Doctor Morehead marshaled American money and Lutheran aid to open a chain of small banks in devastated regions. $250,000 funded tills as locals built homes and bought tools, with farmers first purchasing meals and timber. Two bumper crops emerged, repayments at 4 percent, aiding famine relief nearby. Naval reserves in U S virtually abolished by Denby order. Rev L Nammound formed a diggers brigade to fund parish hall foundations.
