THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, RICHMOND, IND., THURSDAY, OCT. 26, 1922.

RED CROSS ACTIVITIES III COUNTY CONDUCTED IN EFFICIENT MANNER (Contlnusd from Pago One) was early announced that In no instance should the Red Cross undertake work alrealy being done by other organizations. "With these facts in mind it has been the policy of the local chapter since the close of the war to attempt to function in ways that would be helpful and in fields that were not bein covered by any other organization. Home Service "The home service work for soldiers and their families was of course continued and in order to save overhead

expense, office rent, etc., an arrange

ment was effected with the Social Service Bureau of Richmond whereby this

work is conducted by them, the chap

ter paying them a fixed sum eacn month for administration and furnishing funds for relief where this is necessary. This arrangement has proved most satisfactory and- has since been adopted in many other cities. Public Health "In the field of public health the Social Service Bureau was already functioning so far as Richmond itself was concerned, so that the organization of public health activity in the county outside of the city seemed to be our logical field and for one year a public health nurse was employed at full time and the Modern Health Cru

sade was organized in practically a'.I

the county schools and baby clinics, health talks and such other, public health work as seemed advisable was

conducted throughout the county. At

the end of the year on account of the

shortage of funds and also in the belief that this activity should be ceni ralized so far as possible, an arrange

ment was effected with the Social Ser

vice Bureau whereby they sell to the Red Cross at actual cost Che time of one of their nurses for two days

eek and this work has been kept up throughout the county in this wav -for the paet year. As the automobile

owned by the chapter would! have been

idle much of the time if used onlv by the nurse on the days sfie worked

for the Red Cross, it was . therefore

sold to the Social Service Bureau and its cost used as a credit against the '. charge for the nurse's time. The chap- '. H-r pays In addition to ttase nurse's ; lime, one dollar per day fir the up- ; keep and depreciation of the automo blip on the days that it in used in , Red Cross work. This arrangement " has proved most satisfactory and has avoided the friction and duplication : usually resulting where nursing activi- . ties are conducted by separate organizations. . . Junior Red Cross. "The Junior Red Cross activities have had to be much restriafipd on ac

count of the lack of funds, but have been conducted in the city schools under the direction of Miss Payne, and the results have been of distinct value in fostering a 'patriotic spirit and an interest in gmeral human welfare on the part of the children. Tbe modern health crusade in the conury is carried on in the form of a Jtmior Red Cross activity in order to het,p to sustain the interest of the children in the Red Cross organization. It So regretfd that the garden work in Richmond had to be omitted this year for lack of funds. "In our own chapter as in jnost others with the close of the war. the problem of raising adequate fundta became very serious, but we were in a better position than many chapters as we had ; on hand between seven and eight ; thousand dollars. War funds of course ' could not be continued1 after tine close of the war and the last membershii.

campaign in November, 1920, only af-

. forded about $1,600 for the uee af the

chapter while the minimum chapter

budget exceeded $6,000. , During this year an effort was made to iorganize a community chest, and it was de- ". cided that the chapter should become a member of the proposed welfare leasrue, when it was perfected. With ihis plan in view no membership campaign was held in the fall of 1!21. and - o there were technically no members in 1922 untli after the Welfare league campaign last summer. The arrangement that was worked out. which seemed to be fair to all partfes was

that every subscriber of $10 or more t-hould have SI of his subscription set aside as a Rod Cross membership: 50 cents of which will be sent to the N:- ', tional Red Cross as its share of the membership fee. The Welfare league in addition to setting aside enough . money to cover the membership fees, . improved our budget of about six

thousand dollars, and although thp j .'mount raised by the league was only j about SO per cent of its budget, we ;

have bein able by being cxtremely caieful to keep within the funds ac- ' tually received and will be able to fir. ish the calendar year with only a very .slight deficit. "II iri felt that the policy of the chapter' In combining its activities v.i;h the Social Service bureau where it was possible to do so with no sac

rifice of efficiency, and with a great reduction in administrative expense and participation in the Welfare league in order to reduce the cost of raising the necessary funds are both based on sound principles and should be - continued. Although other' activities might have been desirable, it seemed necessary on account of the limited funds to select only those which were most essenetial and most valuable to the welfare of the com munity at large." ' Mrs. Rom Gives Report Mrs, U. F. Ross, chairman of the Home Service section submitted the following report for the 12 months ending August 31, 1922: "The work for ex-service men has been conducted for the Chapter by the Social Service Bureau,' the Chapter paying for this service. The committee having the work in charge for the year ending, August 31. 1922 was com

posed of nine directors of the bureau, five of whom were directors of the Red Cross Chapter and four members of the Harry Ray Post. American Le

gion. The members representing the

Board of Directors of the Wavne Coun

ty Chapter were: Howard A. Dill, Mrs, John H. Johnson, Dr. J. J. Rae, Dr. L,

r. itoss, airs, u. t . Ross.

"Members of Harry Ray Post. Ameri

can Legion were: Benjamin A. Ball,

Horatio X. Land. Mrs. Charles N. Cook.

Mrs. EH a Englebert.

