Drought Relief Committee Named For County Work The dire need of twenty-on- e states in the drought stricken area causes the local chapter of the American Red Cross to take active steps to raise Carbon A county's quota of J1200.00. committee consisting of Earl P. Hills, Mrs. R. M. Rice and VV. W. Christensen, was named to devise ways and means for on or more entertainments to raise fmuis for the Drought Relief. the Heretofore, Mississippi flood was the largest peace-tim- e disaster of the Ra-program Cross, wherein they served 170 counties In the flooded area and helped 930,000 people. This was a miniature project in comparison to the overwhelming need of the drought stricken territory, which consists of over 1000 coun ties involving twenty-on- j statey. The rural population alor.o in this district exceeds 17,000.000 people. The Red Cross has done much already that has brought permanent relief. The stock situation has been saved in western Texas by the planting of wheat in the fall. The Red Cross furnished the seed and the farmers planted it in desperation rather than !i hope. Unusual and very favorable climatic conditions made possible a most amazing growth so the fields are green with wheat. There are now no starving ani mate in Texas, but there is a tremendous problem to preserve the live stock in Arkansas. The Red Cross is now furnishing fe-- : for animals in Arkansas un'.u the farmers can obtain loar.q from the department of agriculture. In the eastern mountain districts of Kentucky, reports a Red Cross field worker, the families are nearly all large ones and in a destitute condition. Many of the smaller children were completely without clothes and the older ones were clan only in rag.i. Even some of the parents were eo scantily clothed that thoy hid from visitors rather than reveal the depth of poverty into which the drought had plunged them. Naked and starving children would and starving animals make a heart-fel- t appeal to every citieen if they could be made to in the realize the condition stricken states, say.? drought Mrs. B. W. Dalton, chairman of the local Red Cross chapter. "People in Carbon County "o not realize the amount of sufferareas ing in the drought-trlckein the central states," said Mrs. repreMary Alstn Allen, field sentative for the American Red Cross, who recently visited Carbon county. "In one county alone In Arkansas, 41 per cent of the people are facing actual starvation, aad In another county thare in are 572 children desperately need of everything from food 'o clothing," she stated. Death, Injuries SAM JENSEN KILLED; EVAN'S AND STEVENSON INJURED IN COLUMBIA MINE ARCHDEACON W. F. UL'LKLEY WILL VISIT HELPER MISSION SUNDAY o Fall Of Coal At Columbia Deals A mine accident which cojt of one and Injured two the life occurred at the Columbia mine Saturday noon. Sam Jensen, 28, was killed; Tally Evans, 30, suffered the loss of his left hand and Glen Stevenson, 22, suffered bruisee when the three were caught by a fall of coal as they were loading a car. Abe Crawford, 20, at work with the group at the time of the coal fall, escaped Injury and ran for aid. The mine was idle Saturday and the four men working a mile and a half from the entrance, were the only occupants. Jensen was dead when the rescue team led by Walter E. Knox, reached safety engineer, the scene. Evans probably owea hfs life to the resourcefulness of Stevenson, who, although pinned beneath tons of coal waa able to seize Evans arm and by applying ' pressure stopped the flow of blood. Apparently Evans had his hand on the coal car when the crash came, and was thus caught between the car and coal, severing the member. At the Deseret rflortuary it was discovered that Evans' injuries consisted of a broken back, both legs broken and badly crushed shoulders. His body was extricated quickly, as was Eeans rescue men labored howeVer, two hours before Stevenson could be freed. After receiving treatment at the mine rescue car which has been stationed at Colunbia for the past week, Evans was removed to Salt Lake for medical care. Stevenson was given tirat aid and later returned to ills home. The exact cause of the fall of top coal could not be determined by mine officials, since no recent blasting had taken place at the site. Evans and Stevenson were no doubt saved from mora prions injury or death by the fact that the mine car broke the fall of coal. Funeral services for Jensen were held at the Cleveland ward with chapel Tuesday afternoon, interment in the Cleveland ceme- tery. The deceased was born June at Ferron, a son of Hans Pete and Elvlda Jensen. He went to Columbia seven years ago and had been employed by the Columbia coal company during his residence there. He Is survived by his widow, Mrs. Gladys Jensen, and four children, Beth, Ernest, Ronald and Marie.
