AT WORK IN EUROPE
Red Cross Establishing Child
Welfare Units.

Washington, d. c., July 3i.--
Concentrating its resources and
energies overseas upon the rescue
OF children from the menace Of dis
ease and death which is their heri
tage from war, the. American Red
Cross is now engaged in establish
ing chain of child welfare units
in the most needy areas. Ten
million dollars has been made
available for this imperative relief
work and according to report
Just received at national headquar
ters ninety such medical units
already are in operation. The
average personnel Of these units is
one doctor, two nurses and field
worker. The countries in which
this work will be carried on over
period of at least year are Poland,
the Baltic States, Austria, Hungary
and the Balkans.
Several million European child
rem are still in urgent need Of care,
Poland alone has 500, 900 war
orphans and as many again who
need clothing and medical atten-
ton. Austria Hungary adds a
million more to the list while the
little country of Montenegro has
20, 900. Children starved consis-
tently for several years are shrun-
ken in Stature, malformed and
harborers of tuberculosis and all
sorts of skin diseases. A distress
ingly large percentage OF Polish
children are tuberculous.
In the Balkans where personal
hygiene has been SO seldom prac-
ticed and public hygiene so little
understood there is the menace OF
tuberculosis, malaria, hook-worm,
and many other preventablc
diseases. General public health
cannot be lost sight of for it is use
less to cure the child and send ii
back to the same bed of Injection.
1t is in support OF the work @ot
the medical units that Red Cross
chapters here at home are engaged
in producing or collecting 2,ooo,-
600 children's garments and 25o,-
600 layettes, all observers agree
ing that the problem Of adequate
clothing will be greater in Europe
next winter than at any time since
1914. In this work the American
Friends Service committee
(Quakers) are cooperating.
