AMERICAN RED CROSS

M ATERIAL assistance to serv-
1vA ice mems dependents by the
1900 chapters of the American
Red Cross has increased more
than six-fold in the past few
months, officials announced today.
Families or dependents Of
men in the armed forces are
urged to keep in close touch
with their Red Cross chapters
so that existing problems may
be handled promptly and 9TH
ers arising from war condi-
tons may be prevented.
When war was declared whole
sale cancellation of applications
for discharges from the army on
the grounds of dependency upset
families plans for the immediate
future. Likewise, the transfer of
troops from one station to another,
and orders for departure from the
country, left many unsettled prob
lens. These sudden shifts Great
ed an unprecedented increase of
work for the chapters.
However, with its resources gen.
erously contributed by the Amer
lean people, the Red Cross is en-
abled to relieve immediate hard
ships of the service mems farni-
lies and to help them plan adjust
ments to wartime conditions.
officials stress the fact that
this service to- dependents is
a legal and moral obligation Of
the Red Cross derived from its
congressional charter.
Young wives and children left
stranded far from home; parents
who are hard-pushed to make ends
meet: younger brothers and sis
tiers in need Of food or clothing
these are just few of the thou
sands of situations which are be-
ing taken care Of by local Red
Cross home service workers.
II q service man is reported
killed, wounded or missing the Red
Cross win obtain information
through its communication facali-
ties. The men of the armed forces
are likewise served by the thou
sand or more field workers on duty
at all major military and naval
stations at home and abroad. The
minds of men on duty are relieved
by the knowledge that the Red
Cross will help clear up the I'M
settled problems they left behind.

intimated that Kay Kyser's orches-
ira would accompany them.
