Major Murphy Gables Spec.
iaI Appeal to Red Cross
From France.

A cable appeal for the immediate
shipment OF supplies to France has
reached the American Red Cross from
Major Grayson, M. P. Murphy today
Major Murphy, as the head Of the
Red Cross Commission in France,
has been making q survey Of eondt'
tions in the war zone and the districts
which harbor refugees. The cable re-
ceived today emphasizes the urgent
need in Europe for vast amounts OF
hospital and knitting supplies. Major
Murphy cables:
Begin shipping at once one
and one.half million each knit"
ted mutflers, sweaters, socks and
WHISTLES. There are desperately
needed before cold weather. In
view Of the shortage OF fuel and
other discomforts they will be OF
incredible value in both military
and civilian work
Last winter broke the record
for cold and misery among the
people here. They inexpressiVely
dread lest the coming winter find
US without supplies to meet the
situation. urge you on behalf
of our soldiers and those OF our
allies who will suffer in the frozen
trenches. Thousands of Belgian
and French refugees and repatri-
ates are being returned through
Switzerland to France"
The Woman's Bureau of the Red
Cross, under the direction of Miss
Florence NJ. Marshall, has prepared
directions with complete information
as to the knitted articles asked for
by Major Murphy. The circular which
will be available to any woman who
applies to the nearest Red Cross
chapter tells exactly how to obtain
yarn, detailed knitting instructions
and where to send the garments for
immediate shipment to France.
What the work should go forward
as rapidly as possible, and with no
chance Of falling down." an allott'
ment Of the great task is being made
by the national authorities to the
thirteen division managers of the Red
Cross who dirtct Its administration
under the new decentralization plan
The division managers, when the!
have been informed Of their teritory's
total share, will divide the work
among the chapters in their divisions
The allotment system follows the
general spirit Of the Liberty Loar
and the Draft army. Each section
of the country will have its specified
part to do. Every chapter will know
the number of wooden sweaters ant
other articles that must be knitted
by the women whose willingness t.
serve has been registered with them
The work must be done with all pos
sible speed. Finished articles will
be shipped from the chapter to the
nearest point of trans-oceanic ship
ment under national directions
