RED CROSS HOUSED FOR
HELP ADMINISTERED
FLOOD SUFFERERS
The special $5,000,000 flood re*
lief drive which the American
Red Cross is now conducting will
probably continue all summer ac
cording to surveys by prominent
authorities.
Praising the organisation for
its effective assistance, Raymond
M. Foley, Housing Administrator
and Federal Emergency Flood Re
lief Co-ordinator, points out the
different functions of the govern
ment and the Red Cross in this
mammoth disaster.
“While federal funds arc avail
able to restore basic facilities for
community operation and to as
sist in emergency housing, health
protection, farm aid, and other
needs,” he said in a statement is
sued for July 30 release, “thou
sands of families will be depend
ent on the response of the Amer
ican people to the Red Cross ap- j
peal.”
As a supplement to local and
state resources, he gaid, emerg
ency and rehabilitation help is
needed by thousands of stricken
families who have lost their be
longings, their employment or
crops, or their homes, and have
little resources to keep them go
ing.
“There is no agency better suit
ed for rendering this personal
and effective assistance than the
Red Cross,” he said. “Its serv
ices are indispensable if assist
ance from federal and state
sources is to be effective.”
Co-ordinating the work of the
Red Cross with that of the Fed
eral Government is Clarence F.
Rowland, assistant national di
rector of the organization’s dis
aster services, who is a veteran
of 25 years’ experience. Mr. Row
lan<fvflew to Kansas City on July
18 to plan long-term rehabilita
tion measures for victims unable
to get back on their feet without
help. |
On July IB, the Red Cross was j
housing 17,500 persons in* 80
shelters and feeding 42,600 in a .
four-state area, but the biggest
job follows relief. It is then that
the repair and rebuilding of
homes, the help to re-establish
businesses of individuals must be
done. Mr. Rowland estimates
that more than 18,000 families
may require long-term help of
some kind.
The stories of need are legion,
but one will illustrate what the

TO MEET lilttnrtn requirement* for the increased home entertain
ing expected this year. 1S47 Rogers Bros, is making its new Daffodil
pattern (above) available in chests having complete service for six.
eight and twelve persons.
To offset higher taxes . . . and*
the increased cost of living . . .
there'll be more entertaining in
the home this year than for the
past six years.
For some women, particularly
the bride, this may cause anxious
moments. They’ll worry about the
correctness of their table setting,
whether it be for a buffet supper,
informal luncheon or a “dessert
and coffee snack” after bridge or
a TV show.
Actually there’s no deep mystery
about arranging a table so that it
is correct and still permit a hostess
to give full expression to her in
dividuality. In fact, 1847 Rogers
Bros., the oldest name in silver
plate, points out there are only
nine rules to follow in table set
ting. These are: _
1) Place knife at right of plate
with cutting edge toward plate.
2) All spoons are placed at right
of plate and to right of knives.
3) All forks are placed at left of
plate, except oyster fork which
is always at right of plate with
knives and spoons.
4) All silverware is placed in the
sequence in which it is to be
used. That which is to be used
first is farthest from the plate.
5) Dessert silver never is placed
on either side of the plate with
other silver. It is brought in
with the dessert.
6) Butter spreaders are placed on
the bread and butter plates.
The correct place for the bread
and butter plate is at the tip
of the meat fork.
7) Spoons for the tea or coffee are
brought in on the saucer with
the cup.
8) Serving spoons and serving
forks should be used in pairs.
When table spoons are used
for serving, the dinner fork is
the correct companion piece.
9) Silverware is placed on an
even line about one inch from
the edge of the table. _

TOBIN WRITES CHILDREN ON
MEANING OF LABOR DAY
WASHINGTON, D. C—Thirty
boys and girls in the fifth grade
of an Ithaca, New York school re
cently wrote to the United States
Department of Labor requesting
material on the signifiance and
purpose of Labor Day.
Secretary of Labor Maurice J.
Tobin decided to answer it per
sonally. He wrote:
“Dear Boys and Girls:
“Your note to the Labor De
partment expressed interest in
what Labor Day means.
“Labor Day is an Important
holiday for it is the day dedicated
to the toil of over 66,000,000
Americans. It is these Americans
in the shops, factories, mines,
mills, and offices, and on the
farms who have made our Nation
Btrong and free.
“It is the toil of theat millions
of workers who have built the
houses in which you live, the
school in which you learn, and the
churches in which you worship.
It is through their labor that
life is made more agreeable and
A 71-year-old woman in tne
Topeka, Kans., Red Cross shelter
was much concerned as she
started to go home with her 70
year-old husband.
“I take in washings,” she ex
plained. “My machine is ruined
by the flood. My tubs are washed
away.”
The Red Cross replaced the
washer.
In the 70 years that the Red
Cross has been in existence, $190,
(>00,000 has been spent on domes
tic, insular, and foreign disaster
operations. Only nine times in
the past 30 years has the organi
zation had to make a special ap
peal. This year, because last,
year’s fund campaign was not!
fully subscribed, the extra drive
was necessary. The last special
disaster appeal was made in 1938
following the New England hurri
cane. In 1937 more than $28,
>00,000 was raised for the Ohio
Mississippi Valley flood relief
operation.
i comfortable for you and for all
the citizens of our great land.
“Labor Day is a day upon |
which a grateful Nation gives,
recognition to the achievements
and contributions of the men and
women of our work-force. It is
a day given over to the further
ance of the brotherhood of man:
to peace, tolerance, freedom, and
hope for all.
