"a Good Sign"
PITTsFIELD, Mass, Jan. i5-In the
course OF mass meeting last night to aid
Armenian sufferers, ex-senator Dawes
said: sympathy for human suffering is
calculated 10 stir up-one's best feelings
ana impulses. IL IL grieyous enough
when this Is caused by famine OF pesti-
lence, but IL especially appeals to man
when the suffering is caused by man him
self. Az first the news that the Red Gross
had been forbidden 20 do its work OF
mercy was disheartening; but after all.
IL Is n good sign. IL Is the last throes Of
n crumbling dynasty; the last struggle OF
despair. 1t will make clear that the funds
must not be distributed through the sui.
