fcient funds for incidental expenses In
its campaign.

MANY APPEALS FROM
SOLDIERS FAMILIES
Interest On Behalf of
Dependents.
SAY RICHMOND is INDIFFERENT
Women Left With Families to Look
After Are Having Serious Time
While Husbands Are On Border or
In Camp.

Reports to the American Section of
the War Relief Association of vir-
ginia. OF which Mrs william Wilson
Sale Is chairman, are showing an ac-
tive interest on the part of the cities
OF the State in the campaign to help
the families Of the soldiers who are
now serving in the First and Second
Regiments on the Mexican border
Yesterday Mrs. Sale heard from Lu-
ray, Radford and Pulaski, the COM
mittees in those cities having given
assistance to a number of families who
were in distress
It Is regrettable, Mrs. Sale said. that
the people of Richmond are not re-
spending to the call to render as
sistance to wives and mothers and
families OF the troops. Elsewhere, she
stated, the support has been hearty.
and the Indifference of the Richmond
people is poor example to hold up
to the remainder of the State
Daily Mrs. Sale is receiving calls for
assistance The most distressing thing
about the requests are that the parties
are not and have not been objects Of
charity. In most cases they are peo-
pie whose head of the family has
commanded a salary of from eighty
to ninety eollars a month. With the
AioA away AAcy are HAFlHk T. ulInCulI

order. In no case, however, does Il
require q great amount to help the
people out Of their immediate en-
barrassment
But the great number of calls that
are coming in are being increased
daily as the men are kept longer from
their employment and funds are
needed TO defray the expenses OF the
various families The committee is
not making campaign for funds.

A p. Wilmer, treasurer of the Amer

his farm for as long as they need to
stay, and she also has advtces Of ar
instance where lady lie taking care
Of mother and two children at her
