Membership in the Life Saving
Corps has steadily increased. On
January 81, 1925. 1886 men,
1881 women, and 32,803 Juniors
scattered over the nation were
wearing the life saving emblem of
the American National Red Cross
and were actively concerned for
the safety of the public in the
water. Many of these members
and examiners of the corps have
performed excellent voluntary
service of definite nature, such
as promoting and teaching classes
in swimming and life saving and
actually guarding the safety of
bathers by beach patrols. Through
the Red Cross First Aid and Life
Saving Committee of Awards,
Honorable Service Medals were
given in 1928 and 1924 to 214
members who had rendered 200 or
more hours of service. Also in
1924, SO individuals who had al
ready been members of the corps
for the two preceding years, were
presented with Service Bars.
Rescue Bars were awarded to 10
members for meritorious rescues
performed at the risk of their own
lives, and honorable mention
made for the year 1924 of many
more members for such rescues.
The maintenance and develop
ment of the Red Cross Life Saw.
ing Corps is a distinctively pre-
ventive service, the very opposite
of the all-too-common method of
waiting until disaster comes and
then attempting to avoid repeti-
tion of it. The corps itself is a
highly practical expression of the
Red Cross ideal and charter au-I
thorization from congress that the
society in time of peace and tran
guilty should train its members
to render humanitarian service in
time of emergency and stress.
Every year an appalling number
of drownings occur and exact a.
heavy toll of lives from the ma
ton. The suffering brought into
thousands of homes by the annual
drownings loss is too poignant,
and the waste Of life too obvious,
to be attended by indifference on
the part of the American public,
once it's attention is called to these
facts.
Accordingly, the future of the
Life Saving Corps is bright with
promise. The Red Cross looks
hopefully to the day when every
unprotected waterfront will have
it's Life Saving Corps Of members
expertly. trained in rescuing and
resuscitating those in peril in the
water, so that the pleasurable and
health-giving water sports may be
made safe and possible for all.
The cooperation of every SWIM
mer and every qualified Red Cross
Life Saver in Key West is solicited
in carrying this service to the
swimming public.
Any one wishing to join the
classes now under instruction at
the Navy Yard and La Brisa will
get in touch with your local Red
Cross.

AMERICAN RED CROSS
LIFE SAVING SERVICE


Within the past few years and
with amazing rapidity, the pools,
rivers, lakes and ocean beaches of
the nations have become the play
grounds of the people. With this
Increased participation in water
sports, it is vitality necessary that
che general public recognize the
dangers involved in swimming,
canoeing and similar sports. If
safety for all is to be a reality,
into the consciousness and habits
ofseyery man and woman, boy and
girl, must be instilled code of
safe conduct in the water.
The various ways by which a
person in peril of drowning may
DE rescued and the methods of in
siucing artificial respiration to re-
siye a person apparently drowned
are known as Life Saving. Out
iof the request of two national as
sociations has been developed the
extensive efforts which the Am
erican Red Gross now carries on
an this field of water first aid. !"
In 1911 Colonel Charles Lynch,
puthor of the Red Cross text book,
First Aid to the Injured" was
asked by the Boy Scouts of Am
erica to collaborate with COM
modore w. E. Longfellow, then di-
bector of the Life Saving Depart
snent of the City of New York, in
lhe chapter on First Aid on land
for the Boy Scout Handbook. Fol-
lowing this collaboration, Colonel
lynch was much impressed by the
possibilities for Red Cross develop
inent of an educational program
in Water First Aid'' and some
snonths later the international
COMMITTEE of the Young Mems
christian Association and the Boy
Scouts of America asked the Red
Cross to give national leadership
10 this phase of aquatics for the
promotion of Water Safety. And
IN IDA the American Red Cross
Life Saving Corps was formed.
The aims of the Red Cross Life
Saving Corps are to endeavor I'd
eliminate the preventable loss OF
life caused by drowning by cor
relating and disseminating infor-
nation on water safety; by de-
vising systems of protection, pre-
vention, rescue and resuscitation;
by organizing local Life Saving
Corps charged with definite patrol
and instruction service; and by
giving leadership to cooperating
organizations having facilities for
carrying on the instruction in
water safety methods.
Since these early beginnings
and during its eleven years of ex-
istence the Red Cross Life Saving
Corps has developed soundly and
steadily. Principles Of prevention
Of accidents in the water have
been devised and systems of pro-
lection for bathers standardized.
A complete manual containing in-
formation on Water Safety has
been published and can be obtain
ed from the local Red Cross office
upon request. The test for mem-
bership has been strengthened,
and methods Of life saving have
been developed to the highest pos

Chicago, March 7.-(AP)-While
city officials and reform organiza-

the seriousness of crimes in Chicago,
detective squads went tonight into
the Italian gangland district to try
to prevent a fresh outburst of gun
play.
The detectives were sent into the
district to do patrol duty after the
police decided that shooting yes

and two others wounded had been a
mistake on the part of the assallants
and that the bullets were really in

The police also were attempting to
today to solve the mystery surround

The authorities resorted to whole

robbers who on Friday invaded Of

held, none had been identified.

Nj. BRAND LOath
To Make Another !
Effort for Cabinet

Geneva, March 7.-(AP)-French
circles close to NJ. BRAND depicted
him today as disinclined' to accept any
offer to form a new cabinet or accept
the portfolio of foreign minister In a
new combination, so keenly did he in
terpret the chambers refusal of con-
ffdence as personal slight to his ca
pacity as statesman to conduct af-
fairs In the present difficult situation
in his country.
NJ. BRAND was described by friends
as especially annoyed at what he re-
garded as a coalition in the chamber
of representatives of high commercial
interests as a means of securing a re-
lection of taxes urgently needed to
balance the budget and restore the
franc. These friends labored with him
begging him not to lose patience and
beseeching him to continue the strug-
gle for the internal rehabilitation of
France, thus experimenting his pre-
vious victorious foreign policy by con-
tributing to domestic progress.
This counsel. coupled with failure
to reach an accord with the German
statesmen over the league council iss
sue, apparently had it's effect and
aroused NJ. Brands fighting spirit TO
continue onward both in France and
at Geneva.
When M. BRAND left for Paris to-
night, however, his adherents freely
predicted that he would not refuse
any offer of President Doumergue and
at least would participate in the new
government.
