$1,441,486 A YEAR’S
DISASTER RELIEF COST
Red Cross Aided 145,000 Vic
tims in United States—Losses
Total $30,000,000.
Seventy-two disasters, with hun
dreds reported killed and Injured, and
more than 145.000 either homeless or
requiring assistance, called for emer
gency relief measures and the ex
penditure of $1,441,480.30 by the
American Red Cross during the fiscal
year ending June 30, 1922, according
to a statement based on the forth
coming annual report of the Red
Cross. The greatest toll of life was
taken by hurricane and tornado,
while the overflowing of rivers, the
breaking of darns and torrential rains
drove the greatest number of people
from their homes. The property loss
was estimated at more than $30,-
000,000.
The year’s disasters reported In
cluded twenty-six floods, nineteen tor
nadoes, fifteen fires, four epidemics,
two theatre collapses, two shipwrecks
(one an airship), and a bridge col
lapse, mine explosion, railway colli
sion, and a drought. Of the floods In
the United States that at San An
tonio, Texas, caused the greatest
property loss, $6,000,000 and the high
mark of fatalities, 100, while the
flood in the vicinity of Vicksburg and
Natchez, Miss., forced 31,000 persons
from their homes.
A National Calamity
In the Red Cross disaster relief
records there will probably remain
for many years one calamity which
touched nearly every state with a
sense of horror and of loss. This was
the distressing collapse of the roof
of the Knickerbocker Theatre in
Washington, D. C., resulting in nine
ty-six deaths and 125 persons Injured.
Situated in the center of the beauti
ful Northwest residential section, this
motion picture theatre was patronized
by many persons of prominence both
in the official and civil life of the Na
tional Capital, whose family and per
sonal connections radiated out over
the entire country. The horror was
intensified by a terrific snowstorm
which, though it retarded, did not
block Red Cross relief.
Airship Crash Finds Aid at Hand
The crash and destruction of the U.
S. Army’s large airship Roma in Vir
ginia last February with the loss of 34
officers and men and 11 injured was
the first disaster of its kind to call for
Red Cross relief in this country. The
suddenness of the accident tested the
preparedness ef the organization and
of the Chapter at Hampton, Va., but
the response was immediate and relief
furnished the survivors, also funds for
the expenses of relatives of the dead,
who came from long distances to claim
their own.
In the year’s oversea record for aid
rendered by the Red Cross are two
fires in the Philippines, one In Manila,
which destroyed 1,000 homes, with a
loss of $1,500,000 and 5.000 persons
made homeless, the other at Tonlo,
which drove 3,000 from their dwellings.
In medical relief that was quick and
effective the smallpox epidemic in San
Domingo, which had a total of 22,000
cases with 225 deaths in a single day,
tested the readiness of the Red Cross
for action, and the same can be said
of the San Domingo hurricane, which
killed 12 persons and reduced the
homes of 182 persons to wreckage. A
flood In San Salvador, v.lth a death
toll of 50 and 2.000 refugees, was also
effectually handled by the local Chap
ter of the American Red Cross.
Relief Machinery Perfected
The year has seen the further per
fection of disaster relief administra
tive measures in every field of Ameri
can Ked Cross activity, a/id that the
work may be carried on to still greater
accomplishments the American Red
Cross is appealing for widespread re
newal of membership during the an
nual Roll Call, to be conducted this
year from Armistice Day (November
11) to, and including. Thanksgiving
Day (November bu).

How Hotter Than Pills?
The question has been asked. In
what way are Chamberlain’s Tablets
superior to the ordinary cathartic and
liver pills? Our answer is, they are
easier and more pleasant to take and
their effect is so gentle that one hard
ly realizes that it is produced by a med
cine. Then, they not only move the
bowels but improve the appetite and
strengthen the digestion. Advt.
