Serbian Children
in Need of Relief

Belgrade, Oct. 11.-Pressing need
for relief work among the children Of
Serbia is shown in a REPORT issued by
the American Red Cross which states
that Of 100000 orphans and half-or-
phans in the country, only 1,40O can
be cared for by existing orphanages.
A considerable proportion of the
orphans outside the institutions are
cared for by relatives, most of them
in reduced circumstances themselves.
1t is estimated that about 100,0 900 fall
in this class. The others have MAIN
tanned a precarious existence during
the summer months as the charges
Of communities that will find it hard
to provide them with shelter when
the cold weather arrives.
The immediate problem of the
American and Serbian relief agencies
is the finding of shelter, food and
medical attention for the homeless
children for the coming winter.

The trucks haul sides OF beef
from the packing plant TO the F'ul-

average round trip being u miles.
Three trips a day are made. Case
line yields as much as 5.S miles per

The firm knows exactly from its
records that the trucks are effecting
economies possible only with Pierce
Arrow units" says Robert o. Pat

10 the actual savings earned
through the economical operation
OF Pierce-Arrow trucks, the Arm

speedy transportation reduces waste
