PRESIDENT CABLES
HIS ENDORSEMENT
Does Not Want Campaign Interrupted
Because of Probable Congress
sional Action.

President Wilson in Paris has ca
bled Cleveland H. Dodge, treasurer Of
the Armenian Syrian Relief Campaign
relative to the need of the work. The
President has asked Congress to ap-
propriate $10O,O00,O00 for extending
relief.
"The appropriation asked Of Con-
gress," cabled the President, as for
handling food relief and rehabilitation
in the Near East. hope this subscrip-
ton will not in any way be interrupt
ed or reduced. The need is immediate
and very great"
The President realizes that congress
sional relief can only come in time,
while the Armenian and Syrian Re-
lief Campaign. Feb. $40, will give re-
lief almost at once. The organization
Is already at work and is extending
relief daily.

ARMENIA, SYRIA,
ALL HOLY LAND
NEED OUR HELP
FATE OF FOUR MILLION HELP.
LESS PEOPLE DEPENDS ON
AMERICAN GENEROSITY.
CALL IS MOST APPEALING
In the Land Where Our Savior Lived
and Wrought His Miracles Grim
Want and PestiIence stalk.

Like doomed man waiting at dawn
for reprieve, 100000 people wait
in Asia Minor for the word from Amer
ca. Whole nations wait upon your an
swer and mine, to know whether
they are to live or die. Was there
ever so much responsibility thrown
upon the shoulders Of us plain Amer
leans?
Over in Asia Minor they are crying
for food. They are stretching out
their thin, tired arms toward the sun
set, toward the great America of which
they have heard and of which they
dream.
Women, weak from the four-year
horror Of struggle from which they
have escaped weak with terror. They
are wondering what you and l, here
in America, will do for them.
Little children, bony-armed and
large-eyed from hunger. who can hope
only to live and grow up to manhood
or womanhood if the great country far
across the seas, hears them and helps
them.
An Armenian soldier, broken under
the cruelty of the Turk, shadow of
man, dreaming of a chance to live
and save his family. He knows that
the answer must come from beyond
the sunset.
He may know little of America. To
him Missouri may not be even so
much as a name on a map. But he
realizes, only as those who are under
the shadow realize, that unless Mis-
souri, and all those other nameless
and to him vague places on the map,
come to his aid that he must die.
Over there they are waiting for our
answer. They know that we came
into the war and smashed the terror
of the Hun, and that their Turkish
masters are finally overthrow. But
to them all this will mean nothing
unless they are given a chance for
life.
In the meanwhile they are dying for
the food that is in America They
are perishing for lack of means to
buy such little food as there is in the
stricken lands. American men and
women are laboring there, giving all
they have, going hungry themselves,
unable to check the blight of starva-
ton.
They are watching little children
eating filthy garbage. They see them
picking the bones of animal carcasses
lying in the streets. Unless We help
the struggle is useless. There is no
surplus of food in Europe. 1t must
come from America.
Your opportunity to aid these strick-
en- people will come February $40,
during the Armenian and Syrian Re-
lief Campaign.

"At the time | started on Tanlac

called by all her neighbors, has lived
in Dallas for many years and her
statement regarding the improved
condition of her health will be read
with interest by hundreds who know
and respect her.

ACTUAL CHARITY
!. IS THE BASIS FOR
THIS CAMPAIGN
MOST OTHER WAR DRIVES WERE
FOR OUR NATION OR OUR
PEOPLE.
MOTIVE IS NOT SELFISH
In Other Campaigns We Invested In
Bonds or Gave For Our Own or
Our Neighbours Boys.

