This operation is now virtually completed.

In the course of its work in this region the Red Cross assisted approxi'mately 33,435 people. Within 12 hours of its occurrence the Red Cross had its relief organization completed in the Santa Barbra carthquake region, and had launched measures of permanent rehabilitation for the sufferers from four disasters, the largest number of people, ever in its care in this country. Included in the two "entombments" was the tragedy of Floyd Collins at Cave City, Ky. Here Red Cross chapters set up. canteens and other a)sistance on the spot, while the organization bore the cost of materials utilized in the relief work.

"Supplementing these services are those incident to a number of recent disasters in the United States." continued the report "Outstanding among these was the wreck of the Shanandonh." Chapters at Cambridge and Caldwell, Oho, and field representatives in the vicinities of both the wreck and I the ship's home port at Lakehurst, went to work, assisting and comforting those bereaved in the tragedy, and helping at the scene of the loss. "Other catastrophies in which the Red Cross served include the fire at Shreveport, La, which wiped out nine blocks: the Tennessee forest fire; the tornado at Anniston, Ala; the flood along the Rio Grande River; which affected three towns south of El Paso, and a hailstorm which struck two North Carolina counties and impoverished 100 families." Turning to. Disasters abroad, the report said: "Heading the list was the Chinese flood, which cost 13, 115 lives, and necessitated aid from the Red Sross to 100,000 people. A series of floods and fires in Porto Rico resulted in 14 deaths, and Red Cross assistance to an earth puake at Erzeroun, Turkey, killed 144; a typhoon in the Phillippines which killed 75 people also necessitated our care of 5,000 others; another at Agena, capital of Guam killed only one, but left 186 others in need. the Virgin Islands, the Red Cross rendered assistance following a hurricane which killed 80 people, injured 100, destroyed 1,000 buildings, and in which 1,500 people were assisted by the organization.

We could reduce taxes from $500,000,000 to if we would only act sensibly and safely regarding our sinking fund for the retirement of our public debt."
