Russian armies are besieging Pskov

can be best illustrated by its record Of
achievement for 1913. Here are a few Of
its outstanding services:
Last year the Red Cross produced $685.
100000 surgical dressings; collected
100000 pints of blood for plasma to save
the lives Of the wounded; gave personal
aid to 100000 servicemen and their
families; packed Gin ten months) $780,
600 food parcels for our boys who are pris-
oners Of war; made 100000 kit bags for
the armed forces; enrolled 27,600 nurses
for Army and Navy services, and trained
$4,000 nurses for a variety of other duties
including service in army hospitals.
This is only a partial record of a ire
mendous achievement for a civilian or
ganization depending upon voluntary con
tribution and volunteer labor. And it is
an achievement to which organized labor
has contributed in no small measure.
Mr.. Norman Davis, national chairman
Of the Red Cross, in a letter to Matthew
Woll, president Of the Labor League for
Human Rights, ALL, stated after the Red
Cross campaign of last year that without
the active help of organized workers, the
campaign cOulQ never nave IOppCu I'D
goal of $4,000 $1,000. But organized labor
gives more than money to the Red Cross.
All over the country its members and
%auxiliaries are giving generously of their
time and energy to Red Cross services,
and recruiting donors for the Red Cross
blood bank.
In its current campaign the Red Cross
is asking the American people for $780,
100000 to carry on its humanitarian work
sixty per cent more than in 1913, but
no more than is demanded to meet the
constantly increasing human need Great
ed by a continuing and expanding global
war. Through the Labor League for
Human Rights, the AFL is modified to
help the Red Cross top this goal as it
helped top last years. Organized labor
knows what the Red Cross means to the
men in our armed forces, and to the fami-
lies they have left behind. 1t will never
let them down.
The quota for Silver Bow county is So
600 and the committees are confident the
fund will be raised.
