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

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

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.
