JEWS OPPOSE A SEGREGATED
NATION.
Short-sighted colored men who are talking about a "negro republic" in Africa, and forgetting to agitate for reform in the treatment of 12,000,000 colored citizens of the United States, ought to know that prominent non-Zionist Jews from all parts of the United States have sent with President Wilson to the peace conference their objections to the Zionist demand for a Jewish state in Palestine.
The petition was handed to the President by Congressman Kahn on February 5. There were 988 names on the petition representing the richest and most prominent Hebrews in the country.
The objections to the establishment of a "Jewish Homeland in Palestine" are set forth under four specific headings, the chief one of which is that "the Jews are dedicated heart and soul to the countries in which they dwell under free conditions."
"All Jews," the petition states, "repudiate every suspicion of a double allegiance, but to our minds it is necessarily implied in and cannot by any logic be eliminated from the establishment of a sovereign state for the Jews."
The petition also states that "by the large part taken by them in the great war, the Jews have once and for all shattered the base aspersions of the anti-Semites, who charged them with being aliens in every land, incapable of true patriotism, and prompted only by sinister and self-seeking motives." It says that those who would seek the establishment of a Jewish sovereign state and yet "insist on their patriotic attachment to the countries of which they are citizens, are self-deceived in their professions of Zionism, and under a spell of emotional romanticism or of a religious sentiment fostered through centuries of gloom."
If the Jews representing to a great extent the leadership -in commerce and industry and the money power of the World are opposed to a "jimcrow" state, why should not colored men protest against segregation in every form?
SEGREGATED ON THE OLYMPIA BY "SOUTHERN COMMANDERS"
AND COLORS LOST, THE CHARGE
By Philip A. Payne
New York, Feb. 24—Colored officers of the 365th Infantry, Chicago's colored draft regiment, who returned from France today, charged they had been Jim Crowed on the transport Ohio and theAggregatedsuburban and colonel, ranking officers aboard the ship, had refused to rescind an order segregating them from the white officers.
Their charges, made in writing and presented to newspaper men by a Olive Branch A. secretary, acting behalf of the other colored unit, substantiated by colored officers of the 365th Field Artillery, the 367th Infantry and the 317th Sanitary Train, the other colored units on the transport.
Officers Refused Justice.
They said "Brigadier General Charles Gearhardt, commanding all troops on the Olympic, and Colonel George H. McMullen, commanding the 365th Infantry, the southerners of the old school, with all the old traditions, and refused to see justice done the colored officers."
British naval officers commanding the Olympic told a delegation of the protesting colored officers the segregation order had been issued to them by their white commander.
Twelve colored officers of the 365th and the other organizations gathered in the cabin of the regimental chapel while the Y. M. C. A. secretary gave a copy of the charges to reporters. The man said he was acting as the officer, who moved marital proceedings if their names were used. They substantiated his statement.
BURLESON'S SERVICE
Philadelphia is only a two hours run by train from New York, and there is a train every hour, but it took the Burlesonized postal service from a Thursday afternoon to Saturday afternoon to transport an important package of medicine that distance, and deliver it. To expedite matters, the telegraph, the telephone and special delivery services were called into action but the medicine reached its destination an hour after the patient had died. What would you have to say if the patient had been a member of your family?
Remembering the language in which President Wilson induced his democratic congress to reverse itself on the subject of Panama canal tolls against the interests of the United States, it will not be surprising if he tells the country that the proposed constitution of the League of Nations must be indored "in ungrudging measure" or he will not know how to deal with other vital international problems.
"REBUILDING THE WORLD."
"Rebuilding the world," is the inscription surrounding the cross on the shield of the "Missionary Centenary of the Methodist Episcopal Church," which is working up a scheme to get Southern colored people to plant cotton in "God's Acreage" and contribute the money to the missionary fund of $120,000,000 which it is planned to raise.
THE APPEAL does not believe that the colored people should give one penny to aid the Methodist Episcopal Church until it reverses its present jimcrow policy.
