Recent Storms That Swept

Of Preparedness
RELIEF EXPEDITIONS

WASHINGTON Apr. 16.-Disaster
preparedness. a vital part of the
peace-time program of the American
Red Cross, put to test in the series
of tornadoes which recently swept
the Central and Southern states TAX
ing great toll in life and property,
amply proved its effectiveness.
In three divisions, the Central,
Lake and Southern, while the storm
still ragged Red Cross workers has
tened TO the relief of hundreds of
injured and homeless and the de-
spatch and efficacy with which re-
lief was administered by Red Cross
chapters was such that assistance
from National Headquarters was not
needed. In one or two localities the
communities themselves grappled
with the relief problem so success
fully that outside help was not re-
quired but trained relief units of the
Red Cross were on hand wherever
the storm hit ready for Whatever
service they could render.
A ninety-mile ride through the
night. over roads hidden by water,
fording almost impossible streams,
was the experience of members of
the Red Cross relief expedition in the
Southern Division. Sweeping out of
the northwest, the hurricane did its
greatest damage at LaGrange and
West Point, Ga, two of the most
prosperous towns in Middle Georgia.
Destruction of communication be-
tween these towns and Atlanta de-
layed news of the fury with which
the wind struck the towns. Late Sun
day evening, news of the disaster
reached Red Cross Headquarters in
Atlanta and a relief expedition was
organized at once With telegraph
wires down trains were not running.
Five automobiles were obtained and
five doctors and four Red Cross
nurses. Red Cross Division executives
and newspaper men began the long
trip across the state.
The expedition was fully equipped
with bandages, splints, medicines and
