RED CROSS NEEDED
AFTER WAR Is OVER
Organization Will Continue Work
of Relieving Distressed

Peace will bring renewed work for
the Red Cross, according to a state
ment issued yesterday.
Millions of American boys are still
under arms" says the Red Cross
statement. Thousands of them are
sick and wounded. Owing to short
age In shipping, it may take a year
to bring our boys home from France.
But, whatever the time. our protect
ing arm must be about them and
their families over the whole period
which must elapse before the normal
life OF peace can be resumed.
THE cessation OF war will reveal
picture Of misery such as the world
has meyer seen before, especially in
the many countries which can not
help themselves. The American peo-
pie will expect the Red Cross to con-
tfnue to act as their agent in repair
ing broken spirits and broken bodies.
Peace terms and peace conditions will
determine how we may best minis
ter to the vast stricken areas which
have been narrowed by war. and for
this great act OF mercy the heart and
spirit OF the American people must
continue TO be modified through the
American Red Cross.
'On behalf of the war council we
accordingly ask each member OF our
splendid body of workers throughout
the land TO bear in mind the solemn
obligation which rests upon each one
to carry on We can not abate one
instant in our efforts or in our spirits.
There will be abundance Of work to
do, and specific advices will be given.
but even ct the moment of peace let
no Red Cross worker falter.
our spirits must now call US to
show that not the roar Of cannon or
the blood Of our own alone directs our
activities. but that a great people
will continue to respond greatly and
freely to its obligations and oppoT-
tunity to serve
