FORM NO 538 NATIONAL OFFICERS + RED CROSS WAR COUNCIL BY APPOINTMENT OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES WOODROW WILSON, PRESIDENT ROBERT W. DE FOREST, VICE-PRESIDENT HENRY P. DAVISON, CHAIRMAN JOHN SKELTON WILLIAMS, TREASURER JOHN D. RYAN JOHN W. DAVIS, COUNSELLOR THE-AMERICAN RED CROSS CORNELIUS N. BLISS, JR. STOCKTON AXSON, SECRETARY HARVEY D. GIBSON NATIONAL HEADQUARTERS GEORGE B. CASE WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT WASHINGTON. D. C. CHAIRMAN CENTRAL COMMITTEE EX OFFICIO ELIOT WADSWORTH, VICE-CHAIRMAN WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT HARVEY D. GIBSON, GENERAL MANAGER DEPARTMENT OF NURSING ELIOT WADSWORTH JANE A. DELANO. DIRECTOR CLARA D. NOYES, DIRECTOR February 24, 1920. Miss Anna L. Tittman. A.R.C. Commission to Siberia, Vladivo stok, Siberia. My dear Miss Tittman: I beg to acknowledge the receipt of your two reports concerning Miss Bernadette Cormier, and Mrs. Margaret K Cooper, together with the efficiency and assignment reports of the nurses and aids already released. I shall do nothing more than acknowledge these enclosures as the operations are closing so rapidly in Vladivostok. Your letter of the 30th with the report for the Eastern Division for theweek ending January 24th has also been received. I was gald to learn that Miss Smythe and Miss Steelman were making progress. Later information received by cable states that Miss Steeleman does not expect to return to this a untry. This will be a great disappointment to her family as they are most anxious for her return and what they choose to style "the Red Cross sending her home." It is difficult to understand the nurse's willingness to remain in that country. We have had a telegram from Miss Bartlett announc- ing her arrival in San Francisco, and also one from Miss White reporting the safe landing of the large group. I have also received a communication from Major R.H.Allen, under date of the 2nd, enclosing the weekly report for the month of November from the Central Division. He expresses warm appreciation of the services that the nurses have rendered. Recent cables received announce that Miss Harrington is traveling in China, We are hoping that you will be able to reach her and return her to this country as soon as possible for the position in Seattle as Division Director Red Cross Nursing Service. I am partic- ularly busy this week but will try to find some leisure time to read these reports later. Very truly yours, Clara Droged Director. Department of nursing. cdn/edk
