SEEK PARENTS OF
 ORPHANED CHILDREN
Red Gross Aims to Aid 10000
 Children Of Refugees

Warsaw. Nov. 7.--Namcs and faces of streams of returning refugees are being eagerly scanned by Red Cross workers in every city of Poland each day in search for the parents of 10000 unclaimed children, lost in the chaos of the German drive of 1918.
 Every day from among the starved ranks of the wanderers, some. worn woman or broken father clasps the thin Waif from whom they were mer- cilcssly torn alm ost three years ago a reunion that takes place IS often IS not in some Red Cross refugee sta tiOn. There are thousands who will never be claimed, for their parents, driven away when the Germans came, found only temporary safety in Rus sia where they were caught in the web of anarchy and suffered death i'll the days Of Russian terror.
 All of the children arc now under the care of tho Americun Red Cross and such supplies as arc available have been devoted to tbeir needs. But for the thousands who will never again be united with their parents, more than temporary aid is needed. Some permanent institutional scheme will have to be deNiScd but this must wait more normal times than the present.
 Unless rescued from actual staryn- ton and nakcdnesS and mOthered by the outside world. until they are strong agaln, these children will bear the marks of war for the rest of their lives. Anacmia, ricllcts, tuberculosis and kindred diseases, fast becoming chronic, will forever handicap them.
