58 THE _ZEMSTVOS DURING THE WAR On August 25, 1914, an imperial decree was issued giving official sanction to the Union of Zemstvos. It was recognized as an inde- pendent organization striving for objects similar to those of the Red Cross, and therefore entitled to use the emblem of the International Red Cross Society. The Minister of the Interior sent out a circular informing the provincial governors of the organization of the All- Russian Union of Zemstvos and ordering them to cosperate loyally with the provincial and district zemstvo committees. The Central Committee of the Union opened the following de- partments that set to work under its general direction: central depot (controlling all depots and warehouses belonging to the Union, as well as its purchasing commission), hospitals, evacuation, hospital train, donations, treasury, accounting, and secretariat. In course of time, as the activities of the organization expanded more and more, the number of departments was considerably increased, as we shall see later in the course of this study.