The Methodist Episcopal Church split into two branches over the question of slavery, but now the Northern and Southern branches are to come together again at the centenary. The weak-kneed Northern men have given in to the aggressive Southerners and have agreed to sacrifice their colored members who have been asked to form a jim crow church. So far the colored members have refused to get out, but they may perhaps be kicked out.
The Methodist Episcopal Church has given up all ideas of the "Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man," and at the centenary it is very likely that the brethren will recount the wonderful thing the church has done for "the negro" and all will join in singing "Onward, Christian Soldier."
QUIZ ON OFFICERS' "JIM CROW." The colored officers of the 365th infantry regiment, the majority of whom are national army men from Illinois, are very indignant because they were
My soul is sick with every day's report
Of wrong and outrage, with which earth is filled.
There is no flesh in man's obdurate heart.
It does not feel for man: the natural bond
Of brotherhood is severed as the flax
That falls asunder at the touch of fire.
He finds his fellow guilty of a skin
Not colored like his own: and having power
To enforce the wrong, for such a worthy cause
Dooms and devotes him as his lawful prey.
Officers Refused Justice.
SAME OLD STUFF.
Their specific charges were: That colored officers of the 365th Infantry, 317 Sanitary Train, 367th Infantry and 350th F. A. were grouped together, irrespective of rank, in a separate dining room on board the Olympic, while white leeanitens, captains and field officers of the same or enlisted men's nurses of enlisted men's rank Y. Y. A. secretaries and field clerks A. A. in the main dining room with passivity. That the demand of colored officers for fair play in letters to Commander General Charles Gearhard resulted in his dogging the issue by saying the colored officers got the same service as was given in the main dining room. The dogging among the officers is aggravated by the regimental flag and colors of the Infantry were lost. The colored officers say this is the result of negligence and lack of regard for their flag
Colored Captain in Tears.
With tears rolling down his cheeks, a colored captain said if the regiment paraded in Chicago it would march without its colors. These colors, which were paid for by the captain, little littered children in Chicago and formally attached to the regiment at the Coliseum, were taken away from us after hostilities ended to be salvaged," he said. "Every colored officer and enlisted man in this regiment—and many of them have been cited for bravery—burns with dignification because of this added insult."
Scores of enlisted men verified the statement made by the captain.
segregated from the whites during the journey from Brest to New York on the White Star steamer Olympic.
One Chicago colored officer, a graduate of two universities, who was a cabin passenger aboard the Olympic, said his fellow officers were as happy as larks until they learned, after boarding the vessel that they were to be separated from the white officers in the dining saloon. He said:
"We ate in the side dining-room, first class, while the others ate in the main dining-room. We sent a letter to Brig. Gen. Charles Erhardt requesting an investigation and an explanation. He answered that there was no attempt to segregate us, but that we were fed in different sections because of the large number aboard.
"There was no segregation in the battlefields of Europe. We all fought together as Americans through and through, all intent on bringing victory to the American arms and peace to the entire world."
Every colored officer and man aboard the Olympic declared today that just as soon as they reached their homes they intended to institute an investigation to determine who was responsible for the slight toward the colored officers aboard the Olympic.
According to William Jennings Bryan, federal control of the railroads doesn't work because there are still some railroad men connected with it. We suppose that the theater will attain its highest state of efficiency just as soon as all the actors are removed and that the churches will reach the pinnacle of success in removing evil from the world when the preachers have all been taken away. Better stick to grape juice and woman suffrage, William!
JOB& IN U. & SERVICE
Permanent employment in the government service and immediate reinstatement in the federal civil service of men who served in the army and navy is announced in a bulletin issued by the federal civil service commission at Washington. In expectation of the mustering out of thousands of former government employees from the military and naval service who will be seeking reinstatement in the government service the federal civil service commission obtained an executive order by the president providing for the reinstatement at any time within five years of discharge of any person leaving the classified civil service to engage in the military or naval service of the country. Under the president's ruling it will not be necessary for the applicant to be reinstated in his former position, but anywhere in the civil service, provided that at the time of reinstatement he has the required fitness to
"Fair Play Denied."
