half of (be war council, the organiza
tion on (he ere of IU annual enroll
ment of members during the Third
Red Cross Rail Call, Nor ember 2 to

nun minions given It by the Ameri

nd our allies. The statement la, in
part, as follows:
"The war council of the American
Red Cross Is now prepared to make a
complete amounting to the American:
people of money contributed and ex
pended, as well as the work done by
the American Red Cross during the
period la which the war council was
In control of Its affairs. The war
council was appointed May 19, 1919,
and went out of existence February
28, 1919. -
it was the practice of the w
council to gle complete publicity to
Its policies and finances, but It la only
now" that a picture of the war period
aa a whole can be presented. It la
the feeling of the war council that a
report In this summarized form should
be made directly to the public which
provided the money and gave the ef
fort which made the American Red
Cross a success.
"A statement of the American Red
Cross effort and finances since the
war council relinquished Its control
will be made to the public through
the executive committee, and It Is Im
portant, therefore, that the fact thai
this report covers the period only until
March 1, should be carefully noted."
