MILITARY RELIEF
Unnecessary Waste in Giving Direct

/ While chapters are not prohibited
from equipping the drafted or enlisted
men leaving from their communities
with knitted articles and comfort kits
we are again moved to stronghIy dis
courage such giving, which we find
results in great waste.
! When The men arrive at the camps
Or cantonments practically everything
in the form of clothing is taken away
from them and they are equipped com
pately by the government. Such knit,
ted articles as they have are taken
up and turned over TO the quarGarmas-
1 ters department for storage during
the summer months and for reuova.
ton and reinsurance when the need
arises in the fall. Thus the personal
element is done away with in SC far
as knitted articles are concerned
It has also been found that many Of
the comfort kits furnished the men
when they leave home are lost or
destroyed en- route or in the confusion
attended upon theis arrival at the
camps There is little or no reason
/ for the men having comfort kits at
the outset Or until they appreciate the
benefits to be derived from them and
their absolute necessity at later
date.
Chapters, branches. auxil.aries and
Individuals may be assured that each
man in the American army and navy
viii receive from field directors in
the camps or at the points Of embarka-
ton such articles as are furnished by
the American Red Cross when they
are needed and in the number needed.
If this plan is followed there will be
no duplication and no possibility OF
anyone having two or three Of these
comfort kits, sweaters. etc, while
some other man goes without and
no waste of Red Cross money in this
regard
In accordance with the above sug.
gestions issued by Red Cross division
headquarters, regarding the distribu,
ton of comfort kits and knitted goods
to select men leaving for camp, the
Marion county chapter has adopted
the following plan:
TO discontinue the giving OF com
fort kits, sweaters or socks to the Sc
iect men on leaving for camp instead
to give each mar a package Of choco-
late, smokes or its equivalent