BILL BRYAN BOBS UP
AN ABSOLUTE MONARCHY?
No, An Absolute Democracy! But Wilson Relgnal
(From the Cincinnati Union.)
There are more ways of killing a dog than hanging him." Our Democratic administration, so anxious to make the world safe for democracy, has shown a subline disregard for the rights and safety of colored American citizens at home. It now seems to alot that, by refusing passports to representatives of those who complain of intolerable conditions here, that Europe will not know of the foul canker that gnaws the very vitals of our government." Tis another case of the ostrich sticking it head in the sand and feeling that its body is hid. Europe knows that there is a skeleton of the ostrich colored and that skeleton is the black citizen of the U. S., occupant of the front-line trenches during times of war; occuper perform the duties of the position to which reinstatement is sought. A long list of occupational opportunities for employment in federal publ itic works is contained in the bulletin Application should be filed directly with the labor board at all government plants.
WISE SPENDING
Are you a wise spender? Wise spending is regarded as a highly important preliminary to thrift by the U. S. Treasury. As part of its campaign for promoting popular savings through Thrift and War Savings Stamps during 1919, it has issued through its Savings Division the following definition of wise spending, which merits the thoughtful attention of every family and every individual who would get ahead in life:
Wise spending implies the balancing of all needs and of all means-of meeting these needs and, after balancing needs against means, spending in such a way as to meet the most urgent needs, even if lesser ones have to be left unsatisfied; in essence it means a sort of budget-making. When a family, city or state makes a budget, what it does essentially is to take a comprehensive view of both needs and income. It is important that not all the income be spent on the first needs that may occur lest other more urgent needs appear and no funds be left-to-meet them; that is, thought must be taken so that available income can be applied intelligently and wisely to cover most important needs and to satisfy them somewhat in proportion to their relative importance.
"Perhaps the most important and difficult problem in connection with wise spending (or saving) is to realize the relative importance of future as compared with present needs. The temptation of all of us is to satisfy present needs at the neglect of future needs. It is very foolish to neglect the urgent necessities of today for the petty wants of the morrow, but few need very much persuasion to induce them to take care of the present. Where most of us are foolish or unwise is in satisfying petty wants of the present rather than saving in order that urgent needs of the future can be met."
A GOOD BILL
Mr. Madden, of Illinois, has offered a bill in Congress to further amend an act entitled "An Act to regulate commerce," approved in 1887, that will, if passed, do away with every jim-crow system of transportation within the territorial boundaries of the United States. It has been referred to the Committee on Interstate and Foreign Commerce and ordered to be printed. As the next Congress which will have it to deal with has working Republican majority, it is hoped that the members of the party of, Lincoln and Summer, the party of equal rights, will see to it that it is promptly enacted into law.
GOING UP!
A survey by the Department of Labor of government salaries in the city of Washington discloses the fact that elevator conductors in the Food Administration were paid as high as $1,800 per annum, while payment for the same service in other departments ranged as low as $480. Other lines of work show similar discrepancies in compensations. Among the other government offices.
Protest on Segregation.
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People through its Secretary, John R. Shillady of New York, makes public a letter to Secretary of War, Newton D. Baker of the National Museum random issued by command of Memo general Nicholson on February 14, at Camp Upton to the Commanding Officer of various colored units now at that camp, directing the commanding officers to instruct their men and not to use us with Hostess House in the city, so the one set aside for colored soldiers at Second Avenue and 13th Street.
The Association entered its protest and its request for action by the War Department for two reasons which it house provided for colored troops is totally inadequate to serve all of the colored troops at the camp at this time. The fact that the entire 92nd Division is in the America or on its way here, together with other colored units. Second, the Association declares that no inopportune time to issue such an order has been chosen, in view of the fact that these same men who are barred from the Hostess Houses of the camp are those who have just returned from France and many of them being wounded and
paint of the "Jim Crow" coaches during times of peace.
