Disaster Appeal R.E. Glendening, chapter Chairman E. Roland Harriman, national chairman, has issued an appeal for an additional for disaster/? tunds. “The two| heavy disaster months are May> and iluhe. Each chapter is urged as a minimum to meet its. fair share of the $6,000,000 disaster fund; I ani certain ;your chapter is appreciative of the unusual conditions which have cojifrdnted the organization this spring. We do need thd disaster funds promptly,” liarrlman urged. . ' .! • Raymond M. Foley, housing and home (inance agency administrator and federal disaster relief coordinator, today urged a generous nationwide response to the Red Cross Appeal for an additional s'G,oob,ooi) for relief and rehabilitation of victims of the recent tornado disaster in Arkansas, Tennessee, Mississippi, Missouri and Alabama. "Serious problems confront areas in those states in providing emergency and rehabilitation for people whose i}oines(have been destroyed, 'andl in restoring essential'services resulting from severe destruction to communities, schools, and other facilities,” stated Foley. “Housing the homeless,! feeding the hungry, providing cl6thing,‘ and assisting in meeting emergency and rehabilitation needs, such as getting families, mltrqhaiits, and others Witli little or no resources back on their feet, is a igiant task lor which the Red Cross is emirieptly qualified. Hpwever, the regular Red Cross drive could pol antici(pate a catastrophe of this magnitude. and if the tornado disastei victims are to be cared for, the Red Cross will need the additibtml $6,()()o,0h0 disaster fund it has re quested, for these samt* services (must be provided for the victims of the recent floods in Nebraska and lowa. “While federal funds have been made available for restoration of basic community facilities' and' for otjier types Qf emergency rehabilitation, they do not suhsjitiite? for ithq human and personal help ptR yidgd by the Red Cross.

Then it’s fired. And when that happens, a drop of gasoline certainly lets loose power. This isn’t something that happens in a “car of the future.” \ J It happens in a Buick Fireball 8 Engine today. It’s a high-compression engine. It’s a valve-in-head engine. But it’s also a Fireball in performance as well as name. And it puts extra power under the hood —and extra miles in the fuel back in the gas tank. 1 I Now, power is great, but what goes with it? Mister, that’s something you ought to find out—and soon.
