We Are the Red Cross
What does the Red Cross mean to us?
Suppose you child came home from school tomorrow, threw down his hooks and excitedly began to relate a tale of neighborhood tragedy and fear.
“Daddy! Jimmy Jones has polio. The doctor says he won’t be able to play baseball on ohr team next year. Do you think he will ever play with us again?”
You’d probably grasp for the best protection possible to prevent your son, or daughter, from being stricken with paralysis in the same way. That's where, the Red Cross comes in —with gamma globulin—and that’s just one of the many things that Red Cross means to you, your neighbor and the people who work around you. •• _The Red Cross means much more to you—and your gift and membership in Red Cross means aid to the. n^edy of war and natural disasters; of aid to the sick; succor and guidance to the war widow and her child.
The Korean War is over. But thousands of those who fought it will lie for a long time in hospitals, some for the rest of their lives. The widows and children ...of some who fought it still bear the grief of conflict. The Red Cross is their com-* forter and guidance.
The family whose home and possessions go with the flood or fire finds the friendly symbol of the Red Cross there to aid them—but only so long as all of us support the services the symbol represents—for WOE ar ethe RED CROSS.
Your Red Cross membership contribution is the best possible insur-’ ance in time of well being against the tim? when tragedy strikes.
