Calls for aid came from eleven other nations In which earthquakes, floods and other problems caused dl» tress to large populations, and the Red Cross sent 276,300 to help la re ■ tiering the suffering. The catastrophe causing the great eat loss of life and most widespread devastation was the West Indies hur rlcane of September, 1228, in which more than 2.000 lives were tost in Florid*. Porto Rico and the Virgin Islands. A relief fund of 25.883,725.62 was contributed by the public, follow ing a proclamation by the Presldenl of the United States, to which th> Red Cross added 250,000 from It* own treasury, and the society was ena bled to give relief to more than 700, 000 persons. in the early Spring, river flood* in the southeastern states cost a heavy loss to many persona. 76,000 Inhab Itants being affected In four states The Red Cross assisted 4,333 families, approximately 28.000 persons, with food, clothing, temporary housing, feed for stock and seed for replant Ing.

HESE great air lines depend on Richfield Gasoline to carry them safely through ever-changing flying conditions— through rain and snow, in T blistering desert heat—jumping from sea level to hurdle mountain peaks at altitudes of more than 12,000 feet. W ithout exception, they have found the famous “Gasoline of Power” more than satisfactory in meeting the grueling demands of day-in and day-out flying service. W estern Air Express service, with its record of 99.6% performance, ex- tends throughout the West and as far east as Kansas City while Maddux another name prominently identified with aviation progress—operates on regular schedule throughout the Southwest with terminals at Los An- r geles, San Francisco and Agua Caliente. 1 ^Transcontinental Air Transport—a national factor in the field of air trans- i portation—is famous for the character of its equipment and personnel, its service facilities atjd its record performance. Standard Air Lines and Mid- Continent Air Express, operating throughout Western territory, are also doing their part in building the prestige of Western Aviation.
