AMERICANS ABROAD
IN RED CROSS WORK
United States Citizens Far Away
Enthusiastic Members Of the
Fourteenth" Division.

Among the most enthusiastic and
energetic members Of the American
Red Cross are those citizens Of the
United States who live outside the
continental boundaries Of their country
sons and daughters OF the Stars and
Stripes residing at the far corners Of
the earth.
These people compose the InsulaF
and Foreign Division of the parent or
ganization, generally known as the
Fourteenth" Division, which has
Jurisdiction of all territory outside
the country proper; that is, Alaska,
Porto Rico, Hawaii, Virgin Islands, the
Philippines, Guam, and even the To-
land Of zap, which came under our
nag as a result of the world war. For
the year 1920 this division reported
30,80S paid up members. s--~--
The main object of this division'is
to give our citizens everywhere the 6p-
portunlfy to participate In the work
Of the organization which stands for
the best national ideals. Americans
In far places intensely loyal and pa
triotic, treasure their membership in
the Red Cross as the outward ex-
preston of their citizenship. 1t is an
other tie to the homeland and to
each other. There are chapters Of
this division in Argentine, Bolivia,
Brazil Canal zone, Chile, China. Costa
Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic,
Ecuador, England, France, Guam
Guatemala, Haiti, Hawaii, Honduras,
Japan, Manchuria, Netherlands, Mica
ragua, Paraguay, Peru, Philippines,
Porto Rico, Siberia, Spain, Sweden,
Switzerland, Syria, Turkey. Uruguay.
Venezuela and Virgin Islands.
During the war these scattered
members of the Red Cross contrib
uted millions In money, and millions
Of dollars worth of necessary articles
for the men in service, and sent many
doctors and nurses to France. At the
same time they carried on an excel
lent Home Service in their respective
communities for the families of those
who had gone to war, and In some re-
kons gave large sums of money and
Unreasonable personal service to the
relief Of disaster and disease victims.
The division is now establishing
service clubs In foreign ports for the
benefit of sailors In the American Mer-
chant Marine, making plans to aid
Americans in trouble in foreign lands
and completing arrangements for CIV
ing immediate adequate relief In case
of disaster.
1t is the Fourteenth Divisions part
in the great Peace Time program OF
the American Red Cross.
