NATIONAL HEALTH AIM
OF RED CROSS PROGRAM
Nurses Guard Community
Health; Home Hygiene and
Nutrition Featured.

The increasing appreciation by the
American people of the value of a ma
tional health structure is reflected in
the comprehensive machinery built up
by the American Red Cross and kept
in constant operation in the past year.
In the interest of national health.
instruction in home hygiene and
care of the sick, in nutrition; inspec-
ton of school children, the mainte-
nance of an effective nursing service,
all formed a part of the Red Cross or
ganization assisting in keeping Amer
lea well.
Altogether 51,121 students were in
structed in home hygiene and care OF
the sick, including 31,430 school stu
dents, of whom 2O,3S1 received GER
tificates. This work reached the Girl
Scouts, Camp Fire Girls and Girl Re
serves; also telephone companies.
public and private schools, commu-
nifty and industrial groups. An I'M
usual fact of this service was its adap-
ton to the needs of the blind, through
transcription Of the text book in
Braille print.
The years work also demonstrated
growing understanding and appre-
citation on the part of Red Cross field
representatives chapters, cooperating
agencies and others, of the place OF
nutrition in community programs,
looking to community health.
There were $500 dietitians enrolled
during the year; regular nutrition in
gtruction reached 138,065 children;
20, 1859 adults attended nutrition meet
ings, while 1885 schools were aided
in furnishing lunches.
Cooperative relationships were es-
tablished with various Government
and educational agencies in making
this branch of the Red Cross health
work more effective.
Another of the health-promoting &C
tivities of the Red Cross lies in its
public health nursing service. There
are nearly 1000 such nurses serving
in every part of the country.
AS an invaluable reservoir in time
of a great national emergency, there
is enrolled under the Red Cross ban
ner reserve of 42,002 nurses. In
number of disasters during the past
year in which the Red Cross has
aided, and where the services OF the
nurses were required, they have been
among the first to mobilize.
At Lorain, o., last year "a enrolled
Red Cross nurses were engaged in re-
lief work, while 124 were employed in
the midwest tornado disaster relief
operation Of this year. The work Of
Mrs. Dorothy Davis Sleichter, Red
Cross public health nurse stationed at
Fairbanks, Alaska, in checking q flu
epidemic at Fort Yukon, in the Arctic,
has won praise from all who knew
Of it.
It is to assist in maintaining such
valuable services to the community
that the American Red Cross invites
members during its ninth annual roll
call, November IL to 26, the only such
appeal which the Red Cross makes in
the year.

OF RED ARRESTS
Hawaiian Papers Under
Strict Censorship


HONOLULU, Hawaii, April 22.-
Proof that the war department sup
pressed for many days the news Of
the arrest of seven Communist SOL
diers at sehofieId Barracks, near here,
has just been furnished.
Altho the seven Communists were
arrested on February 19, the news Of
the arrests was not printed in the
Honolulu papers until April 8, Even
then, the news was incomplete.
The Honolulu Star Bulletin, on
April 3, in a story under the head
line, Five Soldiers Implicated in Al
legged Plot" declared: "Notwithstand-
ing the fact that courts martial are
public trials, the NEWSPAPERS were Civ
en- no notification of this, trial until it
closed. The first news published was
sent out from the intelligence office
at Schofield late Friday afternoon, al
tho Private Crouch was sentenced to
forty years in prison.
This news failed to state that
others had been implicated and that
the trial of second man was to be-
gin Monday. Strong objection was
raised today to the publication by the
Star Bulletin of the latter"
When this dispatch was published,
the secret trial of Walter. Trumbull
had already been going on two days,
and all news Of the trial was sup
pressed.
The report goes on to state, "The
charges, against Private Crouch were
filed March 10. His trial started
Monday or Tuesday of this week and
ended Thursday, officials of the army
intelligence office declaring that they
did not pay much attention to it af-
ter completing their part Of the
work."
The above paragraph was in bold
faced type. The newspapers did not
then know that Crouch, Trumbull.
Nadeau, Creque, Ebert, Schwartz and
Domagalski were arrested on Febru-
airy 10, and held incommunicado since
that date.
The Star Bulletin further complains,
The arrest of the enlisted men al
legged to be implicated in the plot. the
filing of the charges against them.

crecy by officials of the army intel
ligence corps at Schofield. who have

the entire question Of workers edu-
cation. What is workers education ?
It is self-evident that workers are
compelled to organize for their own
education because the educational
forces of the present system are be-
ing perverted and prostituted to mis-
represent the facts of our social life;
to instil in workers consciousness
Of the permanency and superiority of
