A BIT OF HISTORY

"A BIT OF HISTORY
THE REL CROSS means so much to so many of us that
we almost accept it as second nature. Whenever disaster
strikes everyone turns first to the Red Cross, and never has
that Mother" failed.
ECAUS OF WHAT the Red Cross represents, it is
well every now and again to turn over the pages of history
and look at the beginning of this organization. It will help
us to understand and evaluate its purpose and its meaning,
IA HENRI DUNANT, a native of Switzerland, is
credited with actually starting the movement. He was tour
ing Italy in the year 1859. At that time Napoleon the Third
of France had attacked Austria. Dunant saw the battle of
SoIferino, which left some 10000 dead and wounded on the
battlefield. Mortified by the suffering Of the wounded, and
the lack Of medical care, Dunant appealed to Napoleon to
release captured Austrian doctors to look after the wounded
Napoleon agreed.
YEARS LATER UNA published a pamphlet which
he called a Souvenir, of Solferino, in which he recounted his
experiences, and which he ended with the following plea:
Would it not be possible to found and organize in all civil
lied countries permanent societies Of volunteers who in the
time Of war would give help to the wounded without regard
for their nationality?
THIS APPEAL WAS not to go UNDECIDED Representa-
tives Of Is countries met in Geneva the year following the
publication of Dmants pamphlet and laid the groundwork
for the Red Cross Society. The organizations %symbol-a red
cross on a white bacghound-was chosen, in honor OF Swift
zerlands flag. In 1864, the First Treaty of Geneva, also
known as the International Red Cross Treaty, was drafted.
THE UNITED STATES ratified the Geneva convention
Is years later. Barbara Barton, who had been in Europe dur
ing the Franco-Prussian War became impressed, and upon
her return to the United States urged President James A.
Garfield to request the Senate to ratify the Geneva convention.
President Garfield was assassinated, but in 1882 President
Chester A. Arthur signed the ratification, which the Senate
annroued unanimously.
