Washington, March Henry Il. Da-
v.son. chairman. today issued the fol-
lowing statement ON behalf VI the War
Council of the American Red Cross,
which was appointed by President Will
son May 10. 1917. and which ends
its existence tomorrow:
During the past nearly twenty one
months the American people have
given IN cash and supplies TO the
American Red Cross more than $500
100000. No value can he placed upon
the contributions OF service. which
have been given without stint and Of
tentimes at great sacrifice. by millions
OF our people. In this outpouring or
service the women Of America have
played signal part, wonderful in both
magnitude and spirit, Fully 5000, 900
American women have cxerted them
selves In Red Cross service, Into their
work they have put an amount OF love
and devotion that cannot be measured.
In speaking Of the efforts Of our women
through the Red Cross, General Per-
shing recently said to Mr.. Dawson:
These women of America deserve a
large share of the credit for the sue
sesses Of the American forces"
when we entered the war the Ameri-
can Red Cross had about 500, 900 MEM
bers. Today. as result Of the recent
Christmas membership roll call. there
are upwards OF 100000 full paid
members outside Of the Junior Red
Cross numbering perhaps 100000
school children.
"The Red Cross endeavor In France
has naturally been upon an exception
ally large scale. where service has
been rendered to the American army
and to the French army and the
French people as well. Hospital emer-
sency service for our army in France
has greatly diminished. but the RED
Cross is still being called upon FOR
service on n large scale in the great
base hospitals. where thousands OF
Americans sick and wounded arc still
receiving attention. Our army of DC,
cupation in Germany was followed
with medical units prepared to render
the same emergency aid and supply
service which was the primary ousi-
ness Of the Red Cross during hostlh-
ties. The army canteen service along
the lines of travel has actually in
creased since the armistice.
"As for the work among the FRENCH
people, now that hostilities have ceas-
ed, the French themselves naturally
prefer. as far as possible. to provide
for their own. 1t has accordingly peen
determined that the guiding principle
of Red Cross policy in France hence
forth shall be to have punctilious re-
gard to it's every responsibility, but 10
direct it's efforts primarily to assisting
French relief societies. The liberated
and devastated regions Of France have
been divided by the government into
small districts. each officially assigned
to a designated French relief organi-
cation. To these organizations the Red
Cross is contributing supplies and per-
sonnet. Where local organizations can
not Immediately assume their duties
the Red Cross is seeking to provide
relief for the sick and the helpless
whose necessities cannot wait.
THE American Red Cross work in
France was initiated by commission
of eighteen men who landed on French
shores June Is, 191, Since then some

Burlington, Feb. 2S.-Burlington will
have a long and varied list Of excur-
SION boats 90 which to disport this
sumner, judging from the usual spring
del elopments Of plans Of the steam
boat companies It was announced
yesterday thar another excursion boat
line would operate on the upper river
this summer and that the new and pa
latial excursion boat, Steamer Julia
Belle Swain would make frequent
stops at Burlington.
This steame- is owned by the La
Sale and Peoria Packet company,
which has been operating boats for
years on the Illinois river. 1t Is

Burlington and to take an excursion
out Of this city at least once in every
three weeks. The boat will operate as
far north as Davenport. II the trade

on the upper river by this company.
With the steamers Sidney, st. Paul
and the Quincy also to be converted
into an excursion boat, coupled with

enjoyment along that line.
