ExpIoins Red Cross
Policy in War Relief

WASHINGTON, D. chairman
Norman H. Davis. in answer to var
ious inquiries as to the present pol
icy and activities of the American
Red Cross in respect to European
war relief, today issued the follow
| ing statement:
1T is the policy of the American
Red Cross to extend relief where
it is most urgently needed, provid-
ing it has the necessary freedom of
action and safeguards for carrying
out the distribution of its supplies
to the actual victims, whether refu-
gees or war wounded soldiers.
AT present there are three dis
tinct areas where such need exists
and where assistance has been re-
quested: First, Great Britain; sec
ond the unoccupied portion of
France; and third, those territories
under German occupation.
With regard to the first we have
set up an American Red Cross COM
mittee in England and are sending
medical and hospital equipment,
clothing and other supplies, includ-
ing food, as rapidly as tonnage is
available.
With regard to the unoccupied
portion of France the S. S. McKees-
port loaded with all sorts of sup
plies and enjoying safe conduct from
the British blockade authorities is
now headed for Marseilles where
its cargo will be distributed to the
millions OF refugees and war wound
ed in southern France under the di-
rection of American Red Cross rep
resentatives. In addition, a train
load of children's food is now en-
route to the same region from
Geneva.
| With regard to the third area
namely occupied territory, we have
been extending aid in Poland with
funds contributed for that specific
purpose. This program is under
American Red Cross supervision,
thus safeguarding control over the
ultimate destination of supplies. As
| for other occupied territories, aid
to the sick and wounded and to
refugees, particularly children, is
being extended only in Paris and
vicinity under the direction OF
Wayne Chatfield Taylor, American
Red Cross delegate working in CO.
operation with the American hospi-
tai and French Red Cross.
Beyond this limited activity the
American Red Gross is no extend
ing any relief in the occupied por-
tons of France There are certain
questions of policy and inherent diff.
ficulties such as blockade trans.
portation. delivery and control o.

time are most difficult of solution

o Q Q
Where is it wise to cut costs in your
new home and where is it wise to buy
the best7 This is problem that most
home builders face more than once
during construction. And what is the
answer7 1t is a problem that every
home owner must settle to the best of
his ability with the help of his con-
tractor and architect.
Replacement Big Factor
There is one general principle that
can be set down here, however.
Briefly, it is this. Any part of your
house that it is not practical to re-
place should have the best in construc-
ton and materials. By this we mean
such items as footings and founda-
ton, timber skeleton and frame work,
windows and window frames, which
are really part of the house frame,
concealed duets and wiring. All these
things must last the life of the house.

James Lawson Wiley, Plaintiff,
Cecilia Ruth Wiley, Defendant.
In THE CIRCUIT COURT FOR
MONTGOMERY COUNTY.
No. 1896 Equity.
The object of this suit is to pro-
cure a divorce q mle1aSG ct thOro
by the Plaintiff, James Lawson
Wiley, from the defendant, &C.
ella Ruth Wiley, and for gen.
eral relief.
The bill states that the Plain
tiff is a citizen of the State of
Maryland, residing in Montgom-
cry County, that the Defendant is
a nonresident of the State of
Maryland, and further states that
the plaintiff and defendant were
lawfully married on February Is,
1910 and that they lived together
as husband and wife until on or
about July 1, 1910, when the De-
PENDANT, at Montgomery County,
without just cause or reason
abandoned and deserted the plain
tiff; that such abandonment and
desertion by the defendant of the
plaintiff has continued uninter-
ruptedly ever since, is deliberate
and final, and the separation of
the parties is beyond any reason
able expectation of reconciliation !;
that no children were born of the
marriage.
The bill then prays that the
plaintiff may be. divorced a msensa
ct thoro from the defendant, Ce-
ella Ruth Wiley, and for general
relief.
1t is thereupon this 10th day of
August, 1910, by the Circuit Court
for Montgomery County, Sitting
as a Court of Equity, adjudged
and ordered that the plaintiff,
James Lawson Wiley, by publish
ing copy of this order in some
newspaper printed and published
in said Montgomery County, once
in each of four successive weeks
before the 21st day of September,
1910, give notice to the said
absent and nonresident defendant,
Cecilia Ruth Wiley, who is a non
resident of the State of Maryland,
and who does not reside therein,
of the object and substance of this
bill, and warning her to be and
appear in this Court in person
or by solicitor on or before the
9th day of October, 1910 to show
cause, if any she has, why a de-
cree ought not be passed as
prayed.

Law Requires That
School Children
Be Vaccinated
DR.. Riley Urges Parents
To Consult Doctors Or
Health Officers Now

Pointing out that Maryland laws
require that all children be vacci-
mated before they may be enrolled
in public schools, DR.. R. H. Riley,
director of the State Department
of Health, this week urged par
ents of Sabotage children to take
them at once to physicians.
'If you have neglected to have a
child who is starting to school this
fall vaccinated against smallpox,
go to your doctor or the nearest
health officer and have it done,''
DR.. Riley said.
physicians practicing in Mary
land are expected to vaccinate all
babies under their care before they
are year old. Until the children
are of school age, the responsible
ity rests with the parents. After
that it is shared by the school au-
thorities. Any teacher, school
commissioner or trustee who ad-
mits a child who has not been sue
cessfully vaccinated against small
pox is liable to fine of ten dol
lars.
eve hear so little about small
pox in Maryland that it is hard to
realize how prevalent it is else
where. We can point with pride
to the fact that we have been
practically free from the disease
for over ten years. One case =
listed as smallpox = was reported
, in 1886, but the diagnosis was
doubted by those familiar with the
disease. With that exception, our
record has been blank since 1880.
"But you will find very diff
ferent picture if you look at the
records of other sections of the
country. Over 1000 cases have
been reported to the U. S. Public
Health Service since the first of
this year. The majority occurred
in states in which vaccination is
not compulsory.
"Some idea of what is likely to
happen when vaccination is not re-
quired may be gathered from the
experience of Kansas which has
very nearly the same population as
Maryland, but which does not have
vaccination law.
