Prepared to Save Lives One of the most valuable services given to the American public by the Red Cross is through its Life Saving and First Aid courses. Virtually all of the life guards at beaches and pools in the nation are Red Cross life savers Nearly every industry in America sup ports the First Aid work of the Red Cross because it annually saves lives of thousands of injured persons. These courses are taught by Red Cross ex perts in both lines. Last year 66,354 certificates were issued to persons com pleting the First Aid course and 78,795 certificates for completing Life Saving instruction. War Veterans' Problems Not since the period of the World War has the Red Cross faced a greater problem in handling the claims of World War and other veterans. Due to the changes in the regulations cover ing veterans’ claims, chapters all over the nation have been crowded with vet eran applicants for relief and for ser vice in preparing appeals. During last year Red Cross home service workers in 3.268 chapters dealt with the prob lems of 411,124 ex-service men or their families. The chapters also aided 7,346 men still in the regular army, navy and marine corps. An Army of Children The membership in the Junior Red Cross last year was 6,629,866 boys and girls in schools, private, public and parochial. They enjoyed volunteer work in hospitals and for orphans, the aged and crippled, and also aided their schoolfellows by providing attention for their eyes, purchasing their glasses, and giving many other types of service to them. The Juniors aid their school work by carrying on correspondence and the exchange of portfolios with school children in other nations.
