E-3538 Extremely RARE WWI Flour Sack sent to
Belgium to feed the starving citizens ofthe occupied
areas. The Germans were confiscating food and the Belgian
already were importing 75% of their food prior to WWI. The
Germans would not let the refugees go into Germany, nor
would they let them pass through the front lines into
France. Herbert Hoover negotiated with the British ,
French and Germans to allow this humanitarian aid.
Outrageously rare item of early US aid. Between 1914 and
1919, the CRB operated entirely with voluntary efforts and
was able to feed 11,000,000 Belgians by raising the
necessary money, obtaining voluntary contributions of
food, shipping the food past the German submarine
blockades and army occupied areas, and controlling the
food distribution in Belgium. The CRB shipped 697,116,000
pounds of flour to Belgium and evidence indicates that
sugar and grains were also sent. The flour was packaged in
cotton
flour sacks by American mills. The movement of these
bags throughout Belgium was carefully controlled by the CRB
since cotton was in great demand for the manufacture of
German ammunition and also because the CRB feared that the
flour sacks would be taken out of Belgium, refilled with
inferior flour, and resold as relief flour. As a result, the
empty flour sacks were carefully accounted for and
distributed to professional schools, sewing workrooms,
convents, and individual artists. Separate from the trade
schools of Belgium, the professional schools specialized in
training girls to sew, embroider, and make lace, and the
sewing workrooms were large centers established in the major
Belgian cities during the war to provide work for the
thousands of unemployed. Girls and women made famous Belgian
lace, embroidered textiles and repaired and remade clothing
in these workrooms. The flour sacks were used by these
various Belgian groups to make new clothing, accessories,
pillows, bags, and other functional items. $220 |

E-3278 Extremely RARE WWI Flour Sack sent to
Belgium to feed the starving citizens ofthe occupied
areas. The Germans were confiscating food and the Belgian
already were importing 75% of their food prior to WWI. The
Germans would not let the refugees go into Germany, nor
would they let them pass through the front lines into
France. Herbert Hoover negotiated with the British ,
French and Germans to allow this humanitarian aid.
Outrageously rare item of early US aid. Between 1914 and
1919, the CRB operated entirely with voluntary efforts and
was able to feed 11,000,000 Belgians by raising the
necessary money, obtaining voluntary contributions of
food, shipping the food past the German submarine
blockades and army occupied areas, and controlling the
food distribution in Belgium. The CRB shipped 697,116,000
pounds of flour to Belgium and evidence indicates that
sugar and grains were also sent. The flour was packaged in
cotton
flour sacks by American mills. The movement of these
bags throughout Belgium was carefully controlled by the CRB
since cotton was in great demand for the manufacture of
German ammunition and also because the CRB feared that the
flour sacks would be taken out of Belgium, refilled with
inferior flour, and resold as relief flour. As a result, the
empty flour sacks were carefully accounted for and
distributed to professional schools, sewing workrooms,
convents, and individual artists. Separate from the trade
schools of Belgium, the professional schools specialized in
training girls to sew, embroider, and make lace, and the
sewing workrooms were large centers established in the major
Belgian cities during the war to provide work for the
thousands of unemployed. Girls and women made famous Belgian
lace, embroidered textiles and repaired and remade clothing
in these workrooms. The flour sacks were used by these
various Belgian groups to make new clothing, accessories,
pillows, bags, and other functional items. $195
