The Belgian baby fund campaign
which has been in progress IN De
troit since the FIRST OF thu week has
been abandoned and the funds thus
far collected Will be turned over 20
the Red Cross. The money viii be
q part OF a great patriotic fund 10
b used in various humanitarian
ways
This action was decided upon Fri
day night az a joint meeting OF the
Red Cross committee and the Bel
Rian baby campaign committee II
followed the receipt - telegram
from the commission for the relief
in Belgium that tbe United States
government had assumed tre work
OF feeding people OF devastated Be-
GUM.
The Belga oommittee had set
out 20 raise 5000 900 and the fund
was growing more rapidly than it's
sponsors had anticipated. Reports
received Friday from various COM
mittees showed that s34s,is2.5s hao
already been raised. II was esti-
mated that at that time possibly
slOo. 900 vas pledged. As complete
reports were. not available.
When the committee received in
formation that the government
would do the work that individuals
had undertaken the committee was
in a quandary. but soon a telegram
came from Eliot Wadsworth- 81 the
Red Cross. quoting President VIII
sons message relative 70 the war
relief work OF the Red Cross Then
patriotic fund was established
with the amount subscribed for the
Belgian relief as a nucleus.
Members OF the committee a. once
cot into communication With per
sons who had donated 10 the Bel
gian fund and all OF the large do
