Every local branch of the Society also maintains a similar service, though of two year course. In the European war the Society despatched three relief corps each to England, Russia and France, this being the first time that Japan extended her philanthropic work to Europe. Three relief corps have also been sent to Eastern Siberia in 1918. The sick and wounded who were received in headquarters at Vladivostok by the year end totalled 29,034 counted in the number of days, they being mostly Czecho-Slov[illegible]ks and Bolsheviki contingents. The latest statistics returned at the end of 1917-8 fiscal year read as follows: Hospitals, 15; hospital train, 1; hospital ships, 2; medical corps, 161; doctors and pharmacists, 196; nurses and helpers 4,951. The total membership of the society was 1,798,835 including foreigners. Expenditure in 1917 amounted to ¥ 2,820,977, of which the hospitals spent ¥ 1,013,559; total property assessed at ¥ [illegible]6,769,950 From 1914 the Society is devoting 10% of the annual subscription by the members to the preventive work of tuberculosis to be undertaken by its provincial branches, this arrangement to last six years.

It keeps a workhouse for disabled soldiers, their families or families of those killed in war. Since 1918 the Society has attended also to relief works in general.
