Red Cross Fighting
First Aid Battle
To Conserve Life

Reliable records establish the fact
that more than $4,000 accidental
deaths occur every year in the United
States The records show that 206
American citizens are killed every
day that sS Of these deaths are due
TO automobiles. 35 to falls 19 to
arownings 16 to burns
Facing such distressing sacrifice OF
iife is the First Aid Service of the
American Red Cross. fighting through
education and demonstration to instin
a conciousncss of safety in the public
mind and teaching approved methods
which assure that competent hands
will care for injured persons until the
arrival of doctors. Trained service In
the first few minutes is vital in
serious accidents and saves manr
precious lives.
One of the most encouraging signs
of the past year is the record Of the
Red Cross First Aid Insurance Car
No. which travelled 300 miles along
--nt lines. stopping at 1877 places
The cars stan of surgeons gave 911
demonstrations TO audiences compos.
ed OF 42.150 railroad men. 1900 high
school and college students. 13 900 in.
dustrial workers, 1000 members OF
clubs. and nearly $4,000 policemen,
hremen. and other municipal EN-.
ployes. a total of 147.o00.
Red Cross First Aid certificates
we're conferred upon 1866 persons
who took the course last year an in
crease OF 1000 over 1923 Telephone,
gas and electric companies, public
service corporations and other large
employers OF the country adopted the
Red Cross course. and their team
contests everywhere were witnessed
by huge crowds with as much interest
as develops at popular athletic games
In the industrial field the growth OF
First Aid practice to fight to reduce
preventable accidents and unneces
sary loss of life has received Wild
recognition. The promise of an un
nrecendented advance fn this fine
cause lies in the evidence OF the greai
strides systematic Instruction in Firs
Aid has made throughout the countr'
through Tie Red Cross Chapters am
the the work of the experts in thi'
service under direction of the nations
organization.

RED CROSS IS URGING
BETTER HEALTH BATTLE
Tireless in Services Advancing
Cause of Freedom from
Human Suffering.

Not alone In preparedness for emor-
gencies, but IN a tireless offensive
battle for better health is the Ameri
can Red Cross nurse maintaining In
peace time the high tradition of her
war service. AS In war, the same
self-effacing service for humanity
goes on its quiet, effective way con-
tent in its accomplishments, seeking
no public acclaim. Enrolled in the
Red Cross Nursing Service are 1886
Of these missioness Of health, nearly
1090 carrying the message OF a finer
public health to Ms many communi-
ties and LOO teaching large classes in
home hygiene and care of the sick
Exactly 100 Red Cross nurses are still
on duty overseas. helping the struggle
forward toward the high standard Of
American nurse efficiency in many
countries.
In the Government services 3.117 en-
rolled Red Cross nurses are on duty
with the sArmy Navy. Public Health
Service and the Veterans Bureau.
while the entire active enrolment Is
maintained as a reserve for the Army
Nurse Corps and available to the
Navy in national defense emergency
Nine hundred nurses were added to
the roll the last year
Red Cross nursing, however. has
perhaps its finest expression out in
the places laid waste by fire. food and
storm. and in the back reaches far
from the centers Of population. In ev.
cry disaster the Red Cross nurse is
FIRST called for. first to respond. and
the last to leave her post of duty
among the suffering victims. In the
isolated sections of Alaska. North
Carolina. Virginia. Idaho, and among
the bleak islands Of Penobscott Bay.
Me-. her ministrations are making
hard lives easier and working for a
brishter future for the children. Her
part in the human drama of the time
IS increasingly important, although II
is subdued by the very nature of her
work
The policy of the American Red
Cross to establish under Chapter con
troll public health nursing services in
communities lacking such facilities has
been justified and this pioneering work
is everywhere endorsed by authori
ties who are quick to take it over as
proper municipal function and duty
of taxpayers. The Home Hygiene and
Care of the Sick program has further
penetrated into the schools as def
mite part of curriculums. During the
year $4,000 school pupils took this
Red Cross course. Three telephone
corporations adopted 1t and graduated
$50 employe students
As good health depends upon right
eating the Red Cross Nutrition Ser
vice continued to promote individual
End community health. particularly the
health of mothers and children. This
service reached nearly $50. 900 persons
during the year and found work to do
for several thousand Red Cross volun-
feer workers.

