If they could see what I have seen, small babies with arms and legs gone and women with their eyes blinded forever, struggling in their misery to live, I know they would rapidly and generously respond. "It will be my duty and privilege to tell America that France is lookingto her for helo in relieving the suffering caused by the brutal German devastations. I know that when the full story is heard there will be no one in America unwilling to do all that he can to help.
