Poland's tribute to America. These little flag bearers, whose banners carries the name of their school, are among the 20,000 Polish children who marched on July 4 in honor of the American Independence Day. Unable to buy American flags in the stores, their ingenuity came to the front and hundreds of red, white and blue paper flags like those in the picture were produced. When the Star Spangled Banner was played, the hundreds of waving paper flags rustled like the leaves of a great forest

A Polish Windmill. The wide-winged windmill is as common in Poland as in Holland. Wherever one travels in this land of plains and levels, somewhere on the landscape he sees the great arms of the mill, swinging majestically around, or standing even more majestically quiet. According to reports from American Red Cross relief workers in the devastated regions of Eastern Poland, where hunger and disease have followed on the heels of destruction, the damage done to the windmills has constituted one of the most serious losses to the country, for it was in these mills that all the grain of the district was ground. Even when the ruined farm land is restored and crops are again harvested, the mills will still be missing

Poland's tribute to America. The rag pickers in the old quarter of Poland's capital, Warsaw, in slum-life which makes the east side of New York seem a luxurious place. Nearly half the population is crowded into the quarter known as the old city, but which is really the slums, although it does not form that large a percentage of the area of the city by a great measure. The rag pickers in the market place of the old quarter are among those who spend their lives in squalor. This section of the city is shown in the Red Cross travel story "Poland's tribute to America"