The pity of the whole despicable business is that our country is not great enough to live up to its own strength, not noble enough to follow the laws of our own Christianity! It basely bowes to the price of prejudice and condemns its citizens to scorn, contempt and humiliation. The burden of this petty passport problem need not be placed on the people of France, for that glorious country, of France, has been great enough to honor and protect its citizens, regardless of race, regardless of color. The tint of the skin, the curl of the hair, has never been the cause of humiliation in La Belle France; and the need of need, gloriously did her sable help her support. The day will come when America on bended knee will cry for help. Will there still remain forgivable sons to come to her aid, or will there have been brutally done to death by the mob, the tree, the torch?
many of them having seen their comrades killed, and that such an order is not only an insult but a repudiation of the principle of democracy for which they fought. The Association asks that Secretary Baker, as head of the War Department, take action immediately to correct this mistake.
JIM CROW DAY IN BOSTON
(From the Boston Guardian)
Boston Guardian.)
Monday, February 24, was a typical Jim Crow day in Boston. It seems to have been so planned. The time was given over to welcoming the returning president. In the evening there was a meeting held to honor-collaborating soldiers. The two occasions at least were the congratulations of the Jim Crow doctrine of "suffrage" and the strict but equal" or the Jim Crow arrangement of "Up to the big house and down to the big gate." The impressions of the events are significant. There are many and variant views here on the question of league of Nations. There are equally views on the race question and the rights of man. But on this occasion Boston behaved herself proud. There were buckling of the president. The reception was dignified and orderly. But he left Boston still in possession of her views.
There was no rough-necking down at the big gate. Mr. Scott and Mr. Moton were received with respectful greetings. But they left Boston with no greater intention to compromise human rights or barriers with beckoning and Jim Crow propagandists. Three-fourths of the audience were white. Doubtless they are friends of the race. Their presence points to another vital circumstance. The meeting was under the auspices of a settlement house with beckoning. Many white people are willing to assign a restricted mendicant status to the best the colored man can produce. But the braising colored man does not accept the principle of ward and warden any more than the ward of man and master. They are allies and are opposed to self-determination. Boston passed the incident coolly but respectfully. The results so far all objectives go were a boomerang. To sum up Jim Crow day in Boston was a black frost.
"With a Smile."
(From the St. Paul Daily News.)
"We are all decorated. Some with the war cross, but all with a smile."
That's what one of New York's colored troopers said when the 333th Infantry paraded on Fifth avenue.
Of the regiment, 116 wore decorations for conspicuous gallantry, a creditable percentage for any regiment. But the smiles! Those boys were glad to get back. That's what made them smile. Are they going to stay glad? That's up to the American public. American colored men have never had a square deal. Knowing the Germans imagined they could stir trouble among our Southern colored men. They guessed wrong. Not only on the firing line, but also on mean, odious, hard work of the S. O. the collar came through with flying colors, and did his job well and gladly. While we are talking about Americanism it would be less than right if we were going to iron to iron "Jim Crow" regulations which the colored men naturally detest.
William Monroe Trotter Reconsecrates Himself.
(From the Boston Guardian.) We consecrate all of the powers we have to exercise immediate reign of justice and law in our own country, 12,000,000 of our own colored fellow citizens, not on the banks of the Rhine, on the banks of the Mississippi; not in Africa, but in Georgia. We call on men on man or man to win in this fight, but we know as Charles Summer once said: "Justice reigns aloft on the throne of God and not below with the multitude. We turn from faint-eyed, headed cheer ourselves with the thought: "The Lord God omnipent negretm."
Porto Rico Will Demand Statehood or Freedom.
San Juan, Porto Rico, March 5—After a debate of more than two days in both houses of the insular legislature, the Unionists and Republicans today agreed to join forces in insisting that the American congress make known what the future of Porto Rico is. It is agreed that if there can be no assurance that it is possible, the parties should work for independence. The people of Porto Rico are not satisfied with color line which has been forced upon them.
Mrs. Wilson to Be Given Portrait of Pocahontas.
