King Emmanuel of Italy:
IT am greatly shocked at the news OF
the terrible calamity which has fallen
upon Italy and her people. 1 beg to
assure your majesty of my own sincere
sympathy and that of the government
and people of the United States in this
moment of widespread suffering and
national grief"
Decision by the President to defer
making an appeal for contributions for
relief of the sufferers by the earth
quake in Italy in his capacity as presi-
dent of the American Red Cross was
announced at the White House last
evening. Suggestion that the Presi-
dent make such an emergency appeal
was made to him by Maj. Gen. George
w. Davis, U. s. A. chairman OF the
central committee of the American Red
Cross, after a long-distance telephone
consultation with the executive ooaro
of the society.
Waits for Rport.
President Wilson decided that II
would be best to postpone announce
ment Of any definite plan of action until
further word could be procured from
American Ambassador Page at Rome
This course was deemed wise because
of a voluntary cabled report from Am
bassador Page to the State Department
| to the effect that the Italian govern
ment would not accept offers of aid
from foreign governments. A cable
was dispatched to the American am
lbassador through the State Depart.
ment asking for certain further infor-
nation which would assist the REQ
Cross in reaching decision.
Both the national headquarters an6
the New York Office of the American
Red Cross have received number OF
liberal money contributions for the re,
lief of those made destitute by the
great calamity Of January IS. AS was
announced Immediately following the
receipt of the news of the earthquake
the American Red Cross will receive
