RED CROSS RECEIVES
CALLS FOR FLU AID
WARNS AGAINST PEOPLE eECOM.
ING ALARMED OVER lNFLU.
ENZA SITUATION.

ATLANTA. Ga, Feb. 12.-Reports
received at the Southern division
headquarters OF the American Red
Cross show that influenza in the
southeast at no time this winter has
reached the point where it could prop
erly be termed an epidemic and that.
with precautions there is no reason
why the FIVE states in the southern
division cannot go through the win
ter without an epidemic.
In making public its reports, the
Red Cross warned the public against
groundless fears. 1t was stated that,
If individuals win eat properly, drink
plenty of water, keep away from
stuffy halls and crowds. get plenty Of
sleep, doctor colds promptly, and,
above all, refuse to get panicky, they
should escape influenza.
While the Red Cross has been call
ed upon more than usual in the last
month to assist in combating infiu-
enZa in the division, ii is stated that
the calls do not begin to approach the
number received at this time a year
ago Thus far, the request for nurs
es have come from only two states
North and South Carolina-and in
these states the requests have been
confined to a few localities. Fifteen
nurses altogether have been sent out,
as many as six of these to one county
and as many as four to another. A
few cases of influenza have been re-
ported in Georgia, Tennessee and
Florida, but the reports show that
the number, save in a few instances,
is not more than normal.
Several Florida communities have
taken the precaution to close their
schools temporarily, while in Mem
phis and one or two other places in
Tennessee public meetings have been
banned for time. The state board
of health of South Carolina, which re-
quested division headquarters for
nurses, reported influenza in seven
teen counties ON Jan. 80.
Even should the Influenza situation
get great deal worse than it is, the
Red Cross states that the people OF
the southeast are much better able to
handle the situation than ever be-
fore. As long ago as last October, Red
Cross chapters throughout the divi-
sion, which acted on suggestions from
division headquarters, prepared them
selves TO meet influenza by assem-
bling such resources as physicians.
nurses and volunteers: listing hospit-
al facilities, equipment and supplies.
AS result. Red Cross chapters in
communities where influenza has oc-
CURED already have been instrument.
al in checking its spread and many
have contributed TO the help of sister
communities.
The most encouraging feature of the
Red Cross report is the statement that
practically all cases reported are
mild form of influenza and that so
far as has been learned, there are
very few deaths compared to the mum.