Richmond, Va. March 6—A private copy of the original portrait of Pocahontas will be presented by the Virginia branch. Colonial Dames of America will present a local descendant of the Indian princess, committee has been named to present the gift to Mrs. Wilson in Washington. Being a lineal descendent of a man is not a pure Caucasian but a woman, a small percentage of Indian blood.
Moton's Advice To Soldiers Oversea Starts Big Storm
TUSKEGEE'S NEW PRINCIPAL TELLS BRAVE WARRIORS NOT TO-RESIST OLD CONDITIONS ON RETURN
Sourthern Newspapers In Paris Praise Unwanted Suggestions To Black Troopers as to Their Conduct, on Returning Home---
Moton's Special Mission Explained
(From the New York News.) Paris, Jan.-Dr. Robert R. Moton, who came here to France on a "special" mission, made a trip, via automobile, to two or three points where colored soldiers he made an arrest, met at each point visited, and especially upon them when returning to the United States, to be "modest and unassuming." The Stars and Stripes published in Paris, and in the interest of the A. E. F., and which heretofore has given very little space to mention publishing something as amorous, and always using the alleged Southern dialect, gave Mr. Moton's address considerable space, emphasizing the point he made that the colored soldiers should return "modest and unassuming." The Paris edition of which likewise has given little, which likewise has given little, also gave Dr. Moton's address to the colored soldiers a prominent space, and particularly noted

To the President of our Republic, Commander-in-Chief of our humane era, the principles on which the winners fought this war, and its purpose.

With the ushering in of the new year, 1919, the nations of the world are assocated to settle the terms of peace for the world, for the establishment everywhere, for principles for which this world war was waged by the forces of democracy.
Therefore every denial or violation of justice, humanity and democracy has become a matter FOR CORRECTION AND ABROGATION ON A WORLD BASIS BY A WORLD COURT.
This court, which furnished 400,000 brave soldiers for this war backed by over 12,000,000 loyal citizens without a traitor, appeals to the allied World for justice and Democracy in the present.
Utterly Undemocratic Treatment Of Colored People of U. 8. A
Citizens by law of the United States of America, the famous Republic of the West, we first appeal to the civilized world for the discontinuance of all discrimination in the world peace settlement. At this supreme moment in the civilized world, when wrongs to man should be banished, we must call world attention to cratic conditions under which every person of color is forced to live in this country. Because of race autocracy, our color in the Nation's Capital deserves the right except in public carriers and subjects us to rejection or to the removal of employees of the federal government. Otherwise our color in many states of us, us of every civil, political, social and judicial right; subjects us to objection, imposition, deprivations, injustices, cruelties, atrocities, worse in degree than others, also in Christendom. Segregation in public carriers, disfranchisement, lynching, essentially violations of that world democracy for which the war was fought.

THIS IS FOR THE LADIES.
To meet the demand for instruction in home care of the sick, which has been tremendously emphasized this winter by the shortage of nurses to take care of influenza patients, a course of nine lessons in the home care of the sick will be offered at University Farm beginning April 9. One lesson will be given every Wednesday from 2 p. m. to 4 p. m. for nine weeks.
The course will be offered by Miss H. J. Fisher, a Red Cross nurse, who is instructor in home nursing at University Farm, and will be given in the west wing of the Ladies' Hall, where there is a complete equipment for use in demonstrations.

She shall sleep, but not forever. There will be a glorious dawn. We shall meet to part, no, never, On the Resurrection Morn.

PUNGENT PARAGRAPHS.
From the Address of Attorney W. T. Francis, on Reconstruction and the Negro, at Pilgrim Baptist Church, Sunday, March 9, 1919.
The spirit of Democracy must be firmly and faithfully planted and cultivated here in order that white men and black men dwell together, in the North and in the South, as friends and neighbors.
Let it become a reality rather than a fiction that America is the great melting pot of all races.
If men are brave enough to fight and die together in peace and harmony during the time of war, they ought to be brave enough to love and live together in peace and harmony after the war.
We must stop looking backward and living in the past.
We must turn our faces, our time and attention to the rising sun of opportunity that bespeaks the dawn of a new day for us in this reconstruction period.
