The same applies to the patriotic and dis- tinguished men and women who are devoting time and talents to the direction of this great organization. _ It has been said in criticism that ‘Red Cross funds are not audited. The ‘truth is that the Red Cross is the most thoroughly audited society in the Dominion. Few organizations in Canada have been more severely criticized by whisperers than the Canadian Red Cross Society. No sooner is one lie exposed than a second is invented and given wings. The latest fiction about this patriotic organization is that the chairman and the secretary are drawing fabulous salaries. The sole purpose of these untruths is to hamper the Red Cross in itarian work. It has been whispered around that Dr. Routley receives a salary of $17,000 or more per annum. The Globe and Mail has reason to know that this is utterly false; the fact is that the combined salaries of the national commissioner (Dr. Routley), the assistant national commissioner and their secretaries (both highly trained young women) total only $13 .600. Faisehoods about the Red Cross are invented by malicious enemies to shut the gates of mercy and impede the war effortâ€"Globe and Mail. Buy Canadian â€" Buy British Richmond Hill, Ont.
