EXPECT ENROLMENT

Represe sentative Of National Or.
9anization Confident Of
State Drive

North Dakota will without q doubt,
maintain its place as second In the
western area in Red Cross enrolment
according to per capita population,
Roy Wingate, representative Of the
National Red Cross in North Dakota
said here Monday.
The western area includes the states
Of Illinois on the east, Montana on the
west and extends to the Mexican
border and Gulf Of Mexico. Montana
has held first place, with North Da-
kota second for the years 1891 and
1892. The roll call will start on
Armistice Day and will close Novem-
Der 80.
Red Cross enrolment in North Da-
kota will be larger than last year.
according to present indications. VIM
gate said. Distribution of clothing
end cotton cloth in the state in re-
cent months and wider acquaintance
with the work of the organization
is responsible for the increased in
terest In Red Cross work. he said.
Since the government has taken
over direct relief work the Red Cross
is attending only to emergency relief
work and other duties which 1t is
normally presumed to handle, said
Wingate.
According to the charter granted
to the Red Cross by congress 1t must
take care of relief work In case OF
disasters and must take care Of relief
Of ex-soldiers and their families. All
other work is incidental to these du-
ties" said Wingate. AT present we
find that large part of our work Il
taken up with relief Of ex-soldiers due
to their being cut off the pension
rolls by the last session Of congress
Many OF these cases are deserving and
we are forced to look after them be-
fore we can do anything else.
Legion Is Helping
IN North Dakota our work has
been made much easier due to the
splendid cooperation we have re-
ceiyed from the American Legion
both from the state officers and from
the local posts. If it were not for
their assistance the Red Cross would
need at least two more men In the
state to handle the ex-service mems
problems alone"
Five additional Red Cross chapters
have hired public health nurses, he
said. The counties where this service
has recently been installed are Nc
Kenzie, Pierce, Sheridan, Towner ant
Wells. Four other counties Pembina
Grand Forks. Richland and Steele
have had public health nurses fol
some time.
Life saving work will be stressed
next spring in North Dakota Win

dams constructed this year there vii

Of swimming pools in the state ane
a corresponding increase in the mum

service and by next wear the mum.
