An organization similar in many respects to the famous Red Cro , from which it differs chiefly in the fact that it is distinctly American. It was founded in 1898 by Mrs. Jane Creighton, of Portland, Ore., who became its first president. Its emblem is designed to represent the cro bandages of white upon the blood-red field of war, encircled by the blue of the firmament, comprising the triple color of the Union. The motto of the organization is "Truth, Charity and Philanthropy," and its purposes include not only the caring for wounded and sick American soldiers and sailors, but the aiding of the widows and orphans of those who are killed in battle or die of disease or accident. The organization is self-supporting, and all it asks of the national government is recognition and protection. white-cro knight, s . A Knight Hospitaller.
