Everywhere in Central and Eastern Europe American relief workers have penetrated, and their work has received the hearty cooperation of Allied military chieftens. Starvation and disease have been the enemies fought by the American Red Cross, which sends units fully equipped with food, clothing and medical supplies to fight the scourage resulting from the wide-spread destitution left by the war. Among these who have proven themselves ardent friends of the Red Cross is General Giacena Ferrero of the Italian Army in charge of the Albanian forces. He was snapped for this picture in front of the Italian headquarters with Major Robert C. Denison of New Haven, Conn., head of the Red Cross mission at Tirana
