HOME SERVICE WORK
WILL BE CONTINUED

Home service work of the. Ameri-
can Red Cross, which has and is now
proving of such great value in Be-
midji, will continue not only through
the period of rehabilitation but also
as, peace time activity and will be
expanded in some communities to in
clude others besides the families of
soldiers and sailors. This has been
decided at national headquarters
after a recent conference of directors
of civilian relief work in the various
divisions and in response to urgent
requests which came from all over
the United States. This desire for
home service work to continue and
expand came particularly. from COM
munities where there are no other
organized agencies for social service.
In their plans for the future the
Red Cross officials are especially con-
cerned to see that the service to SOL
diers' and sailors families shall not
be impaired. They will adhere to the
present polity of giving help only
to those who ask for it and never go
ing where the offer of assistance is
unwelcome. There will De also q
scrupulous care to avoid duplicating
or interfering with the work which
is being done for social betterment
by any other agencies.
