Across the seas from every war-torn nation in the Allied cause there comes the call
for Red Cross help.
It comes from soldiers who have grimly faced the gleaming bayonet steel and poi
son gas and screaming shells, and who now lie with parching throats and throbbing wounds.
It comes from soldiers sick with fever, pneumonia, tuberculosis.
It comes from soldiers crippled, mutilated, blinded, who can no longer fight and
must be taught and trained for useful occupations.
It comes from the underfed, shivering, helpless prisoners in the Germar prison camps.
It comes from little children, orphaned, homeless, slowly starving day by day, by tens
and tens of thousands.
It comes from mothers in the pillaged zones of war whose hearts and souls have
been made numb with horror.
From all these millions of suffering human beings there comes across the seas the
call for help—help that because of the frightful burdens placed upon our Allies cannot be
given unless it be provided by the American Red Cross.
Another hundred million is needed to “carry on.”
What will America’s answer be? What will Transylvania County do?
