Campaign
For Relief of Armenians is
Being Waeed This Week.

The nationwide campaign to-
raise $50, 900, 100000 to aid the
destitute Armenians is being
waged this week. The quota Of
Richmond Magistcrinl District is
S2,300.00 Of which 100000 is
assigned to Big Stone Gap and
vicinity.
1t is fortunate that our GOV
ernmcnt is able to lend millions
of dollars to Belgium, France,
Serbia, and other allied nations
to supplement their own grants
for tleir people whose homes
and means Of livelihood have
been DESTROYED by the war. But
unfortunately there is no friend
ly and responsible government
in the near East to which our
government can make loans for
the aid Of the millions of home
less and destitute people in that
region. Tie generosity Of the
American people is the only an
swcr to the problem.
