OTHER WAR RELIEF Or
CARNATIONS BECOMING
ALLIED With AMERICAN
RED CROSS
Washington, D. c., Aug. 5.


Ever since the Red Cross War
Council was appointed by President
Wilson earnest efforts have been
made to secure effective co-opera-
ton with the Red Cross by all the
allied war relief organizations. The
first important fruit of these eff
forts Is the establishment of a
working plan CT cooperation with
the National Surgical Dressing Com
mittee Henry P. Dawson, chairman
Of the Red Cross War Council, to-
day authorizes the following state
ment:
THE Red Cross is very gratified
to be able to announce that
the National Surgical Dressings
Committee, one of the most impor-
tant of the relief organizations call
ed into being by the European War,
has become an auxiliary of the
American Red Cross. The arrange
ment was perfected after protracted
negotiations between Mrs. Mary
Hatch Willard, the organizer and
chairman of the Surgical Dressings
Committee, and Judge Robert S.
Lovett, chairman of the Red Cross
Committee on Cooperation.
ut is believed that this is the pre-
cursor of arrangements to be made
whereby other war relief organiza-
tions may become allies Of the Red
Cross and join with it in carrying a
practical message Of aid and relief
among those of eur own people and
our allies who may be sick, wound
ed, and suffering because of this
war.
'.The National Surgical Dressings
Committee has done marvellous
work. 1t has made and forwarded
over 100000 dressings for use in
over 1900 hospitals on the CONT
nent Of Europe. It's aim has been to
prepare dressings with special re-
ference to the particular needs in
different localities, and it's work has
been handled with great efficiency
and with splendid spirit. The COM
mittee has about $4,000. working
members in different parts of the
United States.
1.-The arrangements with the Red
Cross provides that the Surgical
Dressings Committee shall retain its
name and organization, and carry on
its present work in the United
States as national auxiliary Of the
Red Cross. 1t may solicit funds in its
own name, but no solicitation shall
be made in the name of the Red
Cross unless all the proceeds there
from are turned over to the Red.
Cross organization. The committee
will give full reports concerning its
activities and finances to the Red
Cross.
''The Red Cross will seek to per-
feet the standards of materials sent
abroad, and will disseminate among
all Chapters and organizations doing
relief work informatiA os to the
nature and quality of materials and
supplies most NEEDED at the front,
The Surgical Dressings Committee,
in its work for American hospitals in
Europe, will conform to such stand
ards.
'The French section of this com
mittee will become the Surgical
Dressings Service Department of the
National Red Cross. 1t will
in France all the sur
gical dressings work of the Red
Gross, and will be in charge of Mrs.
c. K. Austin, heretofore director in
Paris of the French-section of the
Surgical Dressings Committee.

YOUNG LADIES HAVE SUC-
CESFUL DAY AT THEATRE.

The young ladies of the Junior Unit
National Council of Defense, scored
quite success Wednesday last when
they presented the splendid photo
play, 100000 Leagues Unler the Sea-
a. the Palace Theatre. Large crowds
were in attendance upon the ply
throughout the day and all expressed
delight over the marvellous screen
production. A nice sum was realized
by the young ladies from the proceeds
of the day, which was added to the
soldiers knitting fund.
The chairman of the Junior Unit
National Council of Defense, Miss Lu-
Gle Williams, and all her splendid CO.
workers deeply appreciate Mr. Gains
generosity and patriotism in turning
over to them his theatre on this oc-
casion for the soldier boys.
$4,000 worth of wool has been or
dered by the young ladies', and some
of the knitters in the community will
be making their needles fly, trying to
provide comfort articles for soldiers.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE
A CONSERVING FORCE

Falling in line with the offer of war
service made by the National Ameri.
can Woman Suffrage Association to
the President of the United States,
various state suffrage associations
have called their members into real
and practical service.
The first act Of the president OF
the Nebraska State Suffrage Associa.
ton, Mrs. W. E. Barley, was to line
up her members in suffrage thrift
clubs. Many Nebraska home-makers
have been in the habit Of ordering
in the summer, the winters supply
of vegetables and fruits from their
local grocers. This year the stats
suffrage organization is awakening its
members to the fact that Nebraska
women can raise and put up their
own foodstuffs, and so free the pro
fduce of the canning factories for ex'
portation or for the army, wherever.
in fact, it will be most needed.
