearts of these
! suffering peoples and have at hand the
means for the solution of their prob
llcms.
The Red Cross must answer the call
,!of the American people. The toll of
I the influenza epidemic, the health con
'dltlons revealed by the draft, alarm-
ing statistics concerning infant mortal-
ity, have added to the growing reall
•/ut'ton that public welfare depends
on public health. The American peo-
ple are becoming aroused to the urgent
need of health knowledge. They have
.realized the value of Red Cross Home
Service for its activities have reached
communities where no other social
agency is at work. They are learning
to appreciate that the future of Amer
ilea depends on the training for clt
Izenship of the coming generations.
America is turning to the Red Cross
for help in solving these community
■ problems.
One of the best reasons for the
maintenance of the Red Cross at its
present high state of roorganl7.a:lon
and efficiency Is to bf found in the
I rompt iellef measures taken du'iug
the recent storms that swept the Texas
I ooast.
, The Red Cross, one of whose objects
Lis to minimize suffering after just
i much a disaster, had machinery in
' leadlness that was put Into instant
i operation. Tluise left dependent by
I injury and death were not compelled
I to rely upon a haphazard improvised
| organization to collect funds and dis-
I tribute inefficiently and wastefully the
'means of relief. On the flrst receipt
i of the news of the disaster, relief
trains were made up at I.aredo and
' San Antonio, Tex., trained disaster re
lief officials left St. Louis to take
.charge of the disbursement of sup
plies, while at Galveston a government
vessel was hurriedly Impressed Into
feervlce to carry relief supplies.
The duty of liberal all-the-year-
round support of the Red Cross is
made plain.
