Red Cross aids wounded soldiers and postwar relief
The Red Cross is tasked by the U S government to locate disabled veterans and offer free hospital treatment and compensation through public health institutions. About 50 000 veterans are unable to work, but only 4 000 have applied. The organization explains misapprehensions keep ex servicemen from receiving benefits and urges application at local Red Cross chapters for hospital admission after medical exam. The effort is part of postwar relief funding and public health support.

Red Cross Advances 50 000 to Disabled Soldiers
The American Red Cross has lent about 50 000 pounds to roughly 4 000 disabled soldiers for personal uses while they settle affairs with the federal board for vocational training. The loans are not charity but part of the Red Cross war obligation, with officers coordinating with vocational, public health, and district staff to assist when checks fail or during gaps before training starts.
