The proclamation. prepared before the
President departed for Europe, fol.
lows:
TO the American people: One year
ago 22.000.000 Americans, by enrolling
as members OF the Red Cross at
Christmas time. sent TO the men who
were fighting our battles overseas
stimulating message OF cheer and
good will They made II clear that
our people were OF their own free
choice united with their government
in the determination not only to wage
war with the instruments OF destruc-
ton, but also by every means In their
power to repay the rayages OF the In.
sader and sustain and renew the
spirit OF the army and OF the homes
which they represented.
THE friends OF the American Red
Cross In Italy, Belgium and France
have told and will tell again the story
OF how the Red Cross workers re-
stored morale in the hospitals. In the
camps and al the cantonments, and
we ought TO be very proud that we
have been permitted to be OF service
to those whose sufferings and whose
glory are the heritage OF humanity.
Now. by Gods grace. the Red Cross
Christmas message OF 1918 ia to be a
message OF peace as well as a mes.
sage OF good will. But peace does not
mean that we can fold our hands. It
means further sacrifice. We must
prove eonclusively to an attentive
world that America is permanently
aroused to the needs OF the new era,
our old indifference gone forever.
THE exact nature OF the future
service OF the Red Cross will depend
upon the program Of the associated
governments, but there is immediate
need today for every heartening word
and every helpful service. We must
not forget that our soldiers and our
sailors are still under orders and still
have duties to perform OF the highest
consequence and that the Red Cross
Christmas membership means . great
| ieal to them.
The people OF the saddened lands.
moreover, returning home today where
there are no homes, must have the as
sistance that the hearts OF our people
are with them In the dark and doubt
tul days ahead. Let us, so far ~ we
can. help them back to faith in mercy
and in future happiness.
AS president OF the Red Cross. con.
scious In this great hour OF the value
Of such a message from the American
people, should be glad il every
American would Join the Red Cross
for 1919, and thus send forth to the
whole human family the Christmas
greeting for which II waits and for
which II stands In greatest need.
