CoSoRHs has means Of knowing the
swlal reality oil the situation ia this
stricken valley. Itneeds no exaggeration.
I!calls aloud ior aid, and the national gov.
eminent is well able 10 domore than it has
doae. Private contributions have been
generous, but they do, not come fast
enough to keep up with the fast moving
food. For nearly six hundred miles
the swollen river flows through misery
and want. For o thousand miles along
The Ohio and its tributaries the people are
appealing for shelter, food and clothing.
They mus. lie cared for, not for day but
probably for weeks. However Congress.
men may feel about it, these stricken coun.
tymen OF ours willhave no constitutional
scruples about accepting national relief.
