51/WU63 A BiSASTEl HELiZ- .:Zl Red Crow Aided 145,000 Vie time in United States?Leeeee . Total $30^00,000. Seventy-two disasters, with .hun dreds reported killed and Injured, and mere than 148.600 either homeless ar requiring assistance. called for smer fency relief measures aad the ex penditure of $1,44^488.36 by the American Red Oreea during the iecal year ending June 80, 1B22, according ta a atatement baaed oa the forth coming annual report of the Red Croat. The greatest toll of lilt waa taken by hurricane and tornado, 'while the overflowing of rivers, the breaking ef dams and torrential ralna drove the greatest number of people from their homes. The property lone was estimated at mora than 130, 000.000. The year's disasters reported In cluded twenty-six floods, nineteen tor nadoes, fifteen fires, four epidemics, two theatre collapses, two shlpwrocks (one an airship), and a bridge col lapse, mine explosion, railway colli sion, and a drought. Of the floods In the United States that at San An-, tonlo, Texas, caused the greatest property leas, 16,000,000 end the high mark ef fatalities. 100, while the flood In the vicinity of Vlcksburg and Natchea, Miss, forced 31,000 persons from their homes. A National Calamity In the Bad Croat disaster relief records there will probably radiate for many years one calamity which touched nearly every state with a sense of horror and of leas. This was the distressing collapse of the roof of the Knickerbocker Theatre 'hi Washington, D. <X resetting te nine ty-six deaths and 126 persons Injured. 81tnated 1a the center of the beauti ful Northwest residential section, tMh motion picture theatre wee patronized by many persons of prominence both te the official and drfl life of the Na tional Capital, whese family and per aenal connections radiated sot - ever the entire country. The horror was Intensified by o terrific sue miasm which, though It retarded, did net block Red Cross relief. . Alrthlp Crssh Finds Aid at Hand The crash and destruction of the O. 8. Army's large 'Airship Roma te Vir ginia last February with the load of 34 officers and men and U Injured was the first disaster of Its kind to cell fas Red Cross relief te this country. The suddenness of the accident tooted the preparedness of the organisation and of the Chapter at Hampton. Va? but the response was Immediate and rellaf furnished the survivors, also, funds for the expenses of .relatives of tha dead, who came from long distances to claim their own. te the year's oversea record for aid rendered by tha Red Cross are two Area te the Philippines, one te Manila, which destroyed 1,000 homes, with a loss of fl.600.000 and 5,000 persona made homeless, the other at Tonio, which drove 8.000 from their dwellings. In madlcnl relief that was quick and effective the smallpox epidemic te Baa Domingo, which had a total of 22,000 cases with 228 deaths 1b a single day, tested the readiness of the Red Cross for, action, and the same can be said of the Ban Domingo hurricane, which killed 12 persons and reduced the homes of 182 persona ta wreckage. A flood te San Salvador, with a death toll of SO and 2,000 refugees, was alas effectually handled by the local Chap ter of the American Red pross.
