RED CROSS WILL DO THE JOB
pittsburgh Gazette-Times)

The open order given by the exc cu-
tive committee Of tho American Red
Cross to Chairman John Parton
Payne to take all essential measures
to meet the emergency that has aris-
en- in the Near East is impressive of
the magnitude of the need. An ap.
palling situation exists, we are con-
WINGED, and, as has become the prac-
tice, Europe leaves to the United
States the work of relief. Whatever
we may think of the causes of the
situation, however accurately respon
sibility may be placed in the public
mind for the helpless state of mil
lions of human beings, we shall not
be deferred from supplying as many
as possible with the necessaries of
life. And the chief factor in the dis
tribution will the American Red
Cross.
Chairman Payne has said "the
committees instructions to the chair
man were that the job be done, and
if it takes all our money it will he
spent. and if it takes more than we
have we will get it." The confident
tone of the Chairman is justified
by the quality of support the peo-
Pile have given the organization
in the past. People give money to
the Red Cross unhesitatingly, for
they know that it will be used in the
relief of human suffering not only,
but made to go farther than other
organizations could make it go.
In the>Near East the need is so
great that President Harding has
made a public appeal for contribu-
tons, the fund thus gathered to be
expended jointly by the Red Cross
and the Near East Relief. Millions
of dollars will be required for the
work, But there are millions of
Americans who have become accus-
toned to intrusting the administers
ton of their charity to the REQ
Cross. Confident that their response
will be generous is substantially
grounded in experience of the past
ard warrants the faith of the Presi-
dent in making his appeal and Of
Chairman Payne in preparing to ex'
pend all the money the great Gauss
may require even before it has beer
donated. The place which the Rec
Cross has made for itself in the hearts
Of the people is only less wonderful
than its stupendous labors for the re.
lief of suffering humanity. 1t is the
charity arm of the nation that never
will be suffered to grow weak.
