STAR FUND FOR
FIRE VICTIMS
Continued from First Page.)

-
responding with splendid generosity to
the STARS call for aid for the suffer
ers of the High street disaster. Though
the STAR fund was started only last
night, 1t has already reached a sum oil
more than $1,000, and subscriptions are
pouring into the office with pledges OF
many more to come.
That the need of many Of the sur
| vivors viii be dire in the extreme is
shown from the fact that in many
cases the dead girls were the sole sup
ports Of homes. In more than one
home the need of the help that the
STAR fund will give Is so immediate
that aid will be imperative before the
week end. Some lack coal for the cold
days that are imminent. Some others
cannot foresee food and clothing as
soon as their slender store of savings
has run out, and some have not even
savings with which to pay the funeral
expenses of their dead.
That Newark will continue to re-
spond nobly to this call Of it's bereayed
poor there is already no doubt. Send
your own contributions to the STAR
fund quickly and it will the quicker
begin its part in the work of relieving
distress.
The members of the committee who
have kindly consented to supervise the
distribution of the fund: Gottfried
Kruger, Alderman William Penning-
ton, Frank I. Liveright, Austen H. Nc
