Grants Pass Doctor Opens Office Here Red Cross Is International Organization Membership Campaign Now On; Funds H elp in M a jo r Disasters Anywhere in the W orld. W ith the annual cainpaigu fo r Bed Cross membership underway, the following story of the far- reaching influence of this inter national organization is fin e ly : Just as in time ut w ar the emblem of the Bed Cross is a guarantee of protection, so in time of peace this emblem is a signal of friendship and good w ill wherever its wearer may wander in civilized lands. Many travelers have had the same exped ience as Red Cross officials when far from home, they have been s o costed in a friendly way by those who have recognised Ihe Red Cross in the coat lapel. In any country, no matter how remote, our workers have found the sign of the Red Cross an invitation to friendly ad vances and offers of good services. The international Red Cross o r ganization is the League of Red Cross societies, w ith its bead- quarters in Paris. The League was founded in 1919 under the auspices of the American Red Cross and the leadership of Henry P. Davison. It has always pursued the policy of choosing as its head the chairman of the American Red Cross, and in accordance w ith this custom Judge John Barton Payne continues a» chairman of the Board of Governors of Ihe League, and gives ranch careful attention to the details o f the organisation’s program. In October, 1932, he attended and pre sided over the biennial meeting o f the board held in Paris. The next board meeting w ill be held la Japan this October in conjunction with the Fifteentth International Conferneet o( tnc Red Cross. The American response to the coll of distress from outside our own borders when great calamities oc cur has become a matter of w o rld wide knowledge. Naturally our at tention and interest are more acute ly centered in the disasters which affect our own people. But w h ile meeting adequately the immense and steadily growing demands fo r disaster relief here at home the Red Cross has not permitted itself to forget the needs of its neighbors, and through this agency American generosity has an arm long enough to reach into the farthest corners of the earth.