To help the starving Armenians
means giving. It does not mean buy
ing bonds. 1t does not mean raising
funds for your own or your neigh
boris sons. 1t means giving for the
sake Of souls that you will never see
and never have seen.
But there is not the slightest doubt
about the desperate need. II has ex.
listed for months. AS long as the
Turks were holding out they could go
on starving the Armenians and the
Greeks and the Assyrians and the
Jews and other non-Mohammedans
who were in their power. We have
known for months that their situation
was desperate.
When the Turks surrendered the
full horror of the situation was re.
vealed. We know now that four mil.
zion people must speedily die unless
help is rushed to them. They can
pay, us nothing. They have lost ev.
erything that was theirs. They have
been driven hundreds of miles from
their fields, they are packed in sea
coast cities and inland GASES and there
10 nothing to feed them, nothing they
can give in exchange for food.
The man who helps can hope for no
recompense other than the feeling of a
duty done. His only pay will be a
clear conscience, the knowledge that
he did not hold back when q dollar of
his would have helped in saving a
human life.
Giving to the Armenian and Syrian
Relief Campaign, February $40, will
mean that the giver can always recall
that In the hour of the worlds tribu-
lation he did his share. He can al.
ways be certain that no gift was ever
more needed or was ever and more
worthy.
This time the giver will not be Civ.
ing to make men more comfortable,
tn make them more contented in the
trenches-but to actually save human
lives that must otherwise pass. It is
not question of making a fighting
mans life little easier for him, it Is
question of saying whether men and
women and little children shall or
shall not die.
We have given over and over again
in the name of patriotism. We have
given for the good of America and
Americanism. This time We are called
upon to give in the name of our com.
mon humanity.
The whole of Asia Minor has its
starving thousands. 1t is beyond the
power Of the shattered Turk govern.
ment to help if the Turk had any such
desire. The help must come from the
America that has never failed to meet
any demand upon either its resource
fitness. it's courage or its generosity

this help must be immediate, else the

JEWISH CANTOR
GIVES RECITAL

A striking and most interesting
example OF the national and religious
music Of a people was given IN the
recital of Josef ROsenbIatt, the Jew
ish Cantor, who Is a Russian, and
who brings to the concert stage
riAualistic music unfamiliar to tke
world outside the orthodox syna-
he looks a part Of the religious cere.
mony rather than an artist before the
public.
This famous church tenor, in his
recital at the Belasco Theater yester-
dady afternoon, displayed a vibrant
and powerful voice that does not fail
into the category of the average sing
er. 1t is, in fact, the place of the
Cantor" in the orthodox Hebrew
ritual to sing all the solo music Of a
service, supported by a chorus choir
The evolution of the Cantor has
brought about music that falls into
the full quartet range-from bass TO
sOprano--all sung by the same voice
Thus Il is that in fullthroated
chant Cantor Rosenblatt sang the "Eili,
Eih," or again carried this wall to
a high and soft faIsetto. He uses
in this high voice the facility of a
coloratura soprano, with astonishing
trills and runs, that found the freest
expression in his own composition, a
prayer, ''Wcholmaminim," his first
encore.
Expressive more fully of the people
were the "Ov Horachmim." by the
singer, and his second encore, the old
Jewish music 'Schoifer shel moshiach." :"
by GoIdfaden, which translated, means
"On the Tombstone Of Mother Rachel"
lnquiring why a real folk dance
terminated this "miserere" OF grief,
the answer was that il expressed Joy
at the deliverance of the soul.
There is fulf-voiced splendor in
this tenor voice, but the chant begets
a. harshness, with cultural articuI4-
tion, that needs a great church or
che full dignity of it's message. As
singer of concert music, Cant 0r
Rosenblatt gave effectively an aria
from Bizets Pearl Fishers" and
with most unusual vocalization for
the male voice. a RossinI aria ia

also sang a Yiddish folk song and a
Russian Lullaby" of Gretchaninoff.
Stuart Ross was a most sympa-
thetic accompanist, whose music to
the ritual was largely Improvisation,
very RrtisticalIy done. He also play
ed several piano solos, with a brit
liant but rather hard tone. His tech

Two Americans, the report says.
were found lying almost naked in
the yard of a police station. They
were begging for water. After some
difficulty the Japanese were induced
to send one of them to a hospital.
The other man was finally released.
