NOT TO NEGLECT GERMAN
WOUNDED OR PRISONERS
Statement Regarding Attitude o.

GBy Associated Press.l

lBy Associated Press.
WASHINGTON. August lO.-A late
ment making 1t clear that the Ameri-
can Red Cross Will not neglect Ger
man wounded or prisoners. and will
welcome cooperation from Americans
OF German origin. was authorized to-
night by Chairman Dawson. Of the
Red Cross Wal Council.
When war was declared between
the United States and Germany" said
Mr.. Dawson. the neutrality OF the
American Red Cross Of course ended
automatically. The American Red Cross
can cooperate only behind the lines
OF the armies of the United States and
its allies. But the Red Cross knows
no such thing as the nationality OF a
wounded man. Any wounded enemy
turned over to the care OF the American
Red Cross Will receive as kindly treat
mcnt as any friend.
AS to the policy Of the Red Cross
in this country toward those Of Ger
man origin: The Red Cross knows no
difference and makes no distinction
between any American citizen. Inso-
far as base hospital units arc con
cerned. the Red Cross eQuips and en-
lists the personnel OF those to be sent
to Europe to operate. not only with
our W armies. but with those OF our
allies. Once enlisted and mustered into
service, these units become part OF the
army of the United States. and there
is. OF course. no discrimination by the
Rec Cross or the American army
against any loyal American citizen. no
matter OF what national origin"

obviously. the task Of providing for
the financial assistance of the fami-
lies OF our soldiers and sailors Is so
large that the government alone can

No voluntary organization. or organi-

duty of such magnitude.
The American people will not, of
course. permit families to suffer be-
cause their bread winners are lighting
for their country. Cases will undoubt-
eddy arise wherein the allowance OF
the government will not be adequate
to protect a family from financial dis
tress. Such instances the Red Cross
will hope TO provide for through its
chapters.
