.O'RYAN To RUN
RED CROSS DRIVE
In Charge of New Jersey, New
York and Connecticut

Major General John r. Organ, who
will direct the Third Red Cross Roll
Call in the States Of New York, New
Jersey and Connecticut. has completed
campaign organizations in several ci-
ties in the territory of the Atlantic Dr.
vision, according to an announcement
today at Division Campaign Head
quarters. A East Twenty-third street.
The campaign will begin November
2 and continue through November IL,
|Armistice Day. The object of the cam
paign is to enroll 100000 members
in the Atlantic Division and a mini
mum of 20,000,000 for the country.
General Organ has begun the task
of recruiting volunteer workers and
the results achieved SO far In build
ing up Chapter, Branch and Auxiliary
campaign organizations promise sue
cess for the roll call.
Genera O'Ryan as an organizer ell
icited the praise Of the British army
officers with whom he worked. 1t is
that same genius. for organization
that is now shaping the Red Cross
workers in three states into an army
OF $780, 600 volunteer workers for the
ten days effort.
Instead of battalions of Infantry,
artillery, ammunition trains and ali
the other impediments of war General
ORyan's mind these days Is filled with
statistics and information on member
ship buttons. campaign posters, motor
corps. motion pictures. street decora-
tons and other campaign details. In
the management of the campaign Gen.
eral Organ will be assisted by Cap
tain Stephen N. Bobo, who was Red
Cross representative with the Twenty
Seventh.
The fundamental plan upon which
all of the detail work is being based
is the campaign organization which
has been divided into three depart
ments. for the neighborhood. the bust
ness section of the cities and the fac
tory section and in turn each section
will be divided into districts each OF
which will be thoroughly covered by
a team headed by a captain.
The plans for street and window
decorations for the Roll Call are COM
pleted. Six posters have been decided
on. and a series of window displays
and cut outs arranged, together with
the devices for automobiles to be for
warded to the chapters and branches
as the time approaches for the OPEN
ing of the campaign. These, together
with appeals to go through the mails,
mass meetings and motion pictures
will help focus public attention on
the efforts of the Red Cross to enroll
a large membership.

Shutting Americans DistastcfuI.

CoblenZ, March 6.-An German
OIL 'ers and men on duty in the zone
occupied by American troops must
wear uniforms when they appear in
the street, according to an order ef-
fective Thursday issued by General
Dickman to-day.
The order is result OF tendency
on the part Of certain German senior
officers to wear civilian clothes be-
cause Of their dislike to being com
relled to obey general order issued
sometime ago to salute all American
officers. The Germans claimed It
vas very distasteful for German
officers Of rank to have to salute
American lieutentants.
In framing the order, Gen. Dick
man took into consideration reports
that the Germans we're taking ad-
vantage Of their position in being
able to appear in uniform or in
civilian clothes at will. The new
order also calls for a weekly registra-
ton Of each German officer and SOL
dier on duty in this area. There
are several hundred Of them attached
to various missions and also acting
IA disbursement agents and in medi-
cal units caring for wounded Ger
man soldiers.
