Family of B. F. Clark, 219 N. 4th Street. This family has worked in 8 different mill villages in the past five years. Clark was a prosperous farmer, before that, but his farm ran down. He says mill families get the habit of moving from place to place. "And mills are writing all the time, giving great inducements and trying to fool you too." Some of the families around here have moved much more than we have. Moving eats up a heap of money." The father and all in group except mother and baby are in the mill. Home bare and ill-kept.

San Antonio newsboys need supervision. Here are three brothers - Sasser family, 729 Porter Street. The youngest one is five years old and makes 30 cents a day. Lawrence is seven years old but "he spends all he earns" his brother says. Boyce [?], makes 75 cents a day, and has a hard time keeping the others at work. Boyce is ten years old. They all start out at 6:00 A.M. and sell until 9:00 and 10:00 P.M. nearly every day except Sunday. I found them selling after ten P.M. Boyce said "We don't go to school; got to sell papers.

"Renters." Itinerant Texas farmers who rent a farm for a year or so and then move on, giving them nomadic habits and everything is temporary. House unpainted and ill-cared for. The children from five years old up pick cotton and help with the farm work, but get little or no schooling. It is estimated by State University that 300,000 children are thus affected in Texas alone. See Hine report Texas. Beginning with the five year old girl here who picks some, all work including the women. The nine year old girl picks one hundred and fifty pounds a day. Father is in town. Farm comprises fifty acres, and they get about twenty bales of cotton this year, which is not a good year. Been here one year. Farm of J.W. Vaughn. Route 6. Location: Corsicana, Texas.

After five years of Service in a War Prison Camp, the uniforms are but patches and rags, while some of the men are barefooted and others have resorted to all kinds of makeshift boots and shoes, which at best do not keep their feet from the ground

The War, the Moths, and Michael. A Bessarabian boy with his Russian hat that the moths wouldn't let alone and the overcoat that wouldn't hold together. He hasn't had any clothes in five years and has had to do his own mending as he doesn't know what happened to his parents, having been lost in a big refugee movement in the near East. He was photographed upon his arrival at an American Red Cross relief station. He insisted on holding his old overcoat and the new pair of American shoes

Back in '61. These Montenegrin veterans were fighting and they are still at it more or less of the time today. During the past five years they fought a common enemy, the Austrians. Now that the Austrians have been driven out, they have picked up their old internal troubles where they were dropped in 1914. As a result of this lack of cohesive government Montenegro today is one of the most destitute countries in Europe despite the fact that its people are the most hardworking, patient and honest. This picture is an illustration of their condition. These men came as far as forty miles to the American Red Cross clothing distribution in Podgoritza on the day this picture was taken

The Street Life of Scutari. A typical scene in the streets of old Scutari in Albania. The buildings are irregular, lop sided affairs. Cattle, pigs and barnyard fowl mix indiscriminately with the people, whose dress was strongly Oriental.

What is there to laugh about. After five years of war, in which they have had to take the men's places in the fields, these three Montenegren maids find no reason to look other than serious. They are the type of hard working peasant people that the American Red Cross is helping to rehabilitate. They have brought several children of their mountain village to a Red Cross dispensary for treatment and are returning home with basketfuls of supplies given to them by the American Relief workers. Note the "pork pie" bonnets, the national headdress of Montenegro

Women Who Know What War Means. A Montenegrin Mother and her daughter on their way to market with the product of their tiny farm outside of Podgoritza. The father and son of this family fell in the war and for five years, these two women have been living off the product of a half acre of rocky land. This crop of hay, they raised and gathered themselves. Now they are toting it on their backs to market. They did not know of the generosity that America was offering their land, and were surprised when stopped by an American Red Cross Officer and told that if they were in need of clothing and food, the Red Cross would supply them. The bundle of garments at the mothers feet was their present from America. It is the first new clothes they have had in five years

Greek Ruins Crumbling Fast. A view from a corner of the Temple of Zeus with the Acropolis in the background. These ruins which for centuries have drawn students and admirers of architecture from all over the world, suffered more inroads from the elements during the past five years than during the same length of time at any period in the past. Recently American Red Cross workers caring for destitute Greek families and children in the old section of the city about these ruins have been warned about the dangers of falling stones from these ancient Greek buildings
