100000 FUND SOUGHT
TO HELP RESTORE FRANCE
American Committee Organized to
Aid in Rebuilding Area Devas-
tated by Germans.

The committee on American aid for
the restoration of devastated north
France, appointed through the French
| ministry of fine arts, has started to
raise a fund of 100000 to be used
for general restoration in the 6evas-
tated districts OF France.
Keadqua rters of this committee has
been established in New York. Mrs.
Cecile Sartoris. whose husband, n
grandson of Gen. Ulysses S. Grant. is
now fighting in the French Foreign
Legion, is executive director of the
work. The honorary director is the
Comtesse Regis de Oliverfa and the
executive secretary is Miss Jean Wick.
So far the work done by relief or
ganizations has been temporary In
character. The funds of the new
committee are to be used in construct
i've work of an enduring sort. Through
this work it is hoped to draw more
tightly the ties that already bind the
two republics.
To "Adopt" Towns.
One line of effort is the solicitation
from persons of wealth of large sums to
be devoted to specific restoration work.
The towns of the south of France ale
ready have adopted" many towns in
northern France. Americans will be
asked to undertake similar work.
in the official archives Of the French
government.
A second line of work Is grouped un.
der three slogans-'Take a Town..
Buy a Brick and Help a Home"
Under the first slogan it Is proposed
to solicit from clubs, organizations
and various groups of citizens Tho
second slogan was chosen because 1t
is anticipated that the wounded and
convalescent soldiers Of France will
make a million or more miniature
bricks, each to bear a distinct design.

Help Home" movement the plan il
