New York. Dec. 11.--A proclama tion by President Wilson calling upon the people of the United States to con- tribute money to sustain the Armen- ion, Syrian Greek and other war suf- fers in the near east, during the win ter was made public here today by the American committee for Armenian and Syrian relief. The ~ presidents proclamation dated at the White House on November 24th, reads in part:
 "It is estimated that about 4,00O,- O00 Armenian, Syrian Greek and oth- CT war sufferers in the near east will require outside help to sustain them through the winter. Many of them are now hundreds of miles from their home lands. The vast majority of them are helpless women and children in- cluding 100000 orphans
 'The American committee for re- lief in the Near East is appealing for a minimum of $3O,0O0,00O to be sub scribed January 12. 1919 with which to meet the most urgent needs of these people.
 T therefore, again call upon the people of the United States to make even more generous contributions than those they have made heretofore to sustain through the winter months those who, through no fault of their own, have been left starving, shelter less condition, and to help re-establish these ancient and sorely oppressed people in their former. homes on q self-supporting basis.

 Practical difficulties of continuing government operation under existing authority, he pointed out. are the growing conflicts of authority between state and federal jurisdictions, in- adequacy on the half billion dollars revolving fund for financing improve ments, inability to force railroads to pay for cars and locomotives without litigation, and to require terminal im- provements.

Involved in this prosperity Is the extension of our foreign trade. We produce so much more than we consume that markets must be found for the surplus. Those markets are the competitive markets of the world We must be able to enter them upon equal terms with any other nation.
