AMERICAN RED CROSS
GIVES SWISS $125y 900
Money to Be Used for War Aid
Among People and Soldiers and
for Other Relief Work.

The war council Of the American
Red Cross has appropriated $125.00o
as q contribution to the Swiss Red
Cross for activities incident to the
war.
The money donated by the Ameri-
can Red Cross, 1t is understood. will
be used for relief work among the
people and soldiers Of Switzerland.
and for the relief Of allied troops and
civilians in transit from Germany and
Austria.
The Red Cross idea had its birth
place in Switzerland. it is pointed out,
but there are substantial reasons, In
addition to the sentimental ones, for
extending aid to the Swiss society, as
indicated.
In rendering service during the
present war Swiss doctors have made
heavy personal sacrifices, going to
Germany and Austria to pass upon al
lied prisoners for repatriation. and
may be called upon to render similar
service for American prisoners. The
continued mobilization Of the Swiss
army for the purpose Of preserving
neutrality has placed exceedingly
heavy burdens upon the population.
Thousands of allied nationals are be-
ing cared for by the Swiss people.
