At the end of August and early September in 1939, the typhoon which had been generated in the Pacific and landed from the front of Qingdao, causing huge losses to the social economy, life and property of Qingdao. After the typhoon, the Relief Committee of Qingdao, by uniting other departments and all circles of the society, launched a disaster relief action. They adopted different methods of relief, such as raising relief funds, cutting down or exempting from taxation for the rural victims to reduce their losses, and giving immunization to prevent the spread of disease after disasters.
