Year of Calamity. Tornadoes headed the list of disas ters which struck the United Status iir- the past yeor. the fepprt of Red Cross relief operations for the' year ending June 30, showing 29 great storms. Floods were second on the list, 24 being recorded^for lhe same period. This • record does not include the St. Louis tornado which occurred in ih^ current fiscal year, as did a num ber of other storms and disasters since, in which the Red Cross provid ed relief. Included in the list of 111 disasters covered by the record of the past year’s relief operations of the Red Cross, - are earthquakes, < explosions,, mine dlsqjsters, a cloudburst, a hail storm, flettorfloods, hurricanes, a rail road wreck, a scarlet fever epidemic, typhoid epidemic, tornadoes, and s typhoon. The latter occurred in the Philippines, but is included* in the operations at home. In ail, the Red Cross extended its services in ^7 ma jor disasters in the United States and in 20 abroad, including a hurricane over Havana. Cuba, and the Isle of • Pines, one in the Bahamas, and oth ers through various West Indian re gions, fire in Porto Rico, another in Haiti, earthquakes in Armenia, Japan and Albania, floods m Jugo Slavia and Mexico. The organization conducted refugee operations in Syria, Bulgaria and China, the latter largely due to factional wars fought over various parts of China the past year. • . ,x. The two outstaudirfg'disasters at home were the Florida hurricane and the Mississippi Valley flood. Rehahtli- talion operations of the latter disaster are still in progress under the Red Cross- A national appeal for funds was made in both disasters, resulting in contributions for relief amounting to more th^n $20,000,000. The Mississippi flood is the out standing disaster in the whole history of the Red Cross disaster relief serv ice. In this' one catastrophe the or ganization' raised through subscrip tions by the people of the country arid foreign nations approximately $17.- 000,000 for relief use. AlderJ hy this fund it fed, clothed, sheltered or otn erwise assisted more than 600.000 hu man beings, fed and cared for ap proximately 200,000 head of livestock and established 149 refugee camps. The flood inundated approximately 20.000 squfire -miles and affected 174 counties- in eight states. Some .Y’O,- 000 fiomeless persons were sheltered in Red Cross camps. When the emer gency was at its height the Red Cross was serving more than a million meals a day. So vast was the work i/nposed on ! 1 0 1 11 1 n B Bl j B *u .. , relief rki/ illiCd the Red Cross and allied agencies conducting rehabilitation that thl* phase of the flood relief task is ex pected to extend well into the coming year Up to September 15, 104,441 families in the flood zone had been given rehabilitation assistance by the Red Cross, and 1,700,000 acres of flooded crop land in seveji States had been replanted with Red Cross aid. There had beeAexpended or commit ted for expenditure in connection with this relief and rehabilitation work a total of $15,660,000. K Thq appeal for a nation-wide mem bership increased to 5,000,000 adult members, it was poiqted out, is based on the realization that demands o.i Red Cross service such as occasioned by disaster relief are increasing each year. For that reason especial im^ portance is Ifnt to the Eleventh An’ nual Roll Gall of the organization, to be held fimm Armistice Day, Novem ber 11, to Thanksgiving, November 24, during which this membership wUJr'be built -up.