This committee held several meetings during the year and the Executive Secretary had frequent conferences With the chairman and other

members of the committee. "The department concentrated its efforts in behalf of disabled ex-service men who had claims on the Government In the main, the work fell into two groups, viz.: compensable men with dependents and compensable men without dependents. The activities may be divided into two general classes service and relief. Service. "Considerable time was spent in preparing compensation claims, and in that connection rounding up witnesses, getting additional medical evidence from comrades, physicians and former employers. Assistance was given in filing other state's bonus, vocational training, certificates of service, back pay in veteran's bureau and hospitalization. At the request of army officials investigation was made of home conditions of men endeavoring to procure discharge from service on account

oi aepenaency; various kinds ot investigations were made for the U. S. Veteran's bureau, U. S. public health service hospitals, the National Red Cross, Red Cross chapters in various states and other agencies. Many affidavits were prepared, more than 2,000 letters were written and numerous

telegrams were sent. The executive

secretary made two visits to the sub

district office of the Veteran's bureau

at Dayton and held frequent conferences with representatives of the Vet

eran's bureau in the office of the chap

ter, and from time to lime notified ex service men to meet government of facials' at the office. .

"The following is an exact record of

a typical day at the ottice: A dis

abled man came in to file for compen

sation for disability. Necessary papers

were prepared for him. Then came a man who wanted assistance in obtain

ing dental care from the government

He claimed that the trouble with hia teeth was traceable to service in the army. Another asked help in getting vocational training. He was unable to follow his pre-war vocation. A man

who was drawing compensation called saying that his compensation check

for the month had not been received and asked that the department write

about it for him. Next a man who wanted a letter written for him. He was filing a claim for reimbursement of railroad fare used in connection with trip to district office, Veteran's bureau for pnysicial examination. Two witnesses called to sign affidavit for man who was trying to connect his disability with his army service. A man who was getting vocational train

ing under the government called for information. Then a man asked for a loan until his compensation check came. It was granted. Several letters were received and answered.' . "The cost of communication for the year including postage, telegrams and telephone was $75. S3. "Material relief was mafte necessary because of illness. Tuberculosis was

the chief cause of disability. Some of

these men had not been awarded compensation, therefore the care of both the man and family were essential.' The amount spent for relief totaled

$1,835.20. While the greater part of

this amount was granted as loans, only

$44b.04 or about one-fourth had been

refunded at the close of the fiscal

year. In. a few cases a regular weekly allowance was made necessary until compensation was received. One of

these was a man who was unable to work because of tuberculosis. He had a wife and a baby a few months old. The baby was sick a great deal of the time; making it impossible for the wife to work. During the first eight

months of the year relief to the

amount of $546.66 was given. In May, a check for more than $700 for back compensation was received from the Government. Upon receipt of the compensation check, the man left the

Government hospital, and his whereabouts was not known for more than two months. When found most of the money had been spent. The case was referred to the Veteran's Bureau.

"A single, homeless man who had

tuberculosis and was not drawing com

pensation was given regular assistance during the greater part of the winter. Other tuberculous men and their families were given financial assistance regularly for shorter periods. Transients Attend. "Several ex-service men from Wayne County were confined in government hospitals in different parts of the country and were in need because of delays in compensation, Appeals were received from Red Cross workers in those hospitals for incidental needs of our men. "An unusual number of transients received attention. This was due in part

to the general industrial depression

throughout the country last winter.

Restlessness, a result of the war was

another contributing cause. Emergen

cy relief, i. e. meals or lodging or both, was furnished while communication

was being established between the home chapter and our office. The to

tal amount paid out for non-resident ex-service men was $191.48, a part of

this was returned by home chapters

Two hundred and forty-six men

were given service. The calls at the

office by ex-service men numbered 796.

A total of $3,511.03 was expended by

the Home Service Section during the

twelve months. Of this amount, $1,835.20 was for relief, $75.83 for tele

grams, . telephone and postage, and $1600 for administration clerical help, etc." A report of the public health nursing work done in the county outside of the city was given by Mis Katherine Daub, chapter nurse. It follows: 'Tn the early part of the year the Wayne county chapter made arrange ments with the Social Service Bureau to secure the service of one of its nurses two days a week in the county outside of Richmond, the chapter to

pay for the service. Miss Katherine Daub, who had been with the bureau since January, 1921, and was working

part time in Richmond schools, was given this work. She began work De

cember 13 and since that time has

spent 6514 days in the field.

"The Modern "Health Crusade work

consumed a greater part of the time

during the school year. Fourteen ot

the fifteen townships, and 42 of the

48 township schools were represented

in this work. Approximately 1,300

children were enrolled in the Modern

Health Crusade during the last school

year. The nurse made 108 visits to

the schools. Brief talks on health wer?

made from time to time when visiting

Ihe schools in connection with th

Modern Health Crusade, but eight definite health talks, using posters, etc., were made to school children. A puppet health play was given in six schools. - Children Examined "In Cambridge City and Williamsburg school children were weighed, measured and given vision and hearing tests. In Cambridge City, 221 children were examined and in Williamsburg 118. Mrs. Carl Kaufman assisted in Cambridge City, and Miss Ruth Holzapfel at Williamsburg. Centerville and
