bol of mercy and cpmfort for the
wounded and fur the dying and
for the prisoner of war it is the
only link that hinds and brings
hope for liberation to men who
might otherwise despair, and the
source •of wholesome food which
arrives in the Red Cross, food par

a boon to so many men in enemy

The achievements of the Red

fronts that precious
known as “Rlood Plasma” is a fine
record. This organization super
vises 400 bipod receiving centres

These are some of the tasks
which the Canadian Red Cross keeps
on doing with amazing precision
and success. In the last 5% years

Cross Campaign.
THE EUROPEAN WAR. is nearing its end. That is obvious. Many people, including members of
the Canadian Red Cross, have asked us what our job will be if the war should suddenly end.
We reply that we can only see ahead greater responsibilities than ever. Both in Europe and at home
the work of the Red Cross must go on. The war will not bring an end to suffering and want, to
the care of our Prisoners of War, to our Wounded, and to the millions whose homes and way of
life have been dislocated by strife.
We therefore feel that every Canadian has a right to some knowledge of what our responsibilities
will be in the event of peace, and just how we propose to discharge those responsibilities. We treat
each of our main activities under its respective heading.
/
PRISONERS OF WAR—With the end of hostilities our
Prisoners of War will automatically cease to be Pri
soners. Chaos and breakdown in Germany will prob
ably ensue. The German state will cease to care for
them. They will become wards of the Allied General
in command of the Occupation Forces. Transportation
will be difficult, and it will probably take a minimum
of six months to repatriate the 2,400,000 Canadian,
British and Allied Prisoners in German Camps. The
need of Prisoners’ Parcels and Medical Supplies will
be doubled. They will be distributed by the Allied
Command, and will play a vital part in feeding our
men pending repatriation. After the magnificent job we
have done during the last five years we cannot let our
boys in German prison camps down. Our Prisoners
in the Far East will also be a continuing responsibility.
We must carry on until every man is back home.
EUROPE'S STARVING MILLIONS—The job of feeding
Europe’s hungry millions is staggerng in its immen
sity. Over 17,000,000 humans have been torn from their
homes. Many have nowhere to rest their weary heads.
They are starving. Malnutrition is the rule rather than
the exception. There will be an urgent need for food,
clothing and medical supplies. The Red Cross in these
stricken countries are utterly dependent on their sister
societies for supplies to meet these dire needs. Can we
let them down? The Canadian Red Cross must go on!
BLOOD SERUM SERVICE—Red Cross Blood Serum has
saved countless lives in battle. The end of the war will
see the end of painful war wounds. The demand for
serum on the fighting fronts, except the Far East, will
cease. But the Red Cross Blood Serum Service should
be continued for civilian use. If the Red Cross makes
it freely available it can save thousands of the lives of
our own civilian citizens when war has ended.
OUTPOST HOSPITALS, CHILDREN’S CLINICS AND DISTRICT
NURSING SERVICE—This is part of the Red Cross service
to civilians in Canada. It is carried out in the sparsely
settled parts of the Dominion, and it must go on.
FIRST AID AND HOME NURSING SERVICE—One of the
finest peacetime activities of the Canadian Red Cross.
It is .truly a worth-while work and must go on.
TEACHING CANADIANS HOW TO BE BETTER NOURISHED
—There is important work yet to be done in the matter
of Nutrition. Thousands of Canadians are not eating the
proper food. Their health could be improved immeas
urably. The Canadian Red Cross has undertaken to
educate where education is necessary. This work must
go on.
RED CROSS WORK WITH OUR ARMED FORCES —Until
the last Canadian soldier has left Europe and has been
discharged from hospital, there will be important work
for the Red Cross to do. How long this will be we do
not know, but one thing we are certain of and that is
that every Canadian at home will want to make sure that
our boys will be as well looked after with the coming
of peace as they were in War. The Care of the wounded
both in Europe and Canada is a permanent responsi
bility which we cannot evade. No Canadian wants to
evade it. Here again the Red Cross must go on!
PREPARATION TO MEET EPIDEMIC OR DISASTER—In case
of these twin evils the Red Cross is always first on the
o job. For this reason alone the Red Cross must go on.
i JUNIOR RED CROSS—A great crusade of 900,000 Cana-
, dian school children for health and good citizenship* A
* work that must go on.
