London. —Necessity for a prompt
peace settlement was emphasized by
J Winston Spencer Churchill in the
j house of commons. All information,
he said, showed the great privations
tho Gorman people are suffering and
the danger of collapse under pressure
of hunger of the entire structure of
German social and national life.
To delay the peace settlement, de
clared the war secretary, would In
evitably be to run the risk of having
nobody to settle with and of havtn*
another great area of the world sunk
under bolshevik anarchy.
Regarding the amount to be recov
ered from Germany, Mr. Churchill
said It had already been announced
the allies Intended t* exact all Ger
many possibly could pay. There
would ho substantial contributions for
the upkeep of the army on the Rhine .
in addition.

adds, there Is serious consideration of
the formation of an Independent Oer
man republic on the left bank of the
Rhine. The allies, It is said, would
continue to hold the present Rhine
bridgeheads until Oermany completed
her Indemnity payments.
In discussing the Indemnity regula
tions us fixed by the peace confer
ence committee on reparations the
newspapers say Germany will have |
to pay a certain sum before the end i

an autocratic power." He added that

Dr. Livingston Farrand Permanent
| Leader of Peace Organization.
Washington.—(Special.)—Henry p -
Davison as chairman Issues the follow
ing statement on behalf of the War
Council of the American Rod Cross:
"To the American People:
"The Council of the American
Red Cross appointed by President Wll
son on May 10, 1917, to carry on the
work of the American lied Cross dur
ing the war, at their request and by
vote of the Central Committee, ceased
■t midnight, February 28.
"Immediately the armistice was
algncd the War Council Instituted
studies to determine when the strict
ly war work of the organization would
have been sufficiently matured to en
able the direction of affairs to be re
sumed by the permanent staff. Henry
P. Davison, being In Paris when the
armistice was signed, summoned a
conference .there of the heads of all
, the lied Cross Commissions In Europe
|to canvass the situation. After con-
I sldering all the factors it wag con- |
I eluded to make the transition on
March 1. The very fortunate choice
| of Dr. I.fvlnßston Farrand as the new
' chairman of the Central Committee,
and thereby the permanent chief ex
ecutive of the Red Cram, makes possi
ble the consummation of tills plan un
der the most favorable conditions.
Accounts Audited by War Department.
"Detailed reiiorts to Congress and a
complete audit of Its accounts by the
j War Department will constitute the
i final record of Red Cross activity dur
ing the war. Although It has been
the rule to make public all expendi
tures when authorllzed and to give de
tailed Information relative to all work
undertaken, the War Council In turn
ing over its responsibilities to Dr. Far
rand and his associates desire to give
a brief resume of Red Cross war time
activities to the American pcaple, to
whom the Red Cross belong, and whose
generous contributions hove mado pos
sible all that has been accomplished.
I "During the past nearly twenty-one
months the American people have
' given In cash and supplies to the
I American Red Cross more than SIOO,-
000,000. No value can be placed" upon
lite contributions of service which
huve been given without stint and of
tentimes at great sacrifice by millions
of our people.
"The effort of the American Rod
Cro«3 In this wnr constituted by
far the largest voluntary gifts of
money, of hand and heart, ever con
tributed purely for the relief of hu
man suffering. Through the Ited Cross
the heart and spirit of the whole
American people have been mobilized
to take care of our own, to relieve the
misery Incident to the war, and also
to reveal to the world the supreme
Ideals of our national life.
"Everyone who has had any part In
this war effort of the Red .Cross is en
titled to congratulate himself. No
thanks from anyone could be equal In
value to the self satisfaction every
one should feel for the part taken.
1 Fully 8,000,000 American wtSmen huve
1 exerted themselves lu Red Cross serv
ice.
Has Over 17,000,000 Adult Members.
"When we entered the wnr the
American Red Cross hnd nbout &00.000
members. Today, as the result of the
recent Christmas membership Roll
Call, there are upwards of 17,000.000
full pnld members outside of the jnem
-1 tiers of the Junior Ited Cross, number
ing perhaps 0,000,000 school children
additional.
"The chief effort of the Red Cross
during the war has been to cure for
our men In service and to uid our
army and navy wherever the- Red
Cross may be called op to assist. As
to this phase of the work Surgeon Gen
eral Ireland of the C. S. Army recent
ly said: 'The lied Cross bus been un
enterprise as vast us the war Itself.
From the beginning It has done those
things which the Army Medical Corps
wanted done, but could not do itself.'
"The lied Cross endeavor In France
has nuturally been upon an exception
ally large scale where service i«e
been rendered to the American Ar.ny
and to the French Army and the
Freiftih people as well, the latter par
ticulate* during the trying p«rlod
when tl\ Allied World was waiting
for the American Army to arise In
force ItfJd power. Hospital emergency
servlceV for our army In France has
greatly Nllmlnlshed, bnt tha-Red Cross
Is Btiii/iielng called upon for service
uponyn large acale In the great base
hospitals, where thousands of Ameri
can alck and wounded are still receiv
ing attention. At these hospitals the
lied Cross supplies huts' nnd facilities
for the amusement and recreation of
the tnen as they become convalescent.
Our Army of Occupation In (icrmaily
WA followed with Medical units pre