It is true that we don't have as many
many as we are entitled, but, it is
many as we are entitled, but, it is
J. E. K.
ATTY. W. T. FRANCIS
also true that lack of preparation deprives us of more opportunities than the color of our skin does.
Don't hesitate because you are colored, or because no other colored person has done what you desire to do—make up your mind to improve your condition and do it.
It is a good plan and we can progress with greater rapidity if we will adopt the system of telling the white man of the good things done by the race, of the good men and the good women of the race, and talk of the good things done for the race.
One of the things most detrimental to the progress of the colored people is that the average white man knows, but don't know he knows so little about the Negro, and he either seeks no opportunity to learn or persists in refusing to learn, and so judges the entire race by the criminal conduct of those who are exceptional and in no way represent the intelligence and morals of the average Negro.
Unfortunately too many of our people think that to fight the battle of the race means we must go about with a scowl on our face and a chip on our shoulder; and that we are not accomplishing anything unless we are cracking somebody over the head, delivering a blow to a rival, or making a protest at an indignation meeting.
Let us cultivate race, loyalty, be manly, courageous and void of offense. Keep out of trouble, but when the fight is brought to us, fight like tigers.
CARD OF THANKS
To all the kind friends who so kindly and generously assisted with words of comfort during the illness, and of condolence at the demise of our beloved sister and mother, Mrs. Georgiana Smith, we desire to tender our sincere and heartfelt thanks.

PAY AND FILE INCOME TAX BEFORE MAR.15
U. S. Internal Revenue Bureau Gives Warning That Severe Penalties Will Be Enforced.
WOMEN WITHIN LAW'S SCOPE;
HOW THEY REPORT INCOME
The Income Tax drive comes to a close on Saturday night, March 15. All payments and returns due on that date under the provisions of the new Revenue Law must be in the hands of local Internal Revenue Collectors before their offices close that night. The Income Tax is being collected to meet the war expenses. Every person who shouted and tooted his horn on Armistice Day is now called upon to contribute his share of the cost of winning the war. The laggards and the dodgers will face severe fines and jail sentences. The Internal Revenue Bureau announces that its officers will check us all up to that see that every person who comes within the scope of the Income Tax law did his share.
Where to Pay and File.
Residents of Minnesota are required to make their returns and pay their taxes to Edward J. Lynch, Collector of Internal Revenue, St. Paul, Minn., or to any of his deputy collectors who are now doing free advisory work on Income Tax.
Payments sent by mail should be attached to the returns and should be in the form of check, money order or draft. Cash payments by mail are sent at the taxpayer's risk of loss.
If you are unable to make your return personally because of illness, absence or incapacity an agent or legal representative may make your return.
If there are any doubtful points as to your items of income or allowable deductions you should get in touch at once with a Revenue officer or a banker for advice.
Women Pay Tax.
Women are subject to all the requirements of the Income Tax. Whether single or married, a woman's income from all sources must be considered.
If unmarried or if living apart from her husband she must make her return for 1918 if her net income was $1,000 or over.
If married and living with her husband her income must be considered with the husband's in determining the liability for a return. Their joint income, less the credits allowed by law, is subject to normal tax. The wife's net income is considered separately in computing any surtax that may be due. Husband and wife file jointly, as a rule. If the husband does not include his wife's income in his return the wife must file a separate return.
Severe Penalties.
The new Revenue Law places severe penalties on a person who fails to make return on time, refuses to make return or renders a fraudulent return. For failure to make return and pay tax on time a fine of not more than $1,000 is named and 25 per cent of the tax due is added to the assessment. For refusing wilfully to make return or for making a false or fraudulent return there is a fine of not exceeding $10,000 and imprisonment of not exceeding one year, or both.
Farmers' Income Taxable.
FARMERS' INCOME TAXABLE.
Every farmer and ranchman who had a fair or a good year in 1918 must heed the Income Tax this year. He must consider all his income as taxable. He is entitled to deduct from his gross income all amounts expended in carrying on his farm. The cost of farm machinery, farm buildings and improvements cannot be deducted. The cost of live stock, either for resale or for breeding purposes, is also regarded as investment.
