REWARD. 8 11-8 13 71 PAGF 9-PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 11, 1971 The Red Cross, Fac t -Fiction Through television, everyone has seen Red Cross workers in the war zones, at floods, tor­ nadoes and other disasters. However, there have been and are, detractors who talk against the Red Cross. The following is that organization's answer to some of their charges to set the record straight. CHARGE: "With all that government money, they ought to do more". TRUTH: Although the Red Cross operates under federal auspices and charter, it is not a governmental institution and does not receive one dollar from the federal government. All of its money comes from citizens' contributions. CHARGE: "They use most of their money to create plush jobs for their administrators". TRUTH: The cost of ad­ ministration of the national organization is only thirteen cents, for every dollar and fund raising costs, of four cents. This is fantastically low when compared to other charities and governmental agencies. Many other charities have costs as high as 40 per cent. Reason: The salaries paid to Red Cross staff are uniformly lower than in most welfare agencies. The president gets thirty thousand a year for carrying a tremendous work load that would command a salary of three or four times as much in private industry. His salary is considerably less than a congressman and little more than local administrators of government relief programs. The real answer to this low cost is not only the dedication of the staff workers but the more than two million volunteer workers, McHenry Readi-Mix for 71 cents per pound. The animal weighed 1167 pounds and showed a gain of 2.98 lbs., per day. McHenry Ready Mix donated their purcha^ to the Woodstock Children's Home. The Angus Rate of Gain Champ brought 49 cents per pound for its owner Steve Schultz of Algonquin and was purchased by Laurel Haney. Dunham-Chemung and Rock' ford District Mutual Insurance Co. of Harvard paid 46 cents per pound for Julie Hughes' Rate of Gain Hereford. The highest price per pound paid for any beef at the auction was for a 945 pound steer which the McHenry County Livestock Feeders association purchased from Kathy Fritz of Harvard. It was donated by the association for the benefit of Lloyd Get- zelman to help defray expenses that occurred from a mishap at the Fair earlier in the week. Mr. and Mrs. Alex Mac Arthur of Strathmore Farms, Algonquin, paid $1 per pound for the animal. In the Swine division, David Walker of Marengo showed the 4-H Grand Champion Single Market Hog and received $3 per pound for the 176-pound animal. High bidder was the First Savings and Loan Association of Woodstock. Northern Illinois Realty purchased the 4-H Reserve Champion Single Market Hog from Bruce Richardson of Marengo at $1.25 per pound. Chris McKee of Marengo sold his Junior Reserve Grand Champ Single Market Hog to the Marengo State Bank. The 204 lb. animal brought 32 cents per pound. Bruce Richardson of Marengo had the 4-H Pen of 3 Grand Champion Market Hogs, which he sold to Northern Illinois Realty, State Bank of Woodstock and Laurel A. Hanel of Barrington. The 4-H Reserve Champ Pen of 3 was owned by Ron Wyse of Harvard and were sold to Reid's of Harvard, Legion of Moose of Harvard and Lakeland Construction com­ pany. Kim Kantlehner of McHenry showed the 4-H Grand Champion Sheep for the third consecutive year. She sold the 117-pound animal to Jones Packing of Harvard for $2.10 per pound. The Reserve Champion Market Lamb was owned by Jim Hergott of Richmond and brought him $1.10 per pound. Successful bidder was Russell Steward of Vogue Cleaners in Crystal Lake. The Cary Lions club pur­ chased Kim Kantlehner's Grand Champion Market Lamb for $1.50 per pound and donated it to the Woodstock Children's Home. Pam Cornue of Hebron had the 4-H Champ Pen of 3 Sheep and sold them to Woodstock Farm and Fleet,-- Paul Richardson of Marengo and Riverside Hair Stylist. Northern Illinois Realty, Harms Feed & Grain Automation and Harry Kinney purchased Jean Slater's Reserve Champ Pen of 3 Sheep. Livestock Auction committee members Don Stoxen, Jim Book and Gene Meyer were very pleased with the results of the sales and most appreciative of the support given these McHenry county young epople. without wnom the Red Cross could not survive. CHARGE BY 80ME EX- SERVICEMEN: "The lousy Red Cross made us pay for stuff in their Rear Area clubs". TRUTH: Unfortunately this did happen for a short time in World War II but it was not the fault of the Red Cross. The War department became troubled because American troops had more money to spend than our Allies. This, thought the department, was harmful to Allied morale. Accordingly, Secretary of War Stimson in­ structed the Red Cross to charge small fees for the hospitality to off-duty troops in rear area clubs just as our ! allies did. This was totally at odds with the Red Cross tradition "To give freely to people what other people have given to Red Cross". Un­ fortunately, although Red Cross is an independent agency, their activities must be approved by the Department of Defense, so they followed the War department orders. This was the worst blow the Red Cross reputation ever suffered and it colored the thinking of many more servicemen than were involved. Needless to say, it has never happened since that time and millions of G.I.'s have been taken care of without charge. CHARGE: "Red Cross supplies were being sold in other areas". TRUTH: The organization never sells anything other than the period mentioned previously, but there have been individual Red Cross workers who have been found (and fired) who tried to make a dishonest dollar peddling. Also there have been a few instances where Red Cross labeled cigarettes turned up in a post exchange and were sold. Also some Red Cross supplies have been hi-jacked and sold. The Red Cross organization is not perfect and individual acts of dishonesty can always be found in an organization of thirty thousand. Unfortunately, the few instances of this kind are magnified many thousand times by word of mouth and scuttle-butt. CHARGE: "Red Cross charges for blood". TRUTH: Red Cross never charges for the blood it collects and distributes to hospitals, but the patient does not always know this. He pays doctors and hospitals for services con-' nected with transfusions and he assumes that part of the money goes for blood. CHARGE: "We had to pay back money they gave us". TRUTH: In disaster areas when a large sum of money is loaned by the Red Cross to help someone get started again, it is expected that if they are able to, they will return the money so that others in the future may be helped. If they are not able to pay it becomes a gift. Ob­ viously since they are not a government agency, they could not keep giving large sums to individuals unless some was repaid. No interest is charged and no security required. Whatever a disaster family needs for normal living and cannot buy from their own resources, is given by the Red Cross. Emergency mass care for food, shelter, clothing and medical care totaled $145,974,000 in the 1960's. Also some servicemen are given loans for emergencies, which may be paid back when and if they are able, again so that future servicemen may be helped. QUESTION: What do they do in McHenry county? ANSWER: The local office has only two salaried em­ ployees who are available twenty-four hours a day. The total budget for administration is only $11,800 and this includes salaries and all office expenses. In 1970, with this small staff, they processed 25 to 100 requests a month from ser­ vicemen for emergency leaves. They brought home for family emergencies many G.I. 's, sometimes within 24 hours. This involved telephone calls to Washington which were followed by direct com­ munication through Red Cross with Army units in the field. It also involved investigation through doctors and local authorities to verify the emergency. In addition the McHenry county Red Cross handled many local relief and hardship cases of servicemen's families. They organize and administer Grey Ladies and Safety Services including First Aid and Water Safety. For­ tunately in this area, we have many dedicated volunteers who contribute time and services to make it possible to carry So popular were soybeans in ancient China -- an emperor wrote a book about them 5,000 years ago!
