Men and women from the war torn
areas pictured again the agonized SUI

the duty Americans still owe the men
who gave their all for their country,
and the duty still untulllled 10 those
who still live to tell of their expert

To those who might have believed
that the job is finished the meeting
Yesterday would have been "a revela-
ton. The work of caring for the
manned and their dependents, admin

effects of wounds and disease, the

the devastated regions, as well as TAX
ing up other burdens of mercy which
fall to the lot of the Red Cross was
pictured il TIE unmistakable terms.
