Our Government is now under

If I were in executive position with
them, I would deport some mem
bers of this conference. Europe has
sent men here who are interested
solely in promoting discomfort and
tanning the flames of violence.
We've got enough domestic troubles
of our own, with the steel strike

RUSSIA TO GET
LAST RED CROSS
AFTER-WAR AID
Units Ready to Enter Petro-
grad as Soon as City Falls
to Anti-Bolshevists

Bucharest, Rumania, Sept. 22. via
Paris, Nov. 4.-The last scene of the
great relief work done in Europe by
America since the close of the war,
and one that may prove the great
est yet undertaken by the Ameri-
can Red Cross, will probably be
staged in Russia, said Colonel Robt.
e. Olds, European Commissioner of
the Red Cross, during an address
here to Red Cross personnel de-
parting for America.
"The Red Cross has still another
and final task before it," said Col
onel Olds, zone which may prove
greater than all that we have done
before. The great Bolshevik move
ment seems to be nearing its end
and when the time comes when
Russia shall have q firm, stable
government then 1t will be the duty
of the american Red Cross to bring
Russia's starving and sick hack to
health and happiness. And we must
continue in this until Russia can
care for herself. That, probably,
will be the last great after-war
campaign of the American Red
Cross in Europe.
I'VE are there already. At the
present moment, the Red Cross has
units in that section bordering on
the Gulf of Finland ready to enter
Petrograd. In Siberia there Is a
unit with Kolchak's army and one
in the Caucasus with the army of
General Denikine. When the power
of the Bolsheviki crumbles the hand
of the Red Cross will be the first to
help the struggling Russian nation
to its feet"
