Investiga- tions made since the flood waters subsided have shown that many of the homes will not be fit to live in again without extensive repairs—floors are sagging and foundations are crumbling. Due to the length of time the water stood in the houses the damage was greater than is ordi- narily caused by overfiow waters. Many of the familiés are not only unable to replace their furnishings and bedding, but have no funds with which to make necessary re- pairs. In such instances repairs will be financed from Red Cross relief funds. Contributions from Sacramento, North Sacramento and the surrounding territory at this date total nearly $11,000.00. In addition, the National Red Cross has made an appropriation of $500.00. In reestablishing families in their homes the Red Cross is is- suing disbursing orders to the lo- cal merchants, who will provide the necessary household furnish- ings, sending the bill to the Red Cross. In cases where repairs are examine the building and the con- tract goes to the lowest bidder, who will be paid by the Red Cross. A number of the houses inundated were being purchased by the families living in them. Red Cross workers are clearing all records with the Title Com- pany to ascertain the obligations Miss Margaret Edgin, who re- cently resigned her position as executive secretary of Benton County Chapter, Oregon, has join- ed the staff of disaster workers, Pacific Branch, Miss Eva Hance, in co‘operation with a.committes composed of the Mayor and the City Council of Nonth Sacramento.
