Cross are malicious inventions whose

qualified denial of them in the names

H. P. DAWSON,
Chairman, Red Cross War Council.
The stories in circulation of relig-
ious distinction and discrimination on
the part of the Red Cross are mali
cious falsehoods whose source and
purpose | cannot even surmise. No
regulations which would exclude the
splendid women of the orders of the
Roman Catholic Church have been
proposed or considered in the Red
Cross Councils nor would they be con-
sidered. am familiar with the record
of the Catholic Sisterhoods in other
wars. | have seen their work in this
terrible conflict, especially in France,
and my attitude is one of unqualified
admiration. The American Red Cross
will welcome and prize their service
in the work it has undertaken.
H. P. DAWSON,
Chairman, Red Cross War Council.
The following letter makes plain
and evident the attitude of the Ameri-
can Red Cross in the matter:
THE AMERICAN RED CROSS.
Washington, D. C.
June %, 1917
The Most Reverend John Ireland,
ST. Paul, Minnesota.
Most Reverend and Dear Sir:
The question of the attitude of the
American Red Cross toward utilizing
the services of Nursing Sisterhoods
adas beca raised scgeral times lately.
of some of these questions that
rumor was being deliberately circu
lated that the American Red Cross
was in an unfavorable attitude toward
allowing the Sisterhoods to assist in
the care of wounded soldiers and
sailors.
During the Spanish American War,
a number of members of Sisterhoods
wore their garb while serving as
nurses in military hospitals in Florida
and elsewhere. Such service is pro-
vided for by the rules governing the
Nursing Service of the Red Cross.
Rule 8, of the Duties of Committees
on Nursing Service of the American
Red Cross, adopted nearly eight years
ago, recites that it is the duty of the
Committee
( ''To keep on file lists of Sisterhoods
and other orders, and women volun-
teers available for Red Cross relief
work involving the care of the sick
or wounded, either in time of war or
calamity"
1t seems advisable to state un-
equivocally to you at this time that
members of the Nursing Sisterhoods
may wear their official dress while
serving as nurses under the Red
Cross, and that the Red Cross had no
desire in any way to debar the Sisters
on account of their dress, or on any
other account. from serving their
country as all other nurses will desire
to do.
Most sincerely yours,
ELIOT WADSWORTH,
Acting Chairman.

RUMOR SPREAD ABROAD THAT
SISTERS HAVE BEEN BARRED
FROM SERVING IN WAR RELIEF
LETTERS AND TELEGRAMS
SHOW THAT RUMoR is WHOLLY
UNFOUNDED.

Recently a rumor has found cur
rency in the Catholic press to the eff
feet that the American Red Cross has
Disseminated against the members OF
our Catholic Sisterhoods. 1t has been
stated that the Sisters will not be
allowed to wear their religious garb
when engaged in war relief work, and
that they will be obliged to enlist as
individual members of the Red Cross,
and not as members of religious COM
munities. We are pleased to subjoin
the following documents which show
that no discrimination whatever has
been intended, or that any shall be
made. ....-s... .

Most Rev. John Ireland, D. D.,

Your Grace:
There are in circulation, from
sources which we have been unable
to trace, a series of false statements
as to the attitude of the American
Red Cross toward the sisterhoods of
the Roman Catholic Church, and
toward Catholic workers in general
who may enter the field of war relief
In denial and denunciation of these
malicious and injurious tales Mr.. H.
P. Dawson, Chairman of the Red
Cross War Council, has despatched a
series of kilograms which he believes
e Your Grace will be interested in see
Ing. Therefore, am, under his direc-
ton, enclosing them to you in this
letter. Should any aspect of this un-
fortunate incident manifest itself in
the Archdiocese of Your Grace, Mr..
Dawson will be glad to have you
make any use of these kilograms that
your judgment dictates. He and the,
members of the Red Cross War CoStn-
Gil will also be very glad to. answer
further inquiries, should Your Grace
desire it, or to furnish any informa-
tion as to the American Red Cross
requested by you.
