RED CROSS PERFECTS ALLIANCE WITH
WAR Relief CLEARING HOUSE FOR
FRANCE AND HER ALLIES

The American Red Cross authorizes
the following:
A working alliance between the
war relief clearing house for France
and her allies and the American Red
Cross has been perfected, centralizing
in the Red Cross the function of re-
ceiving, transporting, and distributing
supplies abroad. This alliance is a
further application of the Red Cross
policy of cooperation with other re-
lief agencies, as exemplifed by the re-
cent joining of forces with the Amer
lean distribution service, the national
surgical dressings committee, and the
American Ambulance Hospital.
The war relief clearing house made
announcement Of its new cooperative
arrangement to its members in the
following notice, over the signature of
its executive secretary, Clyde A.
Pratt:

Cash Contributions Suggested

Cash Contributions Suggested
ON view Of the uncertainties Of
transportation and the grave subma-
rine danger it is most strongly urged
that contributions for France be made
in the form Of cash with which to
purchase articles in France wherever
possible, rather than in the form Of
supplies, except as information with
regard to existing needs in France
shall be from time to time furnished
by the Red Cross.
"In view of the establishment in
rars Of the American Red Cross Tor
France and Belgium, the necessity and
wisdom of which we fully indorse, we
venture to hope that all those who
have so effectively worked with the
clearing house in the interest Of the
sufferers abroad will recognize the de-
sirabality Of establishing and main
tanning full cooperation with the Red
Cross and that the distribution i'm
France of all supplies contributed by
them will be intrusted to the compe-
tent hands of the American Red
Cross for France and Belgium"

American Clearing House

"The American relief clearing
house in Paris was organized soon
after the outbreak of the war in 1914,
and since the organization of the war
relief clearing house for France and
her allies it has been its distributing
representative in France. For about
two years past it has also been the
official representative in France of the
American Red Cross.
"The entry of the United States
into the war has resulted in enormous
ly increasing the burdens Of the Amer
lean Red Cross in France, and to aid
in the situation there has been organ
lied in Paris the American Red Cross
for France and Belgium, to succeed
the American relief clearing house,
which as above stated, has for about
two years been the Red Cross repre-
sentative, and in order to secure the
greatest efficiency it has been found
necessary to place the administration
of the new organization on a strictly
military basis and to vest in it full
discretion with respect to the distri-
button Of relief supplies in France.
"The officers Of the American Red
Cross for France and Belgium are:
Maj. Grayson; NJ. P. Murphy, commits
sioner for Europe; James H. Perkins,
assistant; advisory council-WiIlam
G. Sharp, the American ambassador;
James SGllman, Edward Tuck; II. II.
Harjes, high commissioner for France
and Belgium Former president Of the
American relief clearing house in
Paris and president of the American
Red Cross in France; H. o. Beatty,
director general for France and Bel
gium (Ir. Beatty has for more than
two and One-half years been the ac-
tive and efficient head of the Ameri-
can clearing house in Paris; Ralph
j. Preston, assistant.

present war whole armies have been
forced to retreat or have suffered Sc
verely because Of the lack Of NUM-
tons. The quantity Of ammunitiOns
used daily is enormous. During the
French offensive of June, 1917, 12,-
100000 shots were fired from artillery
guns.
In the actual theater of war the
ammunition service is under the con-
troll Of the Field Artillery. Bringing
mn supplies of ammunition to troops
and to batteries in action is one of the
most essential Of all duties on the bat
tlefeld.' The wagons or trucks carry
inc ammunition must be driven when
necessary within easy reach Of the
firing line. Sometimes there is an OPP
portunity here for the display of re-
sourcefuness and courage far above
the ordinary requirements of the ser
vice
AT the Battle of Ypres in April,
1918, the Third Battery in the Third
Brigade of the Canadian Field Artil-
lery gaIloped into position within a
few hundred yards of the German
front. where they did gallant work in
lighting against overwhelming odds to
hold back the enemy's onslaught.
After time it became necessary to
bring up high explosive shells. One
Of the Canadian gunners tells how
they were brought
"The ammunition wagon containing
them came galIoping across the open
field under a heavy fire, the men lash
ing their horses and yelling like mad.
The horses were simply crazed. Some
of them had been hit with bullets,
and when they neared our guns the
men could not stop them. 1t looked
as though they would go right on to
the German lines. There was only
one thing to do. The rider of the
leading horses drew his revolver and
shot them dead. They went down,
with the other horses and men and
the wagon rolled over and over them.
With the high explosive shells we tore
the trees to bits and left the whole
place open; then our infantry, quickly
following up the advantage, drove the
Teutons back"
When the three fighting arms and
the nine staff corps are all brought
together under one control they form
what we may call "the fighting team"
This is the team in which you apd
every other soldier must be ready to
play your part.
The smallest unit in which all these
branches of the service is represented
is known as a division, Under pres.
emit regulations an Infantry division
is made up OF three infantry brigades;
one brigade of Field Artillery; one
regiment Of Cavalry; ono regiment Of
Engineers; one battalion of Signal
Corps; one squadron OK alrplanes; to-
gether with field trains and combat
trains carrying rations, baggage, am
munition, and all kinds o. supplies. A
division, therefore, is in itself a COM
plete small army. When at full
strength it includes 1884 officers and
men. A field army is made up Of a
number Of such divisions.
