RED CROSS RELIEF TO
SOLDIERS And SAILORS
Suggestions And Certain Rules Con-

The Overseas Forces.

Suggestions And Certain Rules Con-
corning Communication Service for
The Overseas Forces.
l. The American Red Cross can
letters. parcels or money to individu-
ais in the EXpeditionary Forces.
These must be sent according to reg
ulations which may be obtained at
any postoffice.
2. The rule of the War Depart
ment that parcels may not be sent
to an individual except on requisi-
ton signed by the Commanding Off
Ger applies equally to Red Cross and
other civilian workers in Europe. 1t
is regulation made absolutely nee
essary by the serious overcrowding
OF the mails with non-essentials
3. Inquiries about individuals
should always be sent to the Bureau
of Communication, American Red
Cross, Washington, d. c., not direct
to Paris or London. The reasons for
this are that an address is always
verified before being sent on; that if
necessary information is omitted
from the request it can be secured
without loss of time; that the in
quiry will reach Paris or London
with less delay.
4. Answers to inquiries will be
sent to the Bureau of Communica-
ton in Washington and then for
warded to the families. This is a
rule of the War Department. 1t saves
time because the Postofice Depart
ment has kindly consented to have
this casualty mail enclosed in a spe-
cial package in Paris and sent direct
to the American Red Cross in Wash
ington. 1t insures accuracy of de-
livery because addresses are often
changed and letters sent direct from
France might therefore never be de-
livered. 1t insures accuracy of state
ment because conditions have often
changed between the time that re-
port leaves Paris and the time it
reaches Washington. Under present
conditions from two to three weeks
elapse between mailing and delivery
of letters from abroad.
). Inquiries are normally for
warded and received by the Bureau
of Communication by mail. The cable
will not be used except in cases Of
urgent necessity, such as serious ill
ness in a family. The Army has rul
ed that detailed casualty informa-
tion shall not be sent by cable, since
the Atlantic cables are seriously ov
ercrowded, and if such information
were cabled in all cases it would be
impossible to use the cables for any
other work.
6. When a man is reported miss
ing it is absolutely unnecessary TO;
make inquiry in Europe about him,
because, in all cases, this is done
without special request and any facts
procured are sent immediately to the
Bureau of Communication to be for
warded to the family.
Z. If inquiry concerning an in
dividual is made of the Bureau Of
Communication by Red Cross
Chapter. or any other organization,
the name and address of the next OF
kin should be included, as it is a War
Department regulation that casualty
information be sent to the family di-
rect. If there is good reason against
this, such as the fact that the family
does not speak English, the organi-
zation making the inquiry should ex-
plain the fact so that the Bureau of
Communication will have authority
to answer through third party.
