drive. The opportionment of this
township is 81, 100 and thus far it has
secured $3.50. or about one half its
quota.
A total of $3O,OOO,OO0 is being rails
ed in the United States in this drive.
Congress has appropriated SlO0,OOO,-
600. but only a portion of this goes
for Near Eastern relief. Even should
every penny of this government ap-
preparation and the full S3O,O0OOOO

would furnish relief Of but $32 per
capita. The Assyrians. Armenians
and Jews in the Near East have been
oppressed. starved and massacred for
many years and the relief now being
asked is needed many times over.
There ought to be no trouble at all in
raising the full quota asked in this
county and in every town and town.
