Answering the Question that a
often been asked. why the factories
are not given this work in order TO
give employment to the unemployed;
the present plan is to give the more
difficult garments, such as boys suits
and girls dresses and mems shirts,
which requires much more time IN
making, to the factories. At the pres
ent time, however, the factories are
not able to take on very much of this
work.
We are also asking the Juniors TO
volunteer their service where posi-

Z CROSS NOTES.


Because Of the fact that certain
production activities have been dis
continued some OF the workers have
inferred that the need for Red Cross
service in sewing and knitting is over.
This is not the case, however, and
one OF the important future activi-
ties OF the American Red Cross Is the
production of refugee garments, both
knitted and sew j. The Red Cross
commissioners in Europe report that
thousands upon thousands of men, wo-
men and children are actually suffer-
ing from the lack of clothingi and the
conditions are such that while the hed
Cross is planning to send much of the
material that they have on hand 10
be made up later by the women OF
Europe, at the present time II is nee
essary to send many garments al
ready made up.
The chapters have recently been
sent a production order for knitted
garments, and we have a request from
Washington to produce as many gar
ments of the simpler types as tht
chapters are able to produce before
June LIST. Many of the chapters o.
the division are ready and willing tt
continue the production Of garments
and since we have a large stock o
material on hand, we are asking al
the workers In the division to con
centrate their energies for the mex
two months in helping the women 0
Europe to furnish garments to cloth
themselves and the great number o
children who have been left homeless
and fatherless. The women as wei
as the men will be busy in work tina
is very essential at the present tim
in getting the fields ready for tn
crops and in rebuilding their homes
We are asked to make only the sim
pier garments. such as women's an
children's chemise, women's skirts