1. Exactly what do we mean by
the 'system'?" asked LaFollette. and
answering his own question, he said:
I'VE mean the combination which rules
the coal industry of this country and
consumer"
The fact is that in the bituminous
coal industry, which comprises 80 per
cent of all coal production, there is
no single corporation or group which
controls more than per cent of the
total output. Eight thousand inde-
pendent operators are in active COM
petition, half of them selling coal for
less than cost; bituminous prices are
lower today than in 1916. though
wages are 100 per cent above pre-war.
2. He said: I'VE mean the banking
combine which, through its control OF
the federal reserve board, arbitrarily
fixed interest rates and controls credit
IN the interest of the big monopoly sys-
TEN. 1t initiated four years ago pol
Icy of deflation, causing shrinkage
In farm prices since 1920
This deflation was inaugurated and
carried out under the Democratic ad-
ministration. Interest rates were at
once lowered when the Republican
administration came into office. Fur
thermore the Republican administra-
tion appointed a farmer on the federal
reserve board and created the inter-
mediate credit system for the fa4ner's
special benefit.
Mr.. LaFollette forgets that there
has been a steady increase in the
prices to the farmer, as well as an
increase in the purchasing power Of
his crops, ever since the Republican
administration reversed the policy Of
the Democratic administrator, which
placed the farmer in the economic
situation that he was In in 1921 and
later. This is shown by the following
index numbers of the average price
of agricultural products and the in
dex numbers of the purchasing power
of the products as published by the
Department of Agriculture:
Wholesale Prices for Farm Crops.
The Pleasantville press., 1924-10-25

g. Mr. LaFollette said: "The con-
sumption per capita of such staple
food as bread is very much less than
1t was "A few years ago. 1t
means that there are many people in
the United States today who are hun
cry for bread
Bread consumption has been de-
creasing in the United States in re-
cen, years, but Mr.. LaFollette dis
torts the reason. Every nation de-
creases its consumption of bread when
fruits, sugar and other palatable foods
demanded by a higher standard of
living. Senator LaFollette attempts
to conceal the increased consumption
of other agricultural products. Under
the low standards of living in Europe
the consumption of breadstuffs
amounts to 60 per cent of the total
diet as against 20 per cent In the
United States.
The following table shows the In
crease in consumption of foodstuffs
per capita in the United States in i'm
portant lines, compared with wheat:
Average Annual Consumption in
Pounds Per Person.

1923 30s.0 1868 1884 70.4 1913
L. He said: 'We mean the meat
packing combination, which fixes the
price of the products of the farm"
etc.
There are about 700 independent
competing packers in the United
States. Three of the big five to
whom Mr. LaFollette refers. have had
to entirely refinance their business
due TO enormous losses; and one is In
the hands of receiver. The FIVE
have earned less than per cent on
goods handled during the past four
years.
8. MIR. LaFollette said tariffs must
be reduced. He attacked the whole
Fordney bill and demanded all-around
reduction.
Take the tariff off dairy products
and you destroy that industry; take
the duty off wool and you destroy the
sheen industry; take the tariff off Cal
ifornia .ruits and nuts and the Amer
lean growers are at the mercy of the
Mediterranean growers And so on
down the list. Take the tariff of
manufactured goods and the American
workingman is at once in unrestrained
competition with the sweated labor
of Eurore.
Mr.. L~"ollette said
6. 1.-The farmer in this cou-sry re-
ceives an average of only 40 cents of
ne dollar paid by the city consumer
xer farm products while the farmer
Of Denmark receives an average of 80
