A wartime feature describes Red Cross efforts to care for soldiers and families. It details canteens at train depots and camps, ambulance services, convalescent homes, home service for dependents, and a vast network in France to support American troops. The piece emphasizes organization across cantonments, railways, and overseas operations to maintain morale and health.
The Red Cross runs rolling canteens behind front lines supplying hot or cold drinks, assists wounded soldiers with bandages, follows to hospitals, and relays family news. It supplies prisoners in Germany via Berne warehouses with regular food parcels, and maintains home contact, funds, and rehabilitation programs. Secretary Baker praises its foresight and expands wartime services as part of a five part announcement series.
