PRESIDENT HARDING CALLS UPON
NATION TO SUPPORT RED CROSS
ROLL CALL STARTING TOMORROW

are in pressing need. not only of
governmental attention and assist
ance, but also of those supplement
tary acts of human kindness which
only volunteer mercy can supply.
By systematic and scientic plans
and equipment for relief from dis
many urgent calls throughout the
past year, the American Red Cross
has fulfilled another requirement
of its congressional charter ito con-
tinue and carry on a system OF ma
tional and international relief in
time of peace and to apply the same
in mitigating the sufferings caused
by pestilence, famine, fire, floods
and other great national calami-
ties"
After liquidating its obligations
of general relief to peoples of 9TH
er lands who were associated with
US in the great war, it has concen-
trated its foreign efforts on a pro-
gram for the medical relief of chill
dren in Central Europe, and, from
funds made available last year. it
continues this work of mercy, and
also contributes from its medical
and hospital supplies for the work
of relief in Russia which Is operat-
ed under American direction
AS a result of vast and varied
experience during the World war,
| the American Red Cross has devised
and put in operation an extensive
domestic health and welfare pro-
gram whereby our American COM
munities are instructed and direct
, ed in the solution of those COM
munity problems upon which the
public will ultimately rest.
1t is a fundamental principle OF
the Red Cross not to duplicate but
to supplement the efforts of gov
ernmental and other agencies IN
the mitigation and alienation OF
human suffering, and to supply the
means thereto where other
agencies do not exist The call OF
/ the American Red Cross is the call
of the country and humanity. and
earnestly urge my fellow citizens
to make that response which salts
fies the promptings of generous
people. (SlgnedD

Washington, Nov. 1o.-The fol-

night:
To the American People: AS

giving day, Nov. "a, and 1 designate

recommend ministers and
priests of all congregations to
stress the gospel of service on Nov.
ID, and / invite and urge my fell
low citizens to accept the entire per-
iod of the roll call as an occasion
for rededication of themselves to
the principles and practice of ser
vice. The American Red Cross is
both the volunteer and semi-of1cial
medium through which our people
may appropriately express their
patriotic and humane desires to
render practical assistance to their
soldiers and sailors, to their fellow
citizens in civilian life, and to those
peoples of other lands who have a
human claim on the sympathetic
concern of our own people.
Has Kept the Faith.
The American Red Cross has kept
faith with the principles which
gave it birth and with the obliga-
tons laid upon it by congressional
charter, "to act in matters of vol
untary relief and in accord with
the military and naval authorities
as a medium of communication be-
tween the people of the United
States and their army and navy
