The lassies, heartened by the coun.

waste effort in tambOurine solicita-

saved to actual slum work and general

American Red Cross Announces
Budget of S48,2eo,o00
For Current Year.
NEW DISASTER RELIEF PLAN
Continuance Of Heavy Work Abroad
Deemed Necessary to Protect
United States-s21 ,ooo, 600
Less Than Last Year.

program of relief and service to-
ward which appropriations of s4s.-
100000 have been made has been out
lined for the American Red Cross for
the fiscal year, July l, 1920, to July 1,
1921, according to official announce
ment by national headquarters of the
organization at Washington. The fig
ures for 192o-el are ssi, ee0,oee below
these of 19l8ao. ia which 500, 4eo,eoo
was spent. ......
Important among the items of the
budget for the present year is the APP
preparation of $S1, 800 900 for relief In
foreign lands, which includes s11, eoe,.
zoe In purchased supplies on hand and
net distributed.
Must Protect United States.
This will enable the American Red
Cross to continue its humanitarian ef-
fort to aid stricken peoples to re-estab-
lish themselves, to fight the disease epie
denies which threaten many countries
and to efface largely the remaining
traces Of the blight left by the World
War. 1t is regarded as social as well
az physical sanitation on q large scale
that will have a direct bearing on fu.
ture conditions in America.
Central Europe, the chief sufferer
from the conflict today is facing an
other winter Of famine, pestilence and
ruin. Typhus decreased much during
the summer months where last winter
II had its greatest stronghold but ply
sicians who investigated the situation
at the behest Of the League of Red
Cross Societies have given their I'M
qualified opinion that this coming win
ter will see a recurrence on an I'M
precedented scale. The Red Gross
feels It must continue preventive meas
ures abroad to keep this and other
deadly maladIes from the United
States.
Millions for Work at Home.
When the disease was sweeping Cen
trail Europe last winter the American
Red Gross, with the aid of the govern
ments Of afflicted nations. undertook the
fight against it. Hospitals were estab-
lished wherever possible and food and
clothing were distributed to the I'M
dernourished populations, who by rea-
sen Of their undernourishment were
easy prey to the epidemics. Where
dfsorganization contributed last year
to the great inroads made by the dis
ease, by virtue Of It's knowledge Of the
disease and the presence Of well es-
tablished hospital centers, the Ameri-
can Red Cross this year will undertake
the work with new confidence.
Including the total of $11, 600, 900 In
supplies left from the last fiscal year,
the $31, 100000 is $21. o0o, 900 less than
the expenditures for 1920
Appropriations for domestic activi-
ties total SIC, 100000.
The largest item Of this 'home"
budget is $7,S00oOo for civilian relief
work. This includes service and as

sistance for families OF soldiers. sail
ors and marines, and work incidental
to disaster. OF the total appropria-
ton for civilian relief, 100000 is
held in reserve for the carrying out of
actual disaster relief.
Reduced Overhead Expense.
The Red Cross Invariably is the first
thought Of community visited by ca
lamity. With this In mind, It was de-
termined by the Executive Committee
in preparing the budget of 1920 to
have fixed reserve fund from which
to draw In these instances
For assistance to soldiers, sailors
and marines In hospitals and In camps
this year S1,900,0O0 has been set aside.
Four million two hundred thousand
dollars has been appropriated for i'm.
provement of health and prevention
Of disease throughout the United
States during the current twelve
months. The Red Cross is co-operat-
ing fully with the United States Health
Service in this work and through its
Junior Red Cross Is doing much to
spread among children the principles
of sanitation. An appropriation of ST.
000,0 has been made for developing
the peace time program of the Red
Cross by service to it's chapters in all
regions.
The appropriation Of S4S,20O,OO0 is
exclusive of the local expenditures of
the 5000 or more chapters
Administration expenses this year
will be S1.S00,00o. Last year they
were $2,30O,OO0.