pare* 1 to render the same emergency
•Id and Wipply service wlik-h was the
prin.?r» business of the Red Cross
during hostilities., The Army fanteen
service along the Vnes of travel has
actually Increased since the armistice.
"As for work among the French peo
j pie, now that hostilities have ceased,
the French themselves naturally pre
fer as far as posalhle to provide for
their own. It has accordingly been de
termined that the guiding principle of
Red Cross policy In France henceforth
shall l>e to have punctilious retard to
( Its every responsibility, but to direct
(Ita efforts primarily to asklstlnj
French relief societies. The liberated
I and devastated regions of France have
been divided by the government Into
small districts, each officially assigned
to a designated French relief organi
zation.
"The American Red Cross work In
France was initiated by a commission
of eighteen men who landed on French
shores June 18, 1017. Since then
•one 0,000 persons have been upon the
rolls In France, of whom 7,000 were
{ actively engaged when the armistice
was signed. An indication of the pres
ent scale of the work will be obtained
from the fact that the services of 0,000
person* are still required.
"Our American Expeditionary Force
having largely evacuated England, the
activities of the Red Croaa Commis
sion there are naturaljy. upon a dlmln-
fsßng scale period. Xcßv"e operations 1'
■re still In progress In Archangel and I
Siberia. ~ 1
"The work In Italy has been almost
entirely on behalf of the civilian pop- I
'elation of that country. In the critical |
| hours of Italy's struggle the American
I people, through their Red Cross, Mot .
a practical message of sympathy and ■
relief, for which the government and
peoplo of Italy have never ceased to
express their gratitude.
Supplies and Personnel to Nsar East.
"The occasion for such concentra
tion of effort In Italy, England, Bel
giurn ami even In France having natur- j
ally and normally diminished, It has
been possible to divert supplies and
personnel In large measure to.the aid 1
of those people in the Near East who 1
have hitherto been Inaccessible to out- i
side assistance, but whose sufferings i
hare been upon an appalling scale, |-
The needs of these peoples are so vagt : 
that government alone can meet them, I
but the American Red Cross Is making i .
an effort to relieve immediately the j j
more ncute distress.
"An extensive group" of American ,
workers has been dispatched to carry
vitally needed supplies, and to work | (
this winter In the various Balkan coun- (
tries. In order to co-ordinate their ac- (
tlvltles, a Balkan commission has been 1
established, with headquarters at (
Rome, Italy, from wht,ch point alone (
ail the' Balkan centers can be reached j )
promptly.
"A commission has just reached Po- j
land with doctors and nurses, medical (
supplies, and food for sick children (
and Invalids. An .American Red Cross
Commission has also been nppofnted (
to nld In rcllovlng the suffering of Rus- j
slan prisoners still confined in German
prison camps. ' J
"All Important commission is still
working In Palestine. Through the .
war special co-operation hns been ,
given to the Armenian and Syrian Re- .
lief Commission, which was the only .
agency able to carry relief in the In- ,-
terlor o1 Turkish dominions.
Rsd Cross Will Continue. ' '
"Red Cross effort is thus far flung.
It will continue to be so. But the
movement represented by this work
has likewise assumed an intimate place
In the dally life of our people at home. —|
The army of workers which has been
recruited and trained during the war
must not be demobilized. All our ex
perience in the war shows clearly that
there Is an unlimited field for service
of the kind which can be performed
with peculiar effectiveness by the Red
Cross. What its future tasks may be
it Is yet Impossible to forecast We
know thnt so long as there Is an Amer
ican army In the field the Red Cross
will have a special function to perform.
"Nothing could be of greater Impor
tance to the American Red Cross than
the plans Jnst set in motion by the five
great Red Cross societies of the world
to develop a program of extended ac
tivities in the Interest of humanity.
The conception Involves not alone ef
forts to relieve human suffering, but
to prevent It; not nlono a movement
by the people of an individual nation,
but an attempt to arouse all people to
a sense of their responsibility for the
welfare of their fellow beings through
out the world. It is a program both
ideal and practical. Ideal In that Its
supreme aim is nothing less than ver- j
itable "Peace on earth good -will to ,
men," and practical In that It seeks to
take means nnd measures which are
actually available and make them ef
fective in meeting without delay the
crisis which Is dally recurrent In the
lives of all peoples.
"For accomplishing Its mission In
the years of peace which must lie
aluind of us the Red Cross will require
the ablest possible leadership, and
must enjoy the continued support, sym
pathy, and participation 18-"tts work
1 of the whole American people. It Is
particularly fortunate that such a man
as Dr. Livingston Farrand should have
been selected as the permanent head
1 of the organization. The unstinted
fashion In which a]l our people gave
of themselves throughout the war is
the best assurance thnt our Red Ooss
will continue to receive that co-opera
tion which will make Its work a source
of pride and inspiration to every Amel*
lean."
Mr. Davison, as chairman Of the In
ternational Commission of the Ameri
can Red Cross, has undertaken to rep
resent the American Red Cross In the
preparation of the program for extend
ed Red Cross nctlvltles, and-will spend
the next several months In Europe In

eties for I hat puritose.
