will formulate supplementary hst
of the projects thus stricken from
the budget and submit them to the

PARIS, August 29.-Charges made
at the Geneva congress Of the Inter-
Red Cross seeks by it's financial
weight to dominate Red Cross work
throughout the world have caused a
breach which the American delegates
say cannot be healed until the charges
are Withdrawn.
The charges are contained in re-
port on the negotiations for a fusion
of the International Red Cross and
the League of Red Cross Societies.
portion Of which reads:
"The International Red Cross COM
mittee does not believe that in the do
main of Red Cross work supremacy
of influence must belong to those who
are most powerful financially. Money,
which permits creation of function
aries is certainly useful, but It must
not give them the impression that
they are the masters of an tnstitu-
ton such as the International Red
Cross"
Send Letter Of Protest.

lean delegation to the Geneva meet

port of the international committee
cannot fail to challenge the anx-
ious consideration Of all who have
the welfare of the Red Cross at
heart"
Want Charges withdrawn.
I'VE have been reluctant" the let
ter continued. Ito interpret the re-
port as including any intentional at
tack upon the American Red Cross.
Nevertheless, inquiry among repre-
sentatfves of the other societies
leaves no doubt of it's being gener-
ally SO regarded. and 1t is hardly
open to any other construction. We
are, therefore. forced to conclude
that the international COM
mittee has by insinuation and in
nucndo, as well as by direct state
ment. made grave reflection upon the
motives of the national institution

The letter concludes by resembling
the American acceptance of the in.
vitation to participate in the Geneva
