KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS
 TO RAISE $l,OOO,OOO

The Supreme Council of the Knights of Columbus recently inaugurated a campaign for raising the sum of $1,000,000.00 to be used in looking after the spiritual welfare as well as to furnish recreation for the Catholic men in the army and navy.
 This sum will be raised mainly within the order. In a letter ad- dressed to the various councils an nouncing the decision of the Supreme Council Supreme Knight James Flah- erty states:
 "A million men will soon be in con centration camps preparing for war. Thirty to 40 per cent, of this number will be men of our faith, many of them members of our order, and all ready to give the last full measure of devotion to our common country. Thousands of loved ones at home will be anxiously awaiting news, and ,n their prayers asking protection for the husbands, sons and brothers who have offered their lives for their flag.
 The selection of the Knights of Columbus as the official agency of the Catholic service in the army and navy is direct result of the efficient work done for the soldiers on the Mexican border. In selecting the Knights of Columbus for this work the war de- partment places the great Catholic fraternal order on the same basis as the Y. M. c. A., which takes care of all the non-Catholic religious and social welfare work in the army and navy.
 The Knights of Columbus will work in cooperation with the official Cath olic chaplains and will also have to pay the expenses of many other un- official chaplains. The Knights will have to erect Catholic centers and suitable places for the celebration of Mass in each of the sixteen canton ments to be established in this coun- try. In these Knights of Columbus centers all men in the service will be made most heartily welcome.
 This is the largest task ever under taken by the Knights of Columbus, and, as already said, the responsibili- ty is very great. No doubt the Knights will vindicate the confidence reposed on them by the Federal and Ecclesiastic authorities. The Knights of Columbus will do their share, and every other Catholic organization and every Catholic person will see the need as patriots and as Catholics as assisting in this work.

AMERICAN RED CROSS
 DOING A GREAT WORK

The Red Cross War Council has ap- propriated $300,000, to be expended in July for relief work in the Near East, through the American Commit tee for Armenian and Syrian Relief. The Red Cross will appropriate a like amount for each of the five remaining months of this year if the work of the Committee is not sufficiently ham pered by the Turkish Government to make further grants inadvisable.
 The American Committee in the only organization outside of the Red Crescent, Controlled by the Turkish Government), which is allowed to ad- minister relief in certain portions of the Turkish Empire. Its field of operations includes not only Asia Minor and those portions of Armenia and Syria that are in the Ottoman Empire, but it also includes large section of Armenia now dominated by the Russian army, as we'll as the Rus sian Caucasus, Persia, Mesopotamia and portions of Egypt and Macedo- mia, into which refugees, Armenian, Syrian and Greek have fled in large numbers. With the exception of the work being done by the Jewish Relief Committee, the American Committee is the only agency organized for af- fording relief in this great area.
 The making of this appropriation by the Red Cross is in accord with the policy of the Red Cross to cooperate with relief agencies in the theatre of war to the end that there shall be the utmost aid afforded, while overlap ping of effort is as far as possible avoided. The appropriation is made upon application of James L. Barton, Chairman, and c. V. Vickrey, Secre- tary, respectively, of the American Committee for Armenian and Syrian Relief, and, after investigation, is thoroughly approved by the Red Cross Committee on cooperation, of which Judge Robert s. Lovett is chairman

pie in Western Asia whose death can be prevented only by direct and con- tinued help from this American Com mittee. These people have been ex- pelled from their homes and are in re- gions where self support is practical ly impossible. From one town alone there is call to provide for 10000 fatherless children. The estimated number of orphans in another district is given by the American Consul as 10000. In the entire field the mum. Der of orphaned children is estimated to run into the hundreds of thousands.
 In the Caucasus, the American Committee has found it imperative to provide employment for women, many of whom have lost their husbands, their children and all their material possessions. These women take wool in the rough and make it into gar ments for other substitutes.
 While it is true that the larger part of the American Committees relief has been given to Christians, this has not been because they were Christ ians, but rather because they were residing under Moslem rule that were first to suffer.
 Of the Armenians alone, nearly a million were massacred or driven to death in 1915, and the remainder of the race within Turkish dominions were deported from their homes into the desert regions where self support was impossible. Since then approxi- mately 500,OOO Greeks, who formerly resided in prosperous villages south of the Black Sea, have been deported in similar manner and are now des- titute and helpless.
