The Italian Disaster

Never in its history has the American Red Cross more graphically proven its mobility and efficiency than when it went to meet and care for the half million or more refugees who were driven down from the mountains of northern Italy by the Austrian invaders in October of last year.
 The Italian situation" was flashed on the world overnight. For two years the Italian Army had been slowly making its way against the Austrian. In two days all it had accomplished was undone. During those two days not only was 1talys military progress reversed but six hundred thousand of her women and children and old men were forced to flee before Mackensens force.
 If ever there was an emergency to be met 1t was when the refugees began to stream down the mountains Nh northern Italy. From Wash ington there was flashed to Rome assurances of aid, backed by authority to Ambassador Page to draw on the Red Cross for immediate AOaAO0' SOs&nNA@A dSCA1G was with Red Crcss funds to meet the emergency quickly; every Red Cross agent was set to work
 Food and clothing for hundreds of thou sands had to be bought. The Italian hospital service had been wrecked by the enemy and had to be restored. Transportation service had to be provided and hOmes created for the refugees
 Babies were bssng Born and were dying by Che roadside. Refugees by the hundreds of thousands were hungry, ashirst and i'll. Here was sieuasion that called for speed above all else. DeIay meant death and suffering to thcusaaaA

the middle of an October afternoon. In the face of almost insurmountable obstacles, Red Cross train loaded with food, clothing, ether, and other supplies was made ready innme- diately. It was placed in charge of Red Cross agent with instructions to get to Rome no matter how, but get there It was started, cut in two by accident, coupled together, started again, and reached Rome in just one quarter of the wartime schedule.
 A comprehensive Red Cross organization was quickly woven together. Red Cross sup plies began to accumulate in needed centers. The stream of refugees flowed unabating to the South. One afternoon, on two hours notice, preparations were made to feed twelve thousand refugees at the Portonaccio Station.
 Hundreds of thousands had been dislodged from their homes. To have cared for this un- housed population would have taxed the re- sources of any country. But, in addition, Italy had to salvage its army and turn back an invasion with its remaining organized force
 twas to this emergency that the Red Cross brought its mobile machinery and financial aid. In this work the American note was struck by the Red Cross - it gave assurance to Italy that in resisting invasion and getting under her heavy load of civil distress, the American peoDle were with her.
 In his address at the opening of Parliament early in December, the Italian Premier, Baron Sonnino. said, "Our soul is stirred again with appreciation and admiration for the magnificent dash with which the American Red Cross has brought us powerful aid in our recent misfertune. We attribute great value to the cooperation which will be given us against the common enemy by the prodigious activity and by the exuberant and consistent force which are peculiar to the American people"
Norwich bulletin., 1918-05-15

The Red Cross has many aspects In one view, it is the American peoples organized and world wide preparation against calamity.
 It acts in emergency, is supported by the people, is manned by those trained to fight disaster. It is supported by voluntary contributions; it's oper- ations cover the whole field of human misfortune.
 Disaster comes unheralded; cyclones tornadoes, earthquakes foods explosions, confagrations, tor pedoes even battles and invasons, give little warn ing, or none.
 To meet emergency these things are necessary: organization, resources, equipment, expert know edge, zeal mobility and speed
 The American Red Cross is the main reliance of our own Government and co-operates with foreign governments and foreign societies in the work of relief everywhere.

The German Attack
 in March, 1918

When the Germans after full winters preparation launched the greatest of ai attacks against the British in March of this s. year, the British retired over considerable area, forcing the civil population again to evaeuate this stricken soil. .s-ee-= The papers of March 27th told the story of the inhabitants in the early hours of Monday morning March 25th, transporting and feeE ing them and providing food and shelter for them in Paris. ggsyg8 Again the capacity to meet the emergency. ' As one looks back over the recent years there is chain of record of how the American Red Cross rose to the occasion. The San Francisco, earthquake, the famine in Russia in 1908, the Messna earthquake, the Cherry Mine disaster. tie inundation of Paris in 1910, the famine in China in the same year, the Titanic disaster, the Mississippi and Ohio floods in 1918, the Eastland disaster in 1915 and now the daily. record of emergency met by the Red Cross in Roumania, Russia, Greece, Serbia, Italy, Bel gium, France and the United States in this greatest catastrophe of all time. gr

Wien the Germans torpedoed the Antilles last October, killing sixty-seven men, one hun drsd and seventy Americans with but $ few minutes to leave the sinking transport, Roated. half clad, in life boats and rafts, in icy water for hours. They finally reached port in France. Cooperating with the governmental authorities, the Red Cross rushed to the port, fed the survivors, clothed them, hurried the worst sufferers to the hospitals, and supplied them with money to be repaid when possible. Had the members of their own families met them ashore, these American boys could not have had more solicitous care; and the Ameri- can Red Gross, thinking always of the family as well as of the direct sufferer, cabled their condition to their families in this country.

The Explosion at Halifax

On December 6, 1917, the city was wrecked by the detonation of unnumbered tons of high explosives in the harbor. Ten million dollars worth of property was destroyed A city of wounded and blinded cried for help.
 A member of the American Red Cross, trained in emergency relief, was on the scene when it happened. He wired Washington, and on the afternoon of the day the explosion occurred, the American Red Cross perfected its emergency organization and its relief work was started.
 A special Red Cross train of relief supplies left New York the next day. Another Red Cross train filled with hospital supplies, to- gether with sixty doctors and sixty nurses, left Providence. A base hospital, complete in equipment and personnel, left Boston. In all, two hundred Red Cross workers and vast quan- titles of supplies soon arrived in Halifax. Ten thousand were homeless in zero weather. The combined efforts of the local authorities, the Canadian Government and the American Red Cross workers in unison soon brought adequate relief to the city.
 America through its Red Cross had again given evidence to Canada that her trials are our trials and earned the gratitude of that great people beside whom we are now fighting the fight fer freedom.
 The Guatemala Earthquake In less than three weeks after the Halifax disaster an earthquake wrecked Guatemala City virtually erasing it from the map. The Secretary of State, himself member of the Central Committee of the Red Cross, cahled the American Minisser at Gassegaala

The Tuscan1a

Fresh in the memory of all is the sinking of the Tuscania by the Germans in February. The American soldiers and sailors who sur- vived the disaster were aided in every possible way by the American Red Cross and the British Red Cross from the time they landed in Ireland. The food, the clothing, the new uniforms, the loans of money, and especially the word to the folks at home sent by the Red Cross IT the story has been told many times.
