is today making its appeal as
strongly as during the months of
war, the following extracts from a
dispatch sent by the Red Cross re-
lief commission in Athens, Greece,
should dispel all doubt:
, Five months after the signing
of the armistice the condition of
refugees throughout the near east

that has been done in their behalf
Thousands are swaddled in filthy
rags, without shoes, and all are ex-
hausted from lack of food. expos

rive in droves at the American Red
Cross relief stations after having
been without food of any kind for
days. Women walk into the sta
tons with dead babies in their
arms. Young girls driven insane
by the treatment they have receiv-
ed and children who are but living
skeletons, are seen on every hand"
