“ED CROSS EXCLUDED
Has No Rights in Civil War. Pathetic.
illegal Use in China
When the framers of the treaty of
Geneva. which provides for the protec.
tion of agents of the Red Cross in war,
had completed their task they had
omitted all mention of one important
question which has recently been a
cause of uncertainty and some embar-
rassment. This question relates to the
function of the Red Cross in civil war.
The treaty. in tact. does not provide
any method by which the lied Cross
may help to ameliorate the horrors
of civil war. When two governments
are at war with each other, if both are
signatories to the treaty, both are
bound to protect the agents of the Red
Cross and respect the Red Cross Flag.
if only oneof the warring governments
has signed the treaty, neither is re-
quired to respect the Red Cross flag
or agents. in such a case the two
countries by special agreement may
bind themselves to observe the rules
of the treaty and thus avail them-
selves of the humane administration
of the Red Cross.
in the case of civil war or revolu-
tlonary movements. however, the rev-
eiutionaries are not only not signers
of the trusty of Cwneva. but as they
have no recognised government sta-
tus. they are held to be incapable of
entering into a responsible agreement
concerning the Red" Cross with the
government which they are trying to
overthrow. Thus no way is left open
by which the Red Cross may legally
and safely give its kindly services in
time oicivii war.
Doria; the progress of the recent
irevoiutlon in Mexico. the American
lRed Cross uttered its services to the
Mexican government. but its oifer
could not be accepted. As a result,
the American Red Cross confined its
activities to the Mundary line between
the United States and Mexico. caring
for sick- and wounded sodidlera nod
destitute refugees who were brought
across the border or taking the risk of
venturing over the line, without oili-
clal protection, when the demands of
humanity were imperative, as was the
case at Jaures, Noodles. Tia Juana and
elsewhere. , . .
The importance of rigid government
bontrol of the use of the Red Cross
is well illustrated by the present con‘
dition in China where no official su-
pervision of'auch use exists. Many
different unauthorised organizations
are using the emblemrln the hope of
protecting the livesdand property of
their members. Since no restrictions
on this use ne'enforceddhe“ result is
that the emblem «has lost its reacted
character in foreisl and pathetic
scramble for a protection which it
cannon. give. The following extract
from a private letter from Wuchans,
Chills bears directly upon this point:
“All sorts of people are using the
its: and the badge who have no right
to ‘do so and many seem to think that
‘i subscription onuuu them to full in-
'munity and protection. The Red
brass is so badly abused by misuse
