Red Cross Is Seeking ,
Vessel to Send Abroad

The American Red Cross is today
negotiating for the charter of a ves-
sci to be fitted up as an international
hospital ship for service wherever it
is most needed in Europe. This action
was determined upon at a joint meet ..
ing of the international and war re-
lief board of the society held in the
office of Surgeon General Gorgas of
the army
Official notice of the fitting out of
the ship will be sent to all of the
European nations through the State
Department. The vessel will be fitted
out with all facilities of a modern
hospital and will be equipped with a
large corps of doctors and nurses. she
will be painted white, with a broad
band of red and will have the insignia
IF the order painted upon her stalks
w:rh the Red Cross flag flying from
her masthead.
In issuing a formal appeal TO The
American people for funds for the fit-
ting out of the ship, the call states:
This ship. sailing under the Red
Cross flag. will be under the protec-
ton OF the treaties of Geneva ard
The Hague, and can enter any harbor
for the discharge of its benefcent
duty. In no other way can this
trained personnel, so greatly needed,
reach the different countries. Protec-
ton is provided also for the per-
sonnet Of the Red Cross societies of
neutral states that render aid by the
treaty of Geneva"
