It Is Time Again The universal organization of the American people is again going to the nation for funds to support its great and varied humanitarian work in the twelve months beginning July. 1 We call the American Red Cross the people's ‘‘universal” organiza tion because its services are avail able to all who need them: because anyone who wishes to serve can join the ranks of its volunteers: be cause it's the one club that doesn’t set some special qualification for membership. The banker's son in the Army in Korea, confronted with a family emergency, has the same access to the Red Cross field director’s serv ices as his fellow-soldier, the share cropper's son Their mothers facuig serious surgical operations, have the same right to receive Red Cross collected blood The industrialist whose home is blasted by a tornado may join his humblest employee in 1 a Red Cross shelter. There is something in the Red i Cross for everyone. Those who are fortunate enough not to need its emergency services may avail themselves of its very useful- -and i free—courses in first aid. water : safe*v, and home nursing. The sick and the infirm who cannot take ad | vantage of these are served by Red Cross volunteers in hospitals and •other institutions.
