DIRECTS ACTIVITIES
TO RURAL DISTRICTS

There are 3.7o0 home service sec
tons now operating under the Red
Cross organization In the United
States. OF these 1900 are In places
having a population under 5000. 1t
follows. therefore. that plans for the
~extension OF home service activities
under the Red Cross ~peace-time pro-
gram must have special reference to
the conditions affecting the rural
population.
1t has been found that schemes for
hetterrnent which do very well for he
cities do not work out at all ad-
v~antageously when applied to the
country, and that workers of good
intentions. but with the urban point
Of View, make more or less of a mess
OF things when they try to operate
outside of their original stamping
ground.
With these facts In mind, the Blu
reau of Rural Organization has been
created in the Red Cross department
OF civilian relief, anc Prof. r. l.. Nor
gan. Of the faculty OF the Massa-
chusetts College OF Agriculture, has
been appointed director.
The Red Cross does not assume
that ii can render all the service a
community will need says Prof.
Morgan, III does assume, however,
that in doing it's own work 1t should
munity TO see the possibility of a
long term plan on as broad a scale as
possible. Every Red Cross worker
Will be informed as to where the com
Hlunity can get help in other than
Red Cross work, and will consider 1t
part OF his duty TO nne the COM
munity with those sources OF help"
