More Workers
Are Needed
By Red Cross
European Units To Be Abroad
For Additional Year; Service
Will Be Expanded in Pacific
Additional Red Cross workers are
urgently needed for service in this
country and overseas, according to
Mrs. Wells Bennett, chairman of the
county Red Cross personnel recruit-
ment committee.
Mrs. Bennett has recently returned
from a Red Cross meeting in St.
Louis, where the current personnel
needs of the Red Cross were discuss-
ed by representatives of the national
office.
"The Red Cross expects to stay
in Europe for at least a year long-
er," Mrs. Bennett said, "And in-
creased demands upon Red Cross
recreation and welfare services are
expected as a result of the Army's
anti-fraternization policy, which is
certain to create a morale problem
among troops remaining in Eur-
op,'.
"Expansion of Red Cross services
in the Pacific is expected with the
progress of the war against Japan,
and Red Cross field directors and
hospital workers will accompany any
mass troop movements from Europe
to other theaters," the chairman said.
In addition to the need for per-
sonnel overseas, there is a great de-
mand for more workers in our hos-
pitals in this country because of the
rapid increase in the number of pa-
tients returning from the war thea-
ters, according to Mrs. Bennett.
Positions available for women in-
clude recreation workers, social work-
ers, and staff aides in the United
States, and stenographers, social wor-
kers, and recreation workers for
overseas duty. Negro staff assistants
for overseas duty are especially need-
ed.
Applicants must be citizens of
the United States, fu nish a cei -
tificate of availability from the War
Manpower Commission, aimd must
pass a physical examinatio. Wo-
nen applying for overseas Duty
must be between the age of 23 and
35, and for service in the United
States between the age of 25 and
50.

Mrs. Bennett may be made by calling

quarters, 25546.
