He pointed out that there are 250 trained volunteers ready to be called into action, including 50 auxiliary re serves In the sheriff's office. He noted that there are ap proximately 100 food stock piles in readiness throughout Jackson county. Regarding fall-out shelters, he said the office of civil defense can only recommend. Such facilities are very lim ited in this area, primarily due to the prohobitive cost of in stallation. Community shelters would be the most feasible so lution, representing less of an individual burden in finan cing; however, to his knowl edge, no such shelters are un der consideration at this time. Rehabilitation Phase Mrs. O. E. Eden, chairman of volunteer services, and Mrs. Laura D. Porter, execu tive secretary of the Jackson county chapter of the Ameri can Red Cross, explained briefly the rehabilitation phase of disaster and what specifically had been done fol lowing the Columbus day storm. Assistance is deter mined on the basis of need, not loss, and all assistance Is an outright gift rather than a loan. During the recent Oregon disaster Red Cross workers were able to maintain com munication with many critical areas., Initial contact was made the first night of the storm during a' county wide flood emergency communication test. A mobile unit set up in the Red Cross building made contact witli ham operators, Mr. and Mrs. John Hall, in Eagle Point, who were getting a transmission from the Gold Beach area. Throughout the storm the Red Cross office maintained telephone contact with the Halls, and messages were relayed from the Port land office to the disaster area in this manner. For three days this relay repre sented the only communica tion with the Gold Beach disaster victims. Six actual applications for assistance have been process ed through the local office and work in still being done on these cases. It is estimated that the cost of rehabilitating these families will be close to $1,000. This money will come out of the National Red Cross disaster fund. Announcements were made regarding the benefit bridge luncheon to be conducted at the Red Cross building on Thursday, Nov. 15, at 12:1)0 p.m. and the formation of a new daytime first aid class beginning on Tuesday, Nov. 13, at 1 p.m. Mrs. Eden announced that a Red Cross orientation class has been scheduled for Tues day, Dec. 4, at 1 p.m. in the Red Cross building. This two hour class is usually conduct ed only once durins each year and should be attended by anyone now participating in Red Cross work. People who are interested in performing service next year are encour aged to take this opportunity to familiarize themselves with the organizat'n and its operation.
