soon to be there in such great numbers
Some 1900 towns and villages have
been destroyed in France. In her de-
yastated regions, men, women and chill
dren are homeless and suffering for the
barest necessities of life. We ought at
the earliest moment to provide these
people with the simplest essentials to
begin life anew. They need clothing,
agricultural implements, domestic ami
mails. especially horses and cows. seeds.
fertilizers. tools, bedding, stoves and
the elementary materials with which
to cover themselves by day and by
night. Some idea can be formed of the
amount involved in such an undertake
ing with the knowledge that Mr..
Hoover through his magnificent or
ganization, has advanced for govern
ments and from private subscriptions
100000. 900 for relief in Belgium. If
there were no thought of protection and
provision for our own people in France,
can we hesitate to provide generously
from our plenty that we may show
some appreciation of our everlasting
debt to the people Of our sister repub-
lico
The Russian Problem
A tremendous Russian problem con-
fronts the Red Cross. We have debt
to pay to Russia as we'll as to France.
The situation as regards amelioration
of suffering on the long Russian battle
line is deplorable. On the whole 1000
miles of front there are only 5000 ambu :
lances, whereas in France. on front
Of 400 miles. there are $4,000 ambu-
lanccs. Succor must be rushed to Rus
STA. There are problems of encoura ge-
ment and of material aid confronting
us there as great in their way as await
Us IN France. We must be up and doing
all Of us, every single American. Our
thought Is to go to Russia with as
much relief as we can assemble. The
heartening problem is very pressing
there, as the whole country must un-
derstand by this time. It is especially
necessary now that Russia is in the
throes Of revolutionary aftermath I
am firmly convinced that the Russian
democracy can be relied on to keep its
head to maintain what 1t has snatch
ed from autocracy, but it must be
helped. and helped quickly.
