RED CROSS GIVES " ANNUAL BUDGET $19,361,657 Allotted for Current Program of Relief : . and S’jervice. | } MILLIONS I;EI;_—VETERAN AID Medicalv Aid ﬁropean Children Will Cost $6,000,- * 000 This Year.

Washington.—Expenditures totalling $19,861,657 for carrying through Its program of relief and services in the United States and overseas are outlined in the budget of the American Red Cross for the current fiscal year. This total is more than $5,000,000 lower than the expenditure during the last fiscal year, whem the disbursements reached $24,402,741, it is announced at National Headquarters in a statement calling attention to the necessity of continued support of the ;organlzation by’ response to the Annual Roll Call, November 11 to 24, if‘the vital work of the soclety is to be effectively carried on. : Outstanding among the items of the doinestic budget is the appropriation }of $3,669,256 for work in behalf of the disabled ex-service man and his family. This appropriation represents the amount alloted to this work from National Headquarters only and does not take into consideration the mil- | lions being spent in chapters for relief of the World War veteran. It is {n the chapter that the-greater amount is spent in meeting this ebligation of the Red Cross, the announcement continues, as manifested by figures of the fiscal year 1920-1921 when "the total was approximately $9,000,000, of which $2,892,094 represented the dlsk;ursement of National Headquarters while the remainder was the chapters’ contribution to this field of Red Cross service. : | . Vast Work for Disabled

_ Chief among the sub-divisions of the appropriation for work with veterans is that which concerns itself with 'assistance te disabled men ‘and wemen in government hospitals. This item of $1,790,000, an increase of more than $500,000 over the appropriation for the same work in last year’s budget, will provide those personal serv‘ices for the disabled and their families which are indispensable to supplement those provided by the government. The director of the Veterans’ Bureau has recently expressed his desire that the Red Cross should continue and extend these ‘“humanizing services.” Other, items of the appropriation for veterans’ relief are proportionately increased. An additional appropriation of $469,600 has been made for Red Cross work in connection with regular Army and Navy hospitals and with the regular Army and Navy. For disaster relief, the Red Cross has set aside for the curreat twelve months an appropriation of $543,976, virtually doubling the appropriation for the same purpose for the fiscal ‘year 1920-1921. . “a : | More than $2,000,000 is provided for | service and assistance to the 3,600 \Red Cross chapters by the national - organizatien. ; Helping Destitute Children Othér items .of the domestic budget include $498,546 for miscellaneous activities, including contributions restricted for special purposes and $768,600 for management. KEach of these | items represents large reductions over | similar appropriations of the previous year. ' v b l

From a fund of $10,000,000, $5,000,000 of which was contributed through the European Relief Council campaign and $5,000,000 allotted by the Red Cross for child welfare work in Europe, there remains $8,765,108 still available, of which it s estimated that $6,000,000 will be required for this work during the eurrent year. For Red Cross participation in the Joint effort to relteve famine conditions in Russia, for final work in the China famine, for Junior Red Cross and other everseas activities including the ‘closing of the old general relief program in Europe $4,978,000 is made available. o s In announcing the national budget, the Red Cross makes It clear that the figures do not include chapter expenditures or place any cash estimate on ‘the invaluable service eof volunteers in chapters. e
