Title: Yugoslavia quake survivors moved to aid centers.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: P-29715 YUGOSLAVIA QUAKE SURVIVORS MOVED TO AID CENTERS SKOPJE, Yugoslavia -- A huge tent-city was raised and medical centers were established in areas surrounding earthquake-shattered Skopje, Yugoslavia, where about 80 per cent of the city was ruined and thousands died during 15 seconds of destruction on July 26. Protestant Churches around the world rushed relief supplies to the area and church-workers joined medical units and rescue teams in aiding survivors. In early airlifts, Church World Service, relief agency for the National Council of Churches, sent tents, blankets, medicines and water purification tablets. The U.S. agency also pledged $100,000 to a World Council of Churches appeal for $500,000 for the relief effort. The most seriously injured Skopje residents were removed by stretcher (top photo) to planes that rushed them to Belgrade hospitals. Those who miraculously escaped death or injury retrieved as many personal belongings as possible (bottom photo) from the rubble and moved temporarily to parks on the outskirts of the city where relief reception centers were opened.

Title: Swiss holiday for orphans.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: P-29757 SWISS HOLIDAY FOR ORPHANS GENEVA -- A holiday in Switzerland for Algerian orphans whose lives were blighted by bitter civil strife in their native land. Sixty Moslem children -- aged 6 to 14 -- were given a month’s holiday by Protestant churches of the world. U.S. denominations participated through Church World Service, overseas aid agency of the National Council of Churches. At top left, the children are all smiles on their arrival at Geneva’s airport. At top right, they find Swiss sunshine and Swiss Protestants a happy combination in making them feel at home abroad. The children stayed at a refurbished hotel that had been abandoned; a congregation at Corseaux, near Lake Leman, suggested the holiday and rehabilitated the hotel. HEKS, Swiss Protestant inter-church agency, provided the furnishings. At lower left, they enjoy a break for lunch and a briefing by their director. The children enjoyed rides on the electric train to Vevey and a series of automobile excursions. At lower right, an Algerian orphan, touched by the wonder of it all, contemplates a new world opening up before his eyes on the Swiss holiday. His vacation, and that of the others, was made possible through the cooperation of the Christian Committee for Service in Algeria, Church World Service, the World Council of Churches, and other agencies.
