THE RED CROSS AND THE DISABLED SOLDIER
AND SAILOR.

What is the Red Cross part in the big national pro
gram for the reconstruction of disabled soldiers anr
sailors? With large casualty lists reported daily and
many disabled returning from the European
fronts the question is being asked all sides by inter
ested Americans
a new Red Cross circular of instruction. entitled
Home Service and the Disabled Soldier and Sailor"
summarizes the Red Cross relationship to the rehabta
ton program follows:
/ To bring solidly behind the disabled man. at all
stages of the reconstruction process. the moral support
OF his family
?. To assist the men. through the competent legal
advice at the command of chapter Home Service Sec
tions, TO secure the benefits Of the War Risk Insurance
Law especially provisions for compensation and
insurance.
3. To urge upon disabled men the wisdom and neces.
sity of taking full advantage of the governments plans
for their and training.
4 To encourage them in the early and critical stages
of their vocational training and Of their employ
ment when the struggle to overcome the mental and
physical handicap is most acute.
To bring about a reasonable and sympathetic atti.
tude the part of employers which shall give every
handicapped real chance while avoiding the dan.

the attraction Of immediate temporary perhaps

6 To mold public opinion so that it viii frown upon
trivial and demorazing entertainment and heroworshp
and maintain constructive attitude which, while main
tanning square deal for the returned soldier shall expect
from him every reasonable effort to insure his self

is taken into consideration that the basis

But the American Red Cross with its great financial

And it will be noted from the above that the Red
