NASSAU COUNTY REVIEW ■ i TH RED CROSS DRIVE WOV. 11th C k u raan of the Nsssao County Chapter Makes State ment to Citizens The following statement was made this week by Mrs. H. P. Davison, chairman of the Red, Croes: The time has arrived to prepare for the fourth Red Gross roll call, which ■will take place from November 11, Armistice Day, to the 25th, Thanks giving Day. x As you know, the call is not pri marily to raise money, but to keep up the membership. I am confident that you will be delighted to have this op portunity to re-enroll as a member of the Red Cross. The roll (Sail ia a very important annual function of the or ganization, and those who have been the real backbone of its work ;in the past can be relied upon, I am sure, to take this responsibility again this year. The funds raised will be used to carry on the peace-time program which is a very large, far-reaching and important one. The after-problems of the war are still with us in connection with the dis abled soldier. Supplies Needed It is absolutely necessary that there should be reserve supplies for any large local national or international disaster. The Red Cross, being an emergency organization, is in position to help work out many problems of vital importance to the welfare of the human race, both by demonstrating the value of certain activities and by stimulating other organizations which are already carrying them on in a practical way. The great emphasis for the future is to be laid upon health. Because of the great loss of life during the war, the whole world must concentrate on this problem, both here and abroad, so that we can assure, as far as is scientifically possible, a future nor mal and healthy race. I wonder if you realize what Nas sau County is trying to do along these lines through our own organization. You are undoubtedly familiar with the dental work of the Junior Red Cross which has been and is demon strating, with the full and enthusias tic co-operation of the Board of Health and the Board of Education, what is needed among school children. Through the mobile dental ambulance, with dentists and full equipment, ev en the most remote rural districts are being cared for. We hope to have the entire county covered by the end of the year. This work Is now' very near ly self-supporting, but if the Red Croes had not made it possible as a demonstration it would not have been done. In their work in tile schools, the dentists aye co-operating with the school nurses and, in this connection, I should like to remind you of the splendid program which our Red Cross Nursing Committee of Nassau ty h that_ Nas Coun- every school and every commun ity in the county shall be shown the advantage of having a school and a community nurse. For this purpose, the Executive Committee of the Chap ter authorized the Nursing Committee to supply nurses at the expense of the Red Cross as rapidly as ,they can be secured, for every school and community which are without such service this work to be demonstrative and educational, with the hope that the communities and schools would themselves see the -advantage of sup porting their own nurse. Health Centers In the spring, a meeting—represen tative of all the welfare organizations in the county—was held for the pur pose of initiating a plan of co-opera tion whereby the county as a whole would be covered by the various agen cies without overlapping among them. At this meeting a committee of five was appointed to consider this matter A careful investigation was made by experts and a very enlightening re port is now ready and should be most helpful in solving this problem. In this report it was recommended that the Red Cross should establish county health centres in strategic points along the lines of carefully worked out plans. This is being considered at the pres ent time, and Dr. Richard Derby, son- in-law of the late Col. Roosevelt, has accepted the chairmanship of the Bed Cross Health Service Committee in Nassau County. This work will be carried on with the full understand ing and co-operation of the local doc tors, Board of Health and Board of Education. The motor corpsis still in existence on reserve duty and is constantly helping in situations where no other facility of meeting emergencies is available. John J. Watson, jr., has kindly con sented to act as chairman of the 'roll call and I hope that you will give him all the help possible in your district. ------------- ♦ ------------ FACTS FOR LEGION AIRES New York State has 8916 men in the National Guard.
