To prevent suffering in this period of unemployment and general economic depression, the Red Cross made distribution of wheat, flour, clothing, medi- eine and other supplies. More flan 2,200 chapters have par- ticipated in community unemploy- ment relief programs, it is shown, Constructive measures for com- Datting hardship in drought aveas reguited in the distribution of @arden seed to 605,000 farmers in 1981, and 315,000 additional packets of garden seed were dis- triputed in the spring of 1932. The work for war veterans and thelr families multiplied, it is stated, owing to economic. strin- gency and to change and liberal- jon in veterans’ legislation. ing and health activities were igpadened and intensified to meet the. ‘gudden emergencies of natural disaster and to cope with incipient disease threatened by malnutri- tion. First aid and life saving con- tinued as the national evangels of safety on land, water. and high- way; the accepted leader in teach- ing accident prevention. The Junior Red Cross, with 6,- 775,000 members in schools, was stimulated to increased achieve- ments in service to less fortunate children, to community enter- prises, to veterans in hospitals, and the general alleviation of dis- tress everywhere. The Red Cross now finds itself carrying the largest peace time load in the history of humanitarian organizations. Memberships are $1, half of this amount remains with the local chapter to be used in local relief work, the other half goes to headquarters to relieve distress all over the world. If. larger amounts are donated, only the one half of a regular member- ship goes to headquarters and the remainder is used in local ‘relief work. Key West has been. assisted on numerous oceasions by Red Cross, and for this reason it is expected that residents will codperate in this drive for memberships. rcellent Program At Fern Chapter Memorial; Me iF Stpipressive and beautiful were memorial services yesterday.
