THE HAWS NEEDY
Hour, Bread, Clothinfl Reach Into
More Than Ave Million
Homes of Jobless
The greatest task ever undertake*
by a relief agency la the history of
private charity 1* drawing to a close
with the final distribution of cotton
clothing to more than five million
familie* by the American Red Croat.
At the direction of the Congress, be
ginning eighteen months ago, the Red
Cross undertook to convert the wheat <
and cotton surpluses of the Farm
Board into food and clothing for th*
unemployed and needy. In the con
sequent operation, this relief agency
entered upon a commercial enterprise
greater than any single commercial
firm has ever undertaken tn the sine
period of time.
In the ensuing mon 1 s th* Red
Cross converted 85,006,006 bushel* of
wheat into flour and bread ar. !,-vn It
to 5,803,000 families. The dlstrlbu'.:'^
was through 8,700 Rod Cross chapter«
and hundreds of other charitable agen
cies. During the severe northwestern
drought of 1831 tho Red Cross also
gave wheat in tho form of food for live
stock to 184,188 families.
The clothing — dresses, underwear,
overalls, jumpers, sweaters and stock
ings for men, woman and children, and
even blankets and comforters was dis
tributed to 5.465.410 families. Moro
than 54.000,000 ready-made garments
and 92,000,000 yards of cdtton cloth
were given to the needy. This clothing
camo from 844,000 bales of cotton.
The wheat distribution was conclud
ed in Juna 1933, and Anal distribution
of cotton clothing 1» occurring in the
fall months.
In handling these tasks voted to it
by Congress, the Red Cross will ex
pend from its own treasury >735,000.
At tho same Une the organization car
ried on Its regular program of disaster
relief: of service to the veterans of all
our wars; of educational and welfare
work through the Junior Red Cross;
of health education and public health
waving and of life saving and first aid.
Funds for this work come from the
membership roll call the Red Cross
chapters conduct from Armistice Day
to Thanksgiving Day, when every one
Is invited to join the Red Cross and aid
in this vital relief work.
Seven hundred thousand women vol
unteers under the Red Cross banner
sewed for the needy last year and
many thousands still are making cot
ton garments for , their Red Cross
chapters.
The Red Cross has 1,701 chapters
»nd 10,000 branches of chapters. Thus
It can be mobilised nationwide in a
great relief task within 24 hours.

the relief annals of the American
Rod Cross which show over a period
of years that the tornado, or cyclone
