I 1 i "Join Red Cross," Ur^es Vice President Curtis | I i America's prominent citizens join : in urging all men and women to I j become members of the Red Cross ! during the period of the annual roll j j call from Armistice Day to Thanks- j I giving Day. The Honorable Charles Curtis, i Vice President of the United States, i says: "The American Red Cross is ! in a position to and does more to ! ! relieve those stricken by misfortune j than any other organization in the ' world. Its splendid work has done much to bring a friendly feeling in i j all parts of the world for the people of our country because they sustain j I the American Red Cross. This ! ' wonderful organization is entitled i to the liberal support of our peo- ! pie." The Honorable Andrew W. Mel- ; lon, Secretary of the Treasury, says: "No one can predict when or where disaster may occur or acute emergency arise. The American j i Red Cross represents our commu- j j nity insurance against such misfor j tunes. The organization stands > | ready at all times to render speedy , relief to any stricken area in our j own country or to assist in the re- ! lief of disaster in foreign countries. ' ! The Red Cross is the agency which - • carries on when emergency has dis- J rupted customary modes and means of life in a community." 1 : : ! Six Foreign Countries , Receive Red Cross Aid « Relief was given by the American | Red Cross during the year in six for eign nations in disasters ranging from a tidal wave in Newfoundland, an earthquake in Persia, floods in France i to help for refugees from Russia and • prevention of a smallpox epidemic in | Costa Rica. The 85,000 Red Cross contribution . to Newfoundland, following the tidal ? wave, which tcok twenty-six lives and destroyed many homes and fishing boats, was the first from an outside country to reach the distressed people. The sum of $5,000 was given to the I fund for the relief of the Mennonite j refugees of German descent, who had determined to leave Russia for new lands. About 13,000 passed through ! Germany, where the German Red \ Cross, aided by Red Cross societies of other nations, helped them. The ma jority are being transported to new countries in the western world and he American Red Cross has transmit ed contributions from individuals in lis country. When Costa Rica was menaced by i smallpox epidemic, the American i .led Cross sent fifty thousand tubes of accine, in two airplane loads, un doubtedly saving the country from a 1 serious outbreak of the dread disease.
