No amount of preparation can prevent entirely . the occurrence of disasters. What preparation can jlo is lessen the effects of fires, floods, epidemics, , explosions and other catastrophes. ... . ; Perhaps no other organization in Canada has done as much in the way of disaster preparedness as the Canadian Red Cross Society. Within its organization, each province is under the constant stuly f a disaster services committee whose job it -"is to pin-point each community's resources beforehand and fo arrange for the swift flow of aid to the scene of any disaster. Within each province are Red Cross branches, capable of caring for victims of minor disasters at once. Behind the branch is the "..provincial office, ready to help with transport, supplies and experienced workers. And behind each division is the national organization which can draw Letterbox a great many small Labor pal ty meetings. These were the kitui ; where they -put up maybe 12 or 1 more speakers in a night. The big shots travel from meeting to meeting by car. But in every meeting they also give the local speakers a chance to have tht:;r say, as "fillers-in." On the very extreme end if "O Prmtass a ray...

In co-operation with all other agencies, the Red Cross works to cushion the shock, to prevent un-. necessary suffering, to save lives. Its main jobs during disaster are the provision of food, clothing and shelter, medical aid, transportation and the public service- of answering welfare inquiries as to the condition of disaster victims. ; r: I" the first nine months of 1951, the Society : tLprpvided these services at a total of 485 disasters assisting 3843 persons. , The work takes money. This month the Red - Cross is asking every Canadian to give a little. The need for all Red Cross work in the year is $5,222,000 British Columbia objective is $580,000 and' Prince -Rupert's, $5500. It is a Question, not so much of what e can afford, but of what we cannot afford to ignore. Prince Rupert's drive will be concentrated on Tuesday night of next week.
