Red Cross disaster units, through
advance weather bureau advisories,
have warned residents in time for
safe evacuation; in remote sections,
they have effected rescues. In all
disasters, tornadoes, fires, floods,
hurricanes, train wrecks, they have
quickly sought out injured, given
first aid, and arranged hospital
Hundreds of thousands of
homeless have been sheltered,
clothed, and fed.
In Paterson, New Jersey, a new
chapter disaster chairman success-
fully tackled problems of the worst
flood in that city’s history. Two
days after a Red Cross disaster'
conference in Montgomery, Ala-
bama, a tornado ripped through
the city. Outstanding care given
the injured wrote a bright page in
the year’s disaster medical history.
In states where polio outbreaks
occurred, Red Cross chapter voluli- •
teers hurriedly improvised hospital
articles. In Salt Lake City, Dis-
aster Service supplied face masks,
children’s nightgowns, hospital
shirts, surgical gowns for nurses,
blankets, and sheets. When flan-
nelette could not be found fbr 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 acci-
dent prevention, assistance to fam-
ilies of men in uniform and to vet-
erans — 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 obligations to
the armed forces and civilian popu-
lation.
“We all have a share in the
American Red Cross,” said Basil
O’Connor, Red Cross Chairman,
when announcing the appeal. “Let’s
all maintain that share by con-
tributing generously to- the 1946
Fund Campaign and keep our Red
Cross society the strongest in the
world.”

Tanks Should Have
Protection; Rains
Will Ruin Dams
Soil Conservation Service tech-
nicians assisted—Hr—D. Wynne,
. whose farm is located in the Kir-
ven Conaervation Group, sodded
his tank dam last week.
Many farmers have become con-
cerned about their tank dams
washing away. These tank dams
when left bare cf vegetation tend
to wash away very rapidly and
should be sodded in Bermuda
grass jn order to hold the soil in
place. Natural vegetation covers
these newly constructed dams very
slowly du6 to the fact that the last
dirt put on the dam is clay and
will support very little vegetation.
The Bermuda sod should be put
or. the top and both front and
back slopes. The Bermuda should
be fertilized with either Ibarnyard
manure or commercial fertilizer in
order to stimulate the growth. The
sodding cap be most successfully
done during the spring of the year.

January Disasters Bring
Quick Red Cross Action
Destructive floods and tornadoes
beginning in early January were
grim reminders that more Ameri-
cans died in home-front accidents
and disasters during World War II
than as war casualties.
By mid-month the siege, brought
on unseasonably early by warm
I weather and heavy rains, had
I claimed 54 dead and upwards off,care.
; 150 hospitalized, records indicate.
Thousands of families in rural
areas of 11 midwestern and south-
ern states have been affected.
Red Cross chapter workers who
last year helped their communities
through 260 disasters have again
worked ’round the clock. Assisting

ed him. The field director drove
him to the airport, and the boy ar-
rived home in time—not to see his
mother die, but to save her life

Today, almost seven months after
V-J Day, some 17,000 Red Cross
workers are still with .the GIs at
home and abroad. Hundreds of clubs
and rest homes overseas are in oper-
ation where men meet on leave, get
home-cooked food, and that prime
American favorite—doughnuts and
coffee. Music and entertainment,
books, magazines, and home town
newspapers, lounge and writing
rq^ms—all are popular. For men
staying overnight there are aom-
fortable beds, clean sheets, and hot
showers.
More important than Red Cross
services to the able-bodied are
those for the wounded and ill. In
army and navy hospitals the
country over, professional and vol-
unteer Red Cross workers serve in
many ways.
To the hospitalized a financial or
family problem may prey upon the
mind and dull the will to recovery.
Under guidance of Red, Cross medi-
cal social workers many a problem
is dissolved, and obstacle overcome.
Programs directed by recreation
workers help patients forget their

The crucial moment had come.
Now, upon the actions of a little
girl, the future of this family would
depend. For a moment the tot
stood In the doorway, looking at
her father across the room. Then,
without hesitation, came the patter

“Daddy,” she cried, “Daddy, it’s me

A simple service, yes. But it de-

people. Without the understapding
heart, and the many who daily ^ive

In flooded Mississippi valley
areas, Red Cross has obtained a'
priority release of house trailers
to supplement tents used in
sheltering farmers rescued from
flooded areas. When evacuation of
farm families and livestock has
been necessary, coast guard and
navy boats have assisted. Recent
coal shortages in disaster areas
were relieved when Red Cross ac-
tion resulted in diversion of fuel
to critical sections.
An hour after surveys have been
completed, the Red Cross has ob-
tained priority release of-dumber
and other building materials. In-

American Red Cross Aids
Wounded and Able-bodied
For example, there was the
blinded soldier whose face was hor-
ribly scarred, who was expecting a
visit from his wife and five-year-
old daughter. It would be the first
meeting in two years, he told the
Red Cross girl who was teaching
him rummy with Braille cards.
“My little girl knows I’m blind
ind she’s planning how she’ll do
things for me,” he said.
But what she did not know, what
had been kept from him so that it
might not retard his readjustment,
was the way-, he was scarred and
disfigured.
The Red Cross girl caught her
breath. “That’s fine," she said.
“I’ll meet them at the train.”
