NEED IS GREAT
FOR DRESSINGS
Soldiers Wounds Being Stop
ped With Newspapers
on Battlefield.

Owing to the tremendous pressure
on military hospitals in France to
care for the thousands OF soldiers
wounded in the violent lighting now
in progress around Arras and in
Champagne. all available surgical
dressing supplies that can be spared
are being sent to France from the
workrooms of the New York county
chapter of the American Red Cross.
While this special need lasts. and
perhaps for the entire war, the de-
partments of foreign and American
military relief of the large work
room maintained by the chapter at
All Fifth av. have merged. Thus
the output of the 1900 and more
workers there. amounting TO more
than 5000 dressings a week, will
be pooled for distribution at the dis
erection of the central committee of
the Red Cross. Where gifts for
designated countries are received
these will continue to be applied as
before.
How serious the situation abroad
is. is shown by this bulletin that has
just been received by the American
Red Cross:
For lack OF sufficient dressings
the wounds Of soldiers on the bat
tlehelds of France are now being
stopped in many cases with news
papers. Rather than bleed TO death
on the battlefield men run the ter
rible ri9 Of gangrene and other
Infection"
Twenty-Five tons Of supplies for
French and Belgian hospitals are in
Guided in Red Cross shipment
that left an American port a few
days ago. Included in this ship
ment are $4,000 cans Of condensed
milk being sent for the relief of
undernourished children in the de-
wasted regions of France.
Another Red Cross shipment soon
10 go forward is an entire ambu-
lance unit given by the American
Cotton Waste exchange Of Boston.
This unit consists OF % automobile
ambulances. kitchen trailer wagons
that can be attached 10 the cars.
and the necessary. supply trucks.
The entire unit will he manned by
