Power of Red Cross Is '
Cited at Local Meeting
"There are many men who are alive today only through the
benefit of the Red Cross," Brig. Gen. Curtis T. Beecher, USMC
Ret, told members of the Jackson county chapter of Red Cross
at the chapter's 38th annual meeting in the Rogue Valley Country
club July 14.
General Beecher, who spent
much of World War II as a pris
oner of war after his capture on
Corrigedor by the Japanese,
credited Red Cross care for the
salvation of countless American
prisoners' lives. Red Cross food
packages, . so few arriving that
two men lived on a package for
two weeks, were almost the only i
sustenance, he said.
The mighty power which the
Red Cross derives from its vol
unteers who number 1,825,000,
ten times as many as paid work
ers was also discussed by Gen
eral Beecher. If Red Cross vol
unteers were paid at the mini
mum wage rate, he said, their
total salary would amount to
over four billion dollars annu
ally. Even with such a force of vol
unteer workers, General Beech
er declared, the Red Cross needs
more. Its chief problem, he de
clared, is a constant gap be
tween community resources and
community needs.
The speaker, who has since
retired from the U. S. Marine
corps to Eugene and now de
votes his time privately to Red
Cross work, was introduced by.
Mrs. Eugene Thomdike, chair
man. After General Beecher's
speech, newly elected Red Cross
chapter board members were an
nounced. They are Mrs. Edward
F. Bolt, Mrs. W. H. Hampton,
Mrs. Robert Keeney, Mrs. Mar
garet Burch, Miss Claire Hanley,
Dr. M. D. McGeary, Manville M.
Heisel, R. W. Gray, Leonard B.'
Mayf ield, Foster L. Hibbard and
Sidney E. Ainsworth.

man, Eugene Thorndike; first

son; second vice-chairman, El
liott Becken; third vice-chair
