Red Cross Drive Endorsed by Basin State Bank Official
In a discussion with Basin State Bank executive H. H. Hime, the Red Cross drive set to begin Monday May 20 is defended as an all American, largely volunteer organization. It is authorized by Congress, praised by President Wilson, and audited by the War department with ongoing public reports. The text emphasizes war and civilian relief, support for wounded soldiers, orphans, tuberculusis care, and global disaster aid, noting the Red Cross fund sustains relief with at least 1.02 dollars returned for every dollar contributed.
