EACH DOLLAR WORTH s1.5e

Based on actual experience during the first three months of this year, each dol lar of Red Cross money spent in fur nishing relief supplies accomplished the same as $1.59 would accomplish if spent through an efficient commercial organ ization for the same purpose. This 5s cents which your dollar gains when spent through the Red Cross for relief supplies is made possible because:
 First-By the enormous amount of free labor donated by millions of Red Cross workers throughout the country.
 Second-T Through the ability of the pur- chasing department to secure the aid and cooperation of governmental insti- tutions. both the American and those of the allies, for obtaining supplies at less than commercial market values, and also to the great generosity shown to the Red Cross by many manufacturers and mer- chants in their willingness to give sub- stantial concessions.
 Third Through shipping space fur nished without cost by the American and allied governments and by various steam ship companies.
 Fourth-Through numerous Jniscella- neous facilities furnished without cost for handling supplies; such as ware house and port service, insurance ob- |tained without payment of brokerage fee and similar services.

 As the Red Gross is increasing in importance, extending the scope of it's work, and becoming more popular, it IS increasingly necessary to see that the public at all points of contact receives courteous and cousiderate treatment
 There is nothing more important than the treatment of the individual who is actuated by a desire for service or prompted by interest to make inquiry for additional information. They should all ways be made to go away satisfied and with a kindly word to say for the treat ment received
 T believe it would be desirable to have in each chapter q committee on person. mel or a committee on information who would endeavor to find work for those offering their services and to give sat isfactory information to others who de- sire it. We realize this may be con- sidered a thankless and tedious bit of work, and it requires an excess of patience and good feeling.
 'The committee should be large enough in the larger chapters to have someon specially qualified always available, with out expecting any individual to serv, too many hours in a day or every daA in q week.
