  • KBD 10: Davis Organizes Quake Victims' Self-Help
    KBD 10: Davis Organizes Quake Victims' Self-Help Katharine had taken a long-postponed, much-needed vacation away from Bedford and was in the resort town of Siracusa (Syra- © cuse), Sicily Dec. 28, 1908, when a major earthquake hit the nearby Messina region. Most vacationers packed their bags and fled but Davis did just the opposite. She unpacked all her gar- ments that could be ripped into bandages, rushed with them to the nearest medical facility and began helping the injured people who were brought in or straggled in from devastated areas. After long service in the hospital, she took a break but saw on the streets a social problem going unaddressed. Hundreds of quake refugees were wandering about homeless, with no shoes and no work, with little clothing and less hope. Without portfolio, she persuaded the mayor to open a vacant building and to get her sewing machines. Davis recruited homeless women to sew simple clothing for themselves and other refugees. She organized a group of cobblers to make shoes. At first, Davis paid the seamstresses and shoemakers modest wages out of pocket. Similarly, she set up work gangs of adult male refugees repairing and building roads and simple houses. Not only were clothes, shoes, shelter and roads needed on an emergency basis, but the quake victims needed pur- poseful activity to prevent their distress turning into paralyzing depression undermining their will to recover. When her own funds ran out, she collected contributions from the few remaining Americans and from friends abroad. For months, she ran a vast emergency enterprise of employment, re- lief and reconstruction.
