Next largest appropriation is for
the year-round coordination of Red
Cross activities, which are world
wide in scope. Out of each dollar
19 cents is used for this purpose.
Almost six cents is used for
civilian emergencies, which in

floods, fires and similar disasters.
A little over five cents is used for
the blood program, which is for
military purposes.
Five cents out of each dollar
goes for swimming and water

for disaster relief at home and
abroad.

and two cents goes to a reserve
emergency fund. Approximately
one cent each is used for service j
