Cardinal Gibbons Asks Aid For Starving Armenians IgMKXJMSEBWBgI This is the message from j q nal) Gibbons kA read at the P ZStIH big meeting in ■ » i jhi Washington in ■Sgt aid of the jEy ~Near East Re--4isgl lit f - T,IP ven ‘ >■ erable primate of t'hurch in America is intensely Inter- (© International.) ested in the Cardinal Gibbons. w ‘‘ k * the Near East Relief will make to the country in February for funds to support its work among the starving peoples of that stricken land. To the Washington meeting he wrote: , “Advices and information coming from the Near East cannot be doubted. There is great actual suffering and famine. These people, recently become Independent and released from bitter thraldom, cannot support themselves. And the Christian and common instincts of humanity which have prompted the people of ( the United States during the last two years to relieve the distress and needs, especially of the Near East, must not be allowed to grow cold and be diminished. “I hope we shall all unite in this present emergency and be able to collect sufficient funds to enable these peoples.to live and work until next summer brings them permanent relief and subsistence. I call upon all to respond generously to the appeal now being made and trust that the committee will be gratified with the results." $5 PER MONTH FEEDS ORPHAN - Cleveland H. Dodge Shows What Near East Relief Can Do in Efficient Purchasing. Buying in wholesale lots and under the most favorable market conditions, Near East Relief of 1 Madison avenue, New York city, with representatives in every state of the Union, has been able to baffle the high cost of living so far , as relief supplies for the suffering millions of the Near East are concerned. [ Cleveland H. Dodge, treasurer, in a statement shows that the committee is able to provide food for the suffering people of the Near East at prices much lower than the average charge here. | A donation of $5 per month will provide food for one orphan, $lO per month provides not only food, but also clothes and shelter for one orphan, and for sls per month attendance at school is assured to each orphan in addition to food, clothing and shelter. I In the appeal for funds to save the starving remnants of the Armenians and other western Asia peoples, Near East Relief Is inviting tjie American public to “adopt” an orphan at the rates given here. Over 250,000 homeless children are in need of help in the Nenr East. Women's organizations, ' lodges, churches and social clubs are , responding to the appeal by adopting quotas of orphans for support over a definite period. •
