SOME HOPE OF DELIVERY

To offer some home of communi-
cation, a message form developed
by the Red Cross for messages
across enemy lines has now been
adapted to use for messages ad-
dressed to- service men reported
missing in action. The Red Cross
can give no assurance OF delivery.
AS facilities are available, these
messages will be sent to the dele
gate of the international Red Cross
committee in Japan, who will make
every effort to see that they are
delivered The new arrangement
does not apply to packages from
relatives or friends.
Persons, who have received noti-
fication that their relatives are
missing in action but have not been
notified that they are prisoners of
wan, may go to the nearest chapter
of the American Red Gross and be
assisted in the preparation of Red
Cross Message Form 1916.
The agencies which worked out
this arrangement ask that the
number of messages sent be limited
voluntarily SO that there may be the
best possible chance of delivery.
Members of families should agree
on a single message and friends
should, as far as possible, defer to
the family's greater claim to use
this 25-word message form.
