Dear Mr. VanNatta: Have your kind
letter Of Nov 9th aud note contents. II is
my impression that the County Board would
not have the authority to contribute money
from their regular funds for this relief
work However 10 this Is correct aud they
appropriate the amount 1t will be a nice
way TO handle the matter. VA case you 90
not do SO, II u is possible for you 70 raise
@ good subscription for this purpose II viii
be greatly appreciated Nearly all Of the
counties have responded and taken care OF
their portion in good shupc. II the others
viii lend their cooperation we can close the
subscription list MP and We can then send
them tho fun amount Of money as soon rs
possible.
There has been no other money sub
scribrd even for the European work that rs
needed more than this money going into the
IRE stricken district 1t W very hard Tor
amy one who has never seen one OF these
Dire stricken districts 10 realize what the
suffering and dr-titutinu means They have
plenty Ut clothing for some time This was
