AID FOR CUBA,

The movement in the direction of providing relief fund in this country for the Cubans who are suffering as a result of the cruel war on that is land is spreading everywhere
 During the almost three years of the war many thousands of people have died in Cuba from hunger and disease and thousands of others are still suf- fering The Spanish authorities do not intend to stand in the way of dis people of the United States are asked to do what they can to lessen the sui fering on the unhappy island. There is also some talk of the Legion of the Red Cross sending agents to assist in the distribution of relief and to care for the, sick and suffering.
 The cause of the non-combatants is one that needs immediate attention This country is teeming in richness and yet, within one hundred miles of the coast of Florida, men, women and children are starving to dea h. It fS little enough for the people of the United States to do when they give their money and clothes and food to those who are in peed of such neces- saries. The citizens of Phoenix are in full sympathy with the Cubans ir the field, and they should do what they can to lessen the sufferings of those who are taking no part ip the struggle for liberty, but who would be benefit ted by the freedom of the island from bonds that gall.
