ending February'28. *
There are 1,117 army and navy
camps and stations covered by
American Red Cross service and the
number of cases handled by field
directors at these camps and stations
far servicemen, ex-servicemen, and
their families reached almost five
million. The number of cases handled
| by the home ’ service secretaries
i amounted to close to four million.
| More than a million loans and gi ants
were given to service men and wo
men both here and abroad.
The Red Cross collected five mil
lion pints of blood, processed it, and
as plasma, packed and shipped it i
overseas. The average monthly pro
duction of surgical dressings is over
sixty-four million. Ten and* a half
million packages were packed by the
Red Cross and shipped to American
prisoners of war confined in German
and Japanese prisons. i
For the well-being of our men and
women overseas the Red Cross main

In the last year 259 disasters have,
occurred in which 68,000 persons
have needed and obtained relief from
the Red Cross, the first agency, to,
reach the comrtiunity stricken by
floods, fire, explosions, tornado, and I
so forth. The Canteen Corps served,
to disaster sufferers, servicemen and
others, thirty million meals. And all
this is just a partial list of what the j
Red Cross has done all over the
world.
In the year 1945, no one needs toi
be told what the Red Cross does. To
day we are interested in how much
it does, and that’s why these figures
speak briefly but eloquently of what
we are doing through, the Red Cross
