PEOPLE DYING
OF STARVATION

L. A. Cooper, Southern Divisional
Director of the Armenian Committee
for relief in the Near East, who has
just returned from a trip in the South
ern States, said:
Owing to the fact that there has
been an increase of influenza in the
Southern States. the Ealnpaign for
thirty million dollars for tie relief of
the starving thousands of the Near
east, has been temporarily postponed
in many counties.
eff the people of America could pic
ture to themselves a community suf-
fering from the worst known epidemic
of Influenza with thousands of people
dying of that disease and from starva-
ton with very little food and less
r'edical aid. in the whole country,
they would have some idea of condi-
tons in the Near East. In some of the
cities, the people are so desolate and
weakened from continued want that
they are unable to bury their dead and
as many die each night from starva-
ton, they are carried out and their
bodies laid on the street to be picked
up and loaded on push carts and
dumped into. the nearest river.
CDR. Henry Riggs, just as he was
preparing to sail from New York on
a relief ship for Armenia and Syria,
received a cable from that country
urging immediate help and telling of
conditions that are unprintable. These
people have suffered, during the period
of the war, agonies that were I'M
known before to human beings and
are still suffering and being perse-
cuted on account of their unsuitable
faith in Christianity. The Christian
people of America have wonderful
opportunity to make themselves
Christ's agents to answer the prayers
of these people for help"
