RED CROSS RESCUED
100000 FROM DEATH
Spent S1,20O,OOO for Relief Of
Famine Sufferers in China
Last Year.

To help overcome conditions of acute
distress In five famine stricken prov
lnces Of Northern China, where mil
lions Of persons were affe cted by an
unprecedented shortage OF food, the
American Red Cross during the last
fiscal year spent more than Sl,2OO,OOO,
$1,000 900 of which was contributed d.
recty by National Headquarters and
the remainder by various groups IN
terested In the welfare Of China.
Through the wide relief operations
thus made possible 1t is estimated that
more than 100000 famine sufferers
were saved from starvation.
To the end that similar prompt re-
lief measures by the organization may
always be possible the Red Cross Is
asking continued support by the Amer
lean people by universal renewal OF
membership at the Annual Red Cross
Roll Call, November IL to "a.
The method Of relief employed by
the American Red Cross In It's opera
lions In China was particularly efec-
tive, for In addition to saving hundreds
Of thousands Of lives II provided China
with more than 900 miles of permanent
roads that are sorely needed to pre-
vent a recurrence Of famine. At one
/ time the Red Cross employed $4,000
| Chinese workmen, paying them in food
/ for themselves and dependents, this
food being brought in from Manchuria
/ and elsewhere.

Mile, and the story rises to great
dramatic heights In the depletion

the love of a real man. The story
is by Jeanne Macpherson, who is
