RED CROSS NOTES
IN WAR'S WAKE
Maybe it seems a little soon to be
taking thought for "after the war"
. and yet, every industry, corpora:
tion, country and home is beginning
to ponder "what will come after."
So far as Canadian Red Cross is
concerned, the end of the war will
not be the end of effort. Front-line
service will ";become •diffusel—spread
out. The Occupied Countries of
Europe have been stripped to the
bone. Those people lucky enough to
have survived the blood bath of the
Nazis have emerged bereft of pos-
sessions. Their needs are boundless!.
Women who have turned their
hands selflessly and eagerly tothe
making of socks and sweaters and
hospital supplies and layettes • will
find' themselves faced with new de-
mands, on their time and effort. For
the supplies and comforts that go
out to the homeless in Europe most
assuredly must come from the men
and women in the Americas who
still have much to give!
It would be a sorry thing if after
the dust of actual combat had settl-
ed, voluntary service settled with it!
Our vision must be wider than that—
our sense of responsibility more en-
during.
Canadian. Red Cross has made an
enviable name among volunteer 'or-
ganizations. The red Cross on the
white' ground 'betokens certain (
standards of service high in the eyes
of all men. It is the privilege of all.I
"Red Crossers" now to keep the flag'
flying.
