Red Cross offi- cial sfeel that there is a vital and im- mediate need for such home for babies in Sora and the masses of tumbled wreckage left by the disaster offers the only buildinz material ready for the purpose. At the time of the earthquake, the two towns of Sora and Avezzano were practically wiped out But inasmuch Avez- zano is the bigger and more important place, almost all the help which was given to the sufferers by Italy and the rest of the world at that time, went to the large town, leaving Sora to rest in abject poverty amongst its ruins—a poverty which has been trip- led and aggravated by war conditions, thus making it a highly necessary field for Red Cross operations. Nothing has heen rebuilt in Sora. The peovle have been compelled to live in hovels amongst the fallen walls of their for- mer homes. There are numbers of children amongst these destitute fami- lies to whom the Red Cross desires to give aid and care. So the ruins will grow again into homes.
