Various relief projects of the Junior
American Red Cross in European
countries resulted in helping 237, 00O
destitute children during the last ifs
cal year, according TO the annual re-
port of the American Red Cross for

ties of the Juniors abroad is mani
tested by a comparison which shows
this figure is 100000 larger than that
Of the previous fiscal year.
The National Children's Fund raised
by school children, members of the
Junior American Red Cross, was
drawn upon for $420,557 for these prof.
ects. Receipts for the National Chill
