AMERICA FIGHTS
FOR EXISTENCE,
SAYS DAWSON
Head of Red Cross War
Council Pleads for Sacri-
flee to Uplift National Life

WASHINGTON. June 15.-Sacrifics
which the var will bring 10 needed by
America TO lift its people to the spirit
ual exaltation developed In Europe's
warning nation, Henry ?. Dawson.
Chairman Of the Red Cross War Coun-
Gil, told the Washington Chapter Of the
Red Cross today.
II wish for no H." he said. "but !
hope and pray that whatever may be
needed to arouse US to sense OF sac.
rifice and cleanse us from our selflsn-
ness will come to US.
Dawson expressed doubt If more
than one percent of Americans, real.
ize that we are today not only fighting
for the principles upon which our re-
public was founded. but for our very
existence"
On Higher Plane.
People Of England and France also
were slow to change their ideals early
in the war, he said. but now 1t seems
as II their affection and regard Tor
mankind had UNNECESSARILY increased.
They seem to be without malice or de-
sign. envy or jealousy. without sodid
ambition--to be living on higher I'D
better plane. Even with their terrible
sorrow and suffering they seem to be
stronger, surer and more content to
meet whatever may be given them to
meet.
THE process of fire which has thus
purified them has been for our &C
count as we'll as their own.
Practical in Thoughts.
Il hope you will not think me an
ideslist; was never more practical In
my thoughts. It is perhaps an apprec-
iation OF this that has caused me to go
to the Red Cross.
"For I firmly believe that through
the Red Cross we can not only render
a service to the people Of our allies
to those who are today fighting for us
but we can bring forcefully to our
people sense both Of their cbliga'
ton and Of their opportunity, and am
optimistic enough to believe that the
men and women of this country will, In
not a far distant day rejoice in sacri
fice--in real sacrifice-and demand
that the Red Cross shall carry to the
peoples then living Of all our allies the
heartfelt appreciation Of what they
have done for US. and express such
appreciation by every possible aid and
support within their power to send"
