in other parts of the country turn to
this state for the investments that they

upon. These committees also looked
after the further protection of the So
cieties In their various countries and
in a short time nearly every country
which signed the Geneva articles had
an active Red Cross society. The So

wards established the work in the
United States was privileged to accom-.
pany the Swiss committee through the

Many Nurses Required.
The question Of providing nurses il
the great problem which all foreign
Red Cross societies have found the
most difficult. In Great Britain there
is a special division Of the Red Cross
called the Army Nursing Reserve: In
France there is tho Red Cross school
for nurses in Paris which has sup
piled 46l nurses and conducts seven
other schools elsewhere in the coun-
try; in Germany the society ha. over
1000 nurses on its list; in Austria 900
nurses are at the disposal Of the Red
Cross hospital service; Hungary Is
equally well equipped: Russia has
1000 nurses Of whom 2,b79 are nurs-
ing sisters who have received q two
and one-half years training: the
Japanese Red Cross trains its own
nurses and In return for this training
the nurses sign an agreement. the men
for ten years and the women for NJ
teen years. by which their services. II
required. are at the call Of the 80
ciety. The Japanese nurses not only
work in the hospitals and on the bat.
tlefield but each large railroad station
and steamer landing has it's corps of
Red Cross doctors and nurses to look
after the comfort and health of the
soldier.
Mrs. Erdman' then took up the con-
dition of the society In this country
and stated that though the United
States signed the treaty in 1882 the
Red Cross never became a national or.

of only 200 or 800 members save when

Independent auxiliarie No attempt
seems ever to have been made to carry
out In times OF peace the suggestion to
maintain a corps Of trained nurses, the
original purpose Of the organization.
However the country has recognized
the great need of such q service in
times OF great disasters such "a ires,
earthquakes, etc.. and in 1906 CON-