Overtime and Bonuses Taxed.
Salary and wage earners must consider as taxable every item received from employers and from other sources. Bonuses and overtime pay are to be reported as well as the regular payments.
Allowances for Losses.
Losses sustained in 1918 and not covered by insurance are deductible items if incurred in the taxpayer's business or trade, in any transaction undertaken for profit or arising from fire, storm, shipwreck or other casualty or from theft.
SQUARE DEAL FOR EVERY
INCOME TAX PAYER.
Washington, D. C. — "The
rights of all persons now filing
Income Tax returns are amply
protected by provisions for
abatements, refunds and ap-
peals," says Commissioner Dan-
el C. Roper.
"Every person can be sure of
a square deal. No person is ex-
pected to pay more than his
share of tax. His share is de-
termined solely by the amount
and nature of his net income for
1918, as defined in the law.
"Abatement petitions are dealt
with open-mindedly. Refunds
will be made in every case
where too much tax is errone-
ously collected.
"The Income Tax is 'on the
level' all the way through."

War Council on Retirement Announces Cash and Supplies Contributed.
WORKERS WILL "CARRY ON."
Five Big Societies in World Wide Plan.
H. P. Davison Heads International American Red Cross Commission.
Dr. Livingston Farrand Permanent Leader of Peace Organization.
Washington.—(Special.)—Henry P. Davison as chairman issues the following statement on behalf of the War Council of the American Red Cross: "To the American People:
"The War Council of the American Red Cross appointed by President Wilson on May 10, 1917, to carry on the work of the American Red Cross during the war, at their request and by vote of the Central Committee, ceased at midnight, February 28.
"I immediately the armistice was signed the War Council instituted studies to determine when the strictly war work of the organization would have been sufficiently matured to enable the direction of affairs to be resumed by the permanent staff. Henry P. Davison, being in Paris when the armistice was signed, summoned a conference of the heads of all the Red Cross Commissions in Europe to canvass the situation. After considering all the factors it was concluded to make the transition on March 1. The very fortunate choice of Dr. Livingston Farrand as the new chairman of the Central Committee, and thereby the permanent chief executive of the Red Cross, makes possible the consummation of this plan under the most favorable conditions.
"Detailed reports to Congress and a complete audit of its accounts by the War Department will constitute the final record of Red Cross activity during the war. Although it has been the rule to make public all expenditures when authorized and to give detailed information relative to all work undertaken, the War Council in turning over its responsibilities to Dr. Farrand and his associates desire to give a brief resume of Red Cross war time activities to the American people, to whom the Red Cross belong, and whose generous contributions have made possible all that has been accomplished.
"During the past nearly twenty-one months the American people have given in cash and supplies to the American Red Cross more than $400,000,000. No value can be placed upon the contributions of service which have been given without stint and oftentimes at great sacrifice by millions of our people.
"The effort of the American Red Cross in this war has constituted by far the largest voluntary gifts of money, of hand and heart, ever contributed purely for the relief of human suffering. Through the Red 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 entitled to congratulate himself. No thanks from anyone could be equal in value to the self satisfaction everyone should feel for the part taken. Fully 8,000,000 American women have asserted themselves in Red Cross service.
Has Over 17,000,000 Adult Members.
"When we entered the war the American Red Cross had about 500,000 members. Today, as the result of the recent Christmas membership Roll Call, there are upwards of 17,000,000 full paid members outside of the members of the Junior Red Cross, numbering perhaps 9,000,000 school children additional.
"The chief effort of the Red Cross during the war has been to care for our men in service and to aid our army and navy wherever the Red Cross may be called on to assist. As to this phase of the work Surgeon General Ireland of the U. S. Army recently said: 'The Red Cross has been an enterprise as vast as the war itself. From the beginning it has done those things which the Army Medical Corps wanted done, but could not do itself.'
