One field of Red Cross service alone,
that of assisting disabled veterans of
tha World War, entuils expenditures
$4,000,i sk) greater than the aggregate
receipts Of the Annual Roll Call of
1020, the American Red Cross an
nounces In a stutement urging a wide
spread Increase In membership at the
Annual Boll Call, November 11 to 24.
At the present time National Head
quarters and the nation-wide chain of
Chapters of the Bed cross la spend
ing approximately $10,000,000 annual
ly for the relief of dlsuhled ex-service
men and their families, while the ag
gregate receipts from last year's Roll
Call were approximately $IVX0,000.
It Is In the 2,289 of the 3,000 Red
Cross Chapters which still are helping
solve the veteran's problem of adjust
ing himself to a normal civilian status
that the greater part of the cost of this
service Is borne. Of the total sum
spent for veterans' relief last year,
National Headquarters expended a to
tal of more than $2,000,000, while the
remaining disbursement of approxi
mately $7,000,000 represents the con
tribution of Chapters In this country
wide effort to assist the Government
In providing the aid sorely needed by
these men and their families.
An Ever Expanding Problem
That the problem of the disabled
service man Is ever-expanding and
probably will not reach the peak he
fore 1925, Is the assertion of well-informed
Government officials and that
2,.'l!l7 Red Cross Chapters regurd it
a.i their most Important work Is evi
dence that the expansion Is In nowise
confined to a particular section but Is,
on the contrary, nation-wide. At the
end of the fiscal year, June 30, 1921,
there were MJJOO disabled service men
In the 1,092 United States Public
Health Service, Contract nnd Govern
ment Hospitals and Soldiers Homes,
nnd that number Is Increasing at a
rate of 1,000 a month.
Thousands of these men receiving
medical treatment, compensation and
vocational training from the Govern
ment today, started their elTorts to
obtain them through the Red Cross
Chapter. The Chapter, acting ns the
disabled man's agent In claims ngainst
the Government, Informs the man as to
the procedure necessary to gain for
him that which Is provided him by
Federal statute. His applications for
compensation, medical treatment and
training are properly filed with the aid
of the Red Cross Chapter,
Many Forms of Assistance
If there Is delay before the man's
claim la acted upon, the Red Cross
'Chapter lends the mnn money to meet
the imperative needs of himself nnd
his dependents.
M.ist vital to the man's gaining full
beiu'lit from the Government's vine is
keeping his mind free from worry about
his home. Keeping the veteran's fam
ily from hardship of every kind and
Informing him of Its welfare Is an
other province of the Chapter, Free
from fear on this score, the man's re
Boverj and advancement usually Is
reol L '
Every month during the last yenr,
the Vmerican Red Cross has given
Mrs lee of one kind or another to nn
average of 129,21.1 former service men
and their families. An indication of
the i T ent of the faith reposed In the
Rod cross Chapter Is to he found In
the fact that there were H1KD34 re
questv for friendly aid In the solution
of peraosej problems.
448 Workers in Hospitals

The English
also laid
claim to this
territory and .Included It In the
grant to North Carolina. Hut
It was the French who first set
tled her- I'M' tv j In 1702 Fort
St. Louis on Mobile Hay and
fUlrttm the town of Mobile nine
years later. Mobile was for
many years the capital of Louisi
ana. France In 1703 ceded the
territory east of the Mississippi
to Kugland and the northern part
of the present State of Alabama
was joined to the Illinois terri
tory. The southern portion was
knovrn as West Florida. Serious
conflict with the Indians was
kept up for many years In fact, j
even as late ns 1812. there was
M uprising of the Creeks which
r. ;iltcd in terrible atrocities and j
massacres, j
Luring the Revolution West j
Florida remained loyal to Kng- !
land, but was selced by Spain j
only to be turned over to the j
I'nlted States tn 1813. This Mo- j
bile section was then added to j
the northern district and the j
State of Alabama was formed
and became the twenty-second t
state of the Cnion in 1MH.
The meaning of the name Ala
bama is variously Interpreted.
It was the name of an Indian
tribe which Inhabited this ter
ritory at the time of be Soto's
first Ttalt. After this tribe the
river was named and the state
was called Alabama after the
river. The Indian word was pup-r-'Md
to mean "Here we rest."
and these words are used oo the
states coat of arms, but thts In
terpretation is doubtful and its
real meaning ts uncertain. Ala
