^10,000,000 AID" FOR VETERANS ? Red Cross Provides Friendly Service of Many Kinds to Army of Disabled. BULK OF WORK BY CHAPTERS 2,397 of These Are Helping ExService Men Obtain Benefits U. S. Provides. One lleld of Red Cross siervice alone, that of assisting disabled veterans of the World War, entails expenditures 194000,000 greater than the aggregate | receipts of the Annual Roll Call of 11820, the American Red Cross announce* in a statement urging a widespread Increase in membership at the 'Annual Roll Call, November 11 24. At the present time National Headquarters and the nation-wide chain of Chapters of the Red Cross is spend!lng approximately $10,000,000 annually for the relief of disabled ex-service men and their families, while the agigregate receipts from last year's Roll Call were approximately $6,000,000. It is in the 2,289 of the 3,600 Red Cross Chapters which still are helping solve the veteran's problem of adjusting himself to a normal civilian status that the greater part of the cost of this /i service is borne. Of the total sum i spent for veterans' relief last year, National Headquarters expended a total of more than $2,600,000, while the remaining disbursement of approxi mately $7,000,000 represents the contribution of Chapters in this countrywide effort to assist the Government In providing the aid sorely needed by these men and their families. An Ever Expanding Problem That the problem of the disabled service man. is ever-expanding and probably will not reach the peak before 1925, is the assertion of well-informed Government officials and that 2,397 Red Cross Chapters regard it as their most important work is evidence that the expansion is in nowise conilned to a particular section but is, on the contrary, nation-wide. At the end of the fiscal year, June 30, 1921, there were 26,300 disabled service men in the 1,692 United States Public Health Service, Contract and Government Hospitals and Soldiers Homes, and that number Is Increasing at a rate of 1,000 a month. Thousands of these men receiving medical treatment, compensation and vocational training from the Govern ment today, started their efforts to obtain them through the Red Cross Chapter. The Chapter, acting as the disabled man's agent in claims against the Government, informs the man as to the procedure necessary to gain for hfm that which is provided him by Federal statute. His applications for compensation, medical treatment and training are properly filed with the aid f the Red Cross Chapter. Many Forms of Assistance t If there is delay before the man's glaim is acted upon, the Red Cross Chapter lends the man money to meet j the imperative needs of himself andj his dependents. Most vital to the man's gaining f^ll benefit from the Government's care is keeping his mind free from worry about his home. Keeping the veteran's family from hardship of every kind and j informing him of Its welfare is an other ffrovince of the Chapter. Free from fear on this score, the man's recovery and advancement usually is rapid. Every month during the last year, the American Red Cross has given service of one kind or another to an average or i^zid iormer service men and their families. An indication of the extent of the faith reposed in the Red Cross Chapter is to be found in the fact that there were 356,544 re quests for friendly aid In the solution of personal problems. 448 Workers in Hospitals \ While the man prior to entering Government care deals largely with the Chapter, afterward he comes into contact with the service provided by National Headquarters. There are 448 Red Cross workers in the United {States Public Health Service and contract hospitals and other institutions in which these men are being cared for, whose duty is to provide for his recreation, help him with his compensation claims, keep him in touch with his family; in short, meeting his every need outside of that provided by the Government. While these are a few of the responsibilities of the National Organization, they are by no means all. Among other Red Cross accom pnsnmenis ior iue jetu cue.

It mode 32,495 loans totaling $450,000 to men taking vocational training, of which 85 per cent has been repaid. ! Lexington Pharmacy and Harmon I Drug Co. !
