Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Relief Work in Eastern Macedonia Immediately after the arrival in Athens on October 23rd of the first group of tho American Red Cross Commission to Greece, it was learned that the situation of the civilian population of Eastern Macedonia, a territory which had just been abandoned by the Bulgarian armies after two years of occupation, was desperately bad, and that if emergency relief was to be brought to the Greeks anywhere, it should be here. But we had as yet 110 supplies and 110 transport, and among our personnel in Athens and on the way there were none trained as social workers. We were therefore confronted at the first moment by three questions: (1) Precisely what was the work of greatest urgency in Eastern Macedonia; (2) Where could we get the needed supplies of food and clothing; and (3) What means could be improvised for distributing such supplies where they wore most needed. Fortunately for us, the second question was provisionally answered for us 111 Athens. Among the American Red Cross officers who had accompanied us from Taranto to Athens was Colonel Robert W. Perkins, the Commissioner to Italy, who had been sent over to adjust the affairs of the Commission to Serbia, whose headquarters were at Salonica.
