Upper right Saddened by their plight little orphans of the storm sup at Red Cross food station In Pittsburgh. Lower right-Warm clothing was needed In Pittsburgh when zero weather followed floods. , fJPHE appalling floods that swept r over eastern states during the middle Of March caused the Amerl - can Red Cross to take under Its ' care more than 100,000 families in thirteen States. Pennsylvania was hardest hit, and in the cities of Pittsburgh and Johnstown the Red Cross either fed, sheltered or clothed 117,000 persons. The suffer ing was intense, because added to deluges of flood water, came rain, snow and intense cold. Many cities and towns were cut off for 48 hours or more from com munlcatlon with the outside world, both in Pennsylvania and in Con necticut. The Red Cross used air planes to rush medical supplies Into afflicted towns, and to drop food supplies from the skies over other places. Trucks with water, medi cine, food, clothing were rushed into many towns. Amateur radio opera tors told the outside world over short wave sets what the true con ditions were. Within a few days the Red Cross had more than 200 relief workers and 200 Red Cross nurses in all of the communities in the thirteen States which had suffered from flood waters. Admiral Cary T. Grayson, Chair man, notified President Roosevelt, who is President of the Red Cross, that a relief fund of at least f 3,000, 000 would be needed. President Roosevelt addressed a proclamation to the nation asking for liberal con tributions. When double the number of families came under care of the -----j Mr - ' . . Red Cross than had been antici pated, Admiral Grayson urged that this three million dollar fund be ex ceeded by Chapters. Many respond ed by doubling and trebling their goals. Citizens were urged to contribute to their local Red Cross Chapters. After the flood emergency passed, the Red Cross prepared to restore needy families to their homes and anticipated that their workers would not conclude the relief job for sev eral months.
