Secretary sherman Says the People Are Not
Responding to the Cuban Aid Call.
WASHINGTON, Jan. Ill am sorry
TO say that up to date it looks as If the
people of the United States were not
after all so very much interested in
Cuba" This is the comment of Secre-
tary sherman on the failure of the
public to respond to the presidents
appeal for aid to save the starving
concentrates. 1t is no longer possible
to conceal the fact that the contribu-
tions to this humanitarian purpose
have been practically nil. The people
have been asked to save the lives of
women and children. They have
turned deaf ear. Politicians, bust
ness men, newspapers and churches
have all been equally Indifferent.
Some other plan seems to be necessary.
The American people are warm hearted
and generous. If they have not been
so in this case there is believed to be
some reason for it, government officials
and senators are now explaining At
the same time they are taking pains
to state that the government will not
appropriate funds for these purposes.
