I JANUARY DISASTERS ] QUICK LJestructire Hoods and tornado? beginning in early January were grim reminders that more Americans died ?rap wona 4ar 11 'u>SS^VwSe casualties. By mid-month the siege, brought on unseasonably early by warm weather and heavy rains, had claimed 54 dead and upwards of 150 hospitalised, records indicate. Thousands of families in rural areas of 11 mldw?tern and southern states were affected. Red Cross chapter workers who last year helped their communities through 260 disasters have again worked "round the clock. Assisting them have been doctors, nurses, and others rushed by the Red Cross to stricken areas. Surveys for the refurnishing, rebuilding, and repairing of damaged or destroyed horn?, barns, and other buildings began immediately. Rehabilitation will be completed in March. Undoubtedly new disasters will strike during the spring months and will keep the organization working at top speed in this humanitarian parade which never ends. In providing food, clothing, shelter, -SI - i medical ana nursing care, airing problems confront the Red Cross, particularly in rural sections. In flooded Mississippi valley areas, Bed Cross has obtained a priority release of house trailers to supplement tents used in sheltering farmers rescued from flooded areas. When avaeuition of farm families and livestock lias been necessary, coast V^ard and navy boats have assisted. Recent coal ihortage* in disaster areas ware relieved -when Red Cross action resulted in diversion of fuel to critical sections. An boor after surveys have been completed, the Bad Cross has obtained priority release of lumber and other mil ding materials. Included has been icreen wire toihafemvant the spread if disease in i"!* affected areas. MATS a m AX tk's % # ' *. dm, and so have we, and n< n.

' " ' PAGE THREE BRING RED 0R08S ACTION In floods and harriesnee. local Sad Cross disaster units, through advance weather bureau advisories, h-.es have effected rescues. In all disasters, tornadoes, fires, floods, hu.^tcanes, train wrecks, they have quickly sought out injured, given first aid, and arranged hospital cars. Hundreds of thousands of homeless have been sheltered, clothed, and fed. In Paterson, New Jersey, a new chapter disaster chairman successfully tackled problems of the worst flood in that city's history. Two days after a * Red Cross disaster conference la Montgomery, Alabama, a to made ripped through the city. Outstanding care given the injured wrote a bright page in the year's disaster history. In states where polio outbreaks occurred, Red Cross chapter volunteers hurriedly improvised hospital articles. In Salt Lake City, Disaster Service supplied face masks, children's nightgowns, hospital shirts, surgical gowns for nurses, blankets, and sheets. When flannelette could not be found for hot packs. Red Cross supplied 1,000 diapers for the purpose. But whether disaster or any of many other Red Cross services, all are available to people in rural communities no less than in large cities. Home nursing, farm accident prevention, assistance to families of men hi uniform and to veterans?these services continue year-in, year-out. During March the Red Cross is appealing for $100,000,000. It needs every bit of that amount to meet oblige tic-- to Vie armed forcee and civilian population "We all have a share in the American Red Cross," said Basil 0*Como^, Red Cross Chairman, when annoono- > ing the appeal. "Let's all mstnfsia i that share by contributing generously! to the 1946 Fund Campaign and ing our Red Cross society the strcag est te the world." 555555BH3SH5HB \ 0 >w that they've arrivand full of spring? your favorite dress, IIS of colors, including , that hug your head k-about wear.