"The Red Cross endeavor in France has naturally been upon an exceptionally large scale where service has been rendered to the American Army and to the French Army and the French people as well, the latter particularly during the trying period when the Allied World was waiting for the American Army to arise in force and power. Hospital emergency service for our army in France has greatly diminished, but the Red Cross is still being called upon for service upon a large scale in the great base hospitals, where thousands of American sick and wounded are still receiving attention. At these hospitals the Red Cross supplies huts and facilities for the amusement and recreation of the men as they become convalescent. Our Army of Occupation in Germany was followed with Medical units prepared to render the same emergency aid and supply service which was the primary business of the Red Cross during hostilities. The Army Canteen service along the lines of travel has
have increased since the armistice, for work among the French people, now that hostilities have ceased, the French themselves naturally prefer as far as possible to provide for their own. It has accordingly been determined that the guiding principle of Red Cross policy in France henceforth shall be to have punctilious regard to its every responsibility, but to direct its efforts primarily to assist French relief societies. The liberated and devastated regions of France have been divided by the government into small districts, each officially assigned to a designated French relief organization.
"The American Red Cross work in France was initiated by a commission of eighteen men who landed on French shores June 13, 1917. Since then some 9,000 persons have been upon the rolls in France, of whom 7,000 were actively engaged when the armies was signed. An indication of the present scale of the work will be obtained from the fact that the services of 6,000 persons are still required.
"Our American Expeditionary Force having largely evacuated England, the activities of the Red Cross Commission there are naturally upon a diminishing scale period. Active operations are still in progress in Archangel and Siberla.
"The work in Italy has been almost entirely on behalf of the civilian population of that country. In the critical hours of Italy's struggle the American people, through their Red Cross, sent a practical message of sympathy and relief, for which the government and people of Italy have never ceased to express their gratitude.
Supplies and Personnel to Near East,
"The occasion for such concentration of effort in Italy, England, Belgium and even in France having naturally and normally diminished, it has been possible to divert supplies and personnel in large measure to the aid of those people in the Near East who have hitherto been inaccessible to outside assistance, but whose sufferings have been upon an appalling scale. The needs of these peoples are so vast that government alone can meet them, but the American Red Cross is making an effort to relieve immediately the more acute distress.
"An extensive group of American workers has been dispatched to carry vitally needed supplies, and to work this winter in the various Balkan countries. In order to co-ordinate their activities, a Balkan commission has been established, with headquarters at Rome, Italy, from which point alone all the Balkan centers can be reached promptly.
"A commission has just reached Poland with doctors and nurses, medical supplies, and food for sick children and invalids. An American Red Cross Commission has also been appointed to aid in relieving the suffering of Russian prisoners still confined in German prison camps.
"An important commission is still working in Palestine. Through the war special co-operation has been given to the Armenian and Syrian Relief Commission, which was the only agency able to carry relief in the interior of Turkish dominations.
Red Cross Will Continue.
Red 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 daily 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 experience 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 that so long as there is an American army in the field the Red Cross will have a special function to perform.
"Nothing could be of greater importance to the American Red Cross than the plans just set in motion by the five great Red Cross societies of the world to develop a program of extended activities in the interest of humanity. The conception involves not alone efforts to relieve human suffering, but to prevent it; not alone 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 throughout the world. It is a program both ideal and practical. Ideal in that its supreme aim is nothing less than veritable "Peace on earth good will to men," and practical in that it seeks to take means and measures which are actually available and make them effective in meeting without delay the crisis which is daily recurrent in the lives of all peoples.
"For accomplishning its mission in the years of peace which must lie ahead of us the Red Cross will require the ablest possible leadership, and must enjoy the continued support, sympathy, and participation in its work 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 of the organization. The unstinted fashion in which all our people gave of themselves throughout the war is the best assurance that our Red Cross will continue to receive that co-operation which will make its work a source of pride and inspiration to every American."
Mr. Davison, as chairman of the International Commission of the American Red Cross, has undertaken to represent the American Red Cross in the preparation of the program for extended Red Cross activities, and will spend the next several months in Europe in consultation with other Red Cross societies for that purpose.
