Red Cross affairs are economically administered.
Every penny has been spent under an appro-

Membership dues pay the entire cost of opera

disaster relief and other work.

How Red Cross Is organized

The great secret Of Red Cross effectiveness is
organization. Millions of people working
together through the medium of an organized
machinery which co-ordinates the work of each
with the work of all, and transmits the vast
quantity Of finished products to the people who
need them. Thus benevolent emotion is turned
into practical aid.
The organization co-relates and directs the
work Of the chapters co-operates with the Army
and Navy in relief measures, supports relief work
abroad, recruits the personnel for overseas
vice and forwards to its agents in foreign lands
the relief supplies produced by the chapter work
ers or purchased in the market.
Red Cross administration in the United States
is decentralized. Red Cross is too vast to be
completely administered from one spot 1t would
disintegrate under its own weight
So the country is partitoned into thirteen
Divisions and there is fourteenth Division for
the territorial, insular and foreign chapters, with
National Headquarters as the co-ordinating
force. In each Division there is a manager and
his staff, to whom the chapter officials respon-
sble, and the chapter workers deal directly with
the Chapter Officers The organization is mill
tary in its well ordered effort, but quite non
military in its democratic equalties, for the chap
ter worker is quite as important as the National
Headquarters official The Red Cross is organ
lied for efficiency, not for display of authority.
Volunteer service
All of the Division Managers, and many of those
on their stats, volunteers. Unpaid service is
the general rule in chapters, divisions, and at
National Headquarters. Most of the depart
nent heads in Washington are volunteers.
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1918-05-13

with the military authorities, provide emergency
hospital and other supplies where needful, keep
the men in the hospital in touch with their fam
lies, and in many other ways add to the comfort
and morale of our men.

ton Of mutilated men and many other

Army and Navy. The Red Cross War Council
is endeavoring in every way to increase the
Of the whole program of relief by
the utmost cooperation with the Commission on
Training Camp Activities, the Y. NJ. c. A.
Knights of Columbus, Y. w. c. A., Y. NJ. FL. A.
and other great patriotic agencies.
