150,000 VICTIMS OF DISASTERS
AIDED BY RED CROSS LAST YEAR
A Red Cross disaster worker is shown visiting a marooned family
during a recent Ohio flood, to bring them food and fue'. Of the
180 disasters handled by the Red Cross last year. 45 were floods. In
inset: Roy Wingate, national director. Red Cross Pisaster Opera
tions. who has worked on every major disaster in the United States.
WASHINGTON, D. There
they stood—wet. hungry and
i homeless—these hapless people
I of St ring Valley, Wis,, which
j had been virtually Wiped from
j thf map by one ot the flash floods;
common to the area
Their families had little warn i
ling. A creek that ran through
i tile center of the village suddenly I
j was transformed into a raging 1
I torrent by a week of rainfall
So, now they stood huddled to '
| getlier watching their possessions
; doat down the angry, muddy ,
stream, gone forever. ('tying
children clung to mothers, men
stood with bared heads, staring
into space. j
But the misery of these people
soon was lifted. The American
. lied Cross arrived. Workers ot j
I the disaster relief service quickly •
I set up food canteens, obtameil
| iheitei for the victims m one
case using an abandoned Storage
house—| rovided medical service
and clothing. Many were innocu
laleil against epilemic.
And the work hail ohlv begun.
Immediate physical demands of
! the townspeople cared for. a sur
vey of damage was made to de
termine the further actual need
in rehabilitating the village. In
some cases new houses were built
in restore the i esteems to pro
flood status.
This disaster was till a part of
the routine of the American Red
Cross Disaster Relief Service of
which Roy Wingate, for 15 years
in disaster work, is national di
rector. During a I f month period
ending February :2.s of this year,
the Red Cross had given assist
ance in ISO disasters in 44 states
numerically an all time high. It
spent mote than 11.500,000 in re
lieving and rehabilitating victims
of floods, tires, tornadoes ami
other natural catastrophies.
Despite the heavy responsibUi
ties occasioned by disasters the
Red Cross was able to expand its
relief program to meet two new
phases of wartime relief work at
By agreement with the (mice
of C ivilian Defense thousands lit
Red Cross workers were mobil
ized to be ready at a minute's
notice to give emergency aid to
victims of enemy raids should
the need arise. Elaborate prep
arations were made Equipment,
including mobile canteens, ambu
unices and disaster relief units
..ere designed by Red Cross ex
pelts and purchased by chapters
from coast to coast.
The Red Cross, too, through
chapters rimming the nation's
seashores, put into effect new
systems to give immediate aid to
Victims of submarine action. Hun
dreds of seamen have been land
ed at J T S. ports, some injured
and without food and clothing.
1'ne Red ( ross ted. clothed and
sheltered them. gave first aid
treatment, communicated with
their relatives.
The disaster relief service sup

If you have never thought, ot

his is the time to do it. In
i P43 we shall need more than
IK million home "Victory (.laid

from a few square feet to se\

many American homes. It sounds
amazing, but it’s true that mole
khan $2()0,0tHMI(i(i worth of v.g
etyjiles, not counting potatoes
and sweet potatoes, were grown
m farm home gardens in 1030.
These 4,800,000 home gardens
produced vegetables worth a lit

figures are vigorous evidence that
Homegrown vegetables do fur

proper planning cun be made to I

Residents of towns and cities,
regardless of what you may have
heard, can often produce hotter
vegetables than commercial truck
farmers. It is not at all unusual
to find a man or woman who lias
never tried gardening belorc
raising prize winning vegetables
of many kinds-—and glorying in
the work. For wardening is an
avocation that grows on the nov
ice as his first unskilled efforts
are translated into the green and
red and gold of living plants.
With some persons it becomes
such a satisfying lastime that
they spend all their spare mo
ments digging in the earth—anu
bragging unashamedly of theii
new accomplishments. ,
WATCH YOUR DIET
Raising a Victory Garden is on
ly one way in which the resident
of town or city can supplement
the magnificent efforts of Am

11)43 food goals. The second way
is by keeping an eagle eye on
your diet and the foods your

PIEDMONT SCOUT
LEADERS TO MEET
SHELBY. N. March 9.—
Tin* Executive Board of the Pied

will not win the war. Men cannot
bight on foods’that are lacking in
minerals and vitamins, in fats
and oils. Strong bodies demand
the very best kind of foods. At
home and abroad the Vital need
is for nourishing foods—fighting
, Watching the family's diet is
going to become one of Mother’s
chief occupations because about
2") per cent of our food produc
lion in lit 4.’I must be used to
supply our armed forces and oui
lighting allies. Mother will have
less of many kinds of foods than
she has had before, but there
will be .still a great plenty to
keep her family healthy imd
strong That’s her big job—
watching the family buying more
closely than ever to see that she
gets the most food for her money.
.Mother has to keep herself, her
husband, and her children in tip
top condition. It lias been prov
ed that lack of energy, loss ot
time from illness, and a high
feeideut rate ai e the results ot
poor food and unbalanced diets
among war workers. Mothers
job, therefore, is second in im
portance to none.
.T’S LIKE THIS
Figure it this way: Every
pound of food that a resident of
town or city is able to raise in a
Victory Garden, or even by eco
nomical buying or efficient man
agement in the kitchen, or by
ulr.ing foods for greatest mi
ritibnai values, is a pound ot
\aid that goes to war. It is one
less pound that the agricultural
industry must raise—one less
pound to lie grown oil a farm.
File land on which that pound of
food would have grown on a farm
cap then be devoted to produc
ing some of the other seriously
needed products that go directly
into war purposes. Here are some
of these | inducts that are not
ised for food: Wool for soldiers’
tniforms, wool for gun mounts,
veh bolting, and pecking in axle
I wheels. < otton for balloons,
h-Tft-ra chute cloth, life rafts, air
•raft pontoorie. ex] losives. Flax
or parachute harness and rig
ging. for par king marine engines,
and for signal halyards. Hemp
•for cables, and hawsers.
When you come to think of it
hat way—how could you make
a more important contribution
o the win effort while you fiill
the family clipboard?
KA I lOINIINtj 1 UU
Meeting 11)1.'! food goals, as we
nave seen, is everybody's job—
he farmer's, the war worker’s
the resident of town and city,
rurthermol e. conserving avail
able foodstuffs is also every
body’s job. You can t fill up a
.eaky boat. Neither can you fill
an empty cupboard or hold of a
ship if good food is allowed to
i) to waste in the field, in the
warehouse, in the store, or in the
home. Once produced, food must
be handled in the most efficient
manner possible. It must be
processed; that is to say, treated
ai some manner that will pre
erve it until it can be used. The
best methods of processing foods
include canning, dehydrating, and
freezing because foods so treated
will stay in edible condition for
the maximum length of time. Be
cause canned, dried, and frozen
foods have so little waste, pack
so tightly, are so convenient to
store and to use, and retain their
body building qualities longer
than fresh foods it is inevitable
that the armed forces will need
tons tons of them. That, in turn,
means less of these processed
foods for civilian consumption
and more equitable distribution
of the available supply. All of
which are reasons for Point Ra
tioning.
By now it is safe to assume
that everybody knows that can
tied and processed fruits and
Vegetables are being rationed on
a "Point System.” Believed to
be the most equitable, most work
able most understandable system
of rationing foods, the “Point”
Rationing p';.i. will assure every
one a fair share of America’s
food.
