Hurtling Makes Strong Appeal in of Starving Artneni&its. * Tftore are so many Culls upon the guiierosity of c lit* Aiucrioan |>eopl? at this time that one hardly knows in which direction to tlrst turn to give uitl. And yet, when the cry of hunger from a starving people ??f Western Asia (Domex to a community enjoying the comforts of life, we cannot turn a (leaf ear to the ap|>eat. The terrible condition of the Ar menians, Syrians, ami (?reek Christians of Western Aula iih a result of the war, the untold suffering of these homeless, destitute exiles tind refugees, cannot Ik.? fully tohl In words. Netfrly three million are now facing starvation. Four hundred thousand orphans are today destitute in lllhlo Lands, Unlike the woiuen and child ren of Belgium. France and other lauds these people cannot expect an appro priation from the Government for re lief because they are scattered raee? to Which the United Statoj? canot le gally make a loan. These exiles have struggled through .the that and suffering of an Kaatern Summer only to face the more terrible ordeal of the rigorous winter, without < fo?M| and clything. Ih-cad winners gen erally have perished through cruel mas sacre, deiKutatlou or In the army Yet practically all who. arc new destitute were self supporting before the war and the cruel treatment of hostile ua tlons. Their only hojie now to live through the winter is in American gen eroelty. It will take thirty millions of dollars to Iteglu to. relieve this sit uation. ' *? . t*rwldent Wilson has apiniated tp the American jteople to hear the cry of those, women and children, who with out their natural protectors, are facing starvation. Unless (here is a response there Is nothing left for them but ex termination.' There are more than a hundred brave American missionaries in Turkey, Caucassus and Peresla who are standing by these wretelied suffer ers,- - Shall we help io save these thrw miilUnis of Armenians ami other Christ ians in these regions or by our failure td'do something acquiesce in the policy of extermination adopted by Germany and Turkey? Many lives were saved last winter, and some of the warm-hearted people of this community responded to a i>er sonal. appeal and had a part in this good work. ThLs winter we are as sured suffering and death will be much grealgt onleas immediate aid bo given. WkP President saytK "in vieir of- the urgent need I call again upon the peo ple of the United States to make .such further contribution as they feel dis posed, in their sympathy and generos ity for the ajd of these suffering j>eo ples." He alBO sets apart November lot h and 11th as special relief days. According to information received from the National Executive (Commit tee the carefully computed proportion ate share that normally shold be con tributed by the town of Camden is eleven hundred dollars. This may seem a large amount to some and yet we a re * assured that if every community jravtv the full amount^ asked of it, it would only then allow eight eenta a day for the mulntalnence of one per son. - - If every one who is staying at home and sharing little of the suffering and hardship of this titanic struggle Should "do his and her bit" for the relief of Hufforing humanity we could then easily do our full share. The National Committee urges some one m "every community to take Xhe lead ill bringing information to the. public and organising local committees of relief. Conscious of the obligation resting upon us 1 have volunteered to undertake this work and to act as chairman of & local committee. I have appealed to my own congregation and ,now through the courtesy of the Chron icle am making this first appeal to the pegpitfj of Camden to answer this call. First I would be glad for any per sons who are willing to serve on such a. 'local committee of relief to give me theif names ot once. V Second I)o not wait for the commit tee to come to you but wnd help In the'shape of an offering to me as chalr muu or to i In- < Mi n mi ifir which lias kindly consented to receive contribu tions for me. The majority of these people are even now barely subsisting upon roots, leaves -and carrion. The story told by the missionary Jtwt returned from Syria of the tiny girl with the face of an bid woman, sitting In the doorway of a deserted .cottage, who, as she fock ed -back ? and forth droned the cry, "I am hungry, T am hungry," is but one Instance in many thousand similar ones in thftt land., Will you not help. t<> save human life?
