‘BUNK: SHOUTS PAYNE OF RAP AT RED CROSS Chairman Snorts, Curses, Denies All American Mercury Charges. ■ H*r<l Nmpipr ACianre SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 23 “B-u-n-fc! Bunk! ' Thu* indignantly did John Barton Pavne. chairman of the American Rod Cross, d* >rr:Oe the American Mercury a attack on the Red Cross as he landed here from the Orient.

Confronted with the magazine artirle the usually placid Pavne snorted in anger and uttered two ‘ damns' and a ■'hell.*' •‘The facts are unfounded—distorted!’ he shouted. "It is a flock of lies—lies!” Discussing the charge that the Red Cross was in the ‘hands of a clique of bankers, the most prominent of whom is J. P. Morgan.” he said; ‘The writer of the article is the only one who is sure that they are Morgan interests. He should have investigated. He didn't. of course. 'Many of our directors are bankers. But their interest is the Red Cross. They don t bring their own businesses into the Red Cross. ' Compare Red Cross directors to the trustees of a university.

The Red Cross is a humanitarian organization.” The Mercury charged that thousands of American children were suffering from malnutrition and that the Red Cross recognized this fact, but refused aid, merely recommending powdered yeast. Yet. the article continued, the Red Cross had $4 000 000 put away for war purposes. •Certainly we have that sum in

reserve.” snapped Payne. ‘lt’s a preparedness measure. We want to be ready to go to work if a war arises.” The Mercury charged that Red Crass nurses were forced to sign an oath in which they agreed to defend their country—which, according to the maeazine made them possible combatants. "That is a government ruling, not a Red Crass edict,” said Payne. The government comes first. "So the Mercury recommends a congressional investigation? ‘ Fine. We have a clean slate.
