was spent during the month Of August
by the Gulf Division of the American
Red Cross, according to a statement
made Saturday by Harry L. Hopkins,
director of Civilian Relief. Up to Aug
ust, 1919, a total of sl1462i76 had
been spent for this work in Alabama,
Louisiana and Mississippi. During
August, S12.264.25 was spent for the
same purpose in these states.
"This makes total" said Mr.. Hop
kins. of s126. 1910 expended fer the
relief OF families of soldiers in the Gulf
Division, of which sum a tenth was
spent during the month of August. she
reason for this is primarily the fact
that most able-bodied soldiers are dis
charged by this time and are fully able
20 take care of their families them
selves. Those who remain are to
large degree those who are still in the
hospitals and who can do nothing for
the persons dependent upon them.
"A very significant feature of this re-
port is the striking manner In which Il
emphasizes the need for the continue
ton of the Red Cross work even IN
times OF peace. Obviously. if we are
spending more for the relief OF soldiers
families in August-nearly year after
the ending Of the war-than we were
during the war itself, our work is far
from finished.
