Unueo states In the war the successes
of the Central Powers in Roumania
had reduced that country to a most
tragic condition and in the summer
Of 1917, the American Red Cross des-
patched its first Roumanian relief
contingent. Two hospitals were at
once taken over and operated by the
Red Cross, a canteen for the starving
refugees established and food and
clothing distributed over large area.
Transportation was one Of the
toughest problems with which the Red
Cross workers In Roumania had to
deal. Here is seen an oxcart used
by the Red Cross to carry its relief
supplies up into the mountains.

Dr. Beauchamp, "are now living in

Montdidier, Belgrade and other points.
A full contingent of physicians,
nurses, directors and social workers
