Forest Supervisor c. H. Park has
been instructed to allow no camp
fires except with permits in the more
dangerous parts of the Washington

CHANCES TO HELP
JEWISH ORPHANS
1900 Youngsters in Eastern Europe
Left Fatheriess by the War.

New York, August a.-Judging
from the number of Jewish orphans
in Eurore, Hebrew children have paid
heavier war toll than any other
race. There are. according to conser
vative estimates. $1,000 Jewish or
phans in Europe, tie Balkans and
Asia Minor, who are utterly destitute
and for whom there is no room in
the already oycrcrowded Jewish in
stitutions abroad These are in ad-
dition to other thousands being cared
for by relatives, friends or Jewish In
stitutions. What to do with these
homeless and helpless youngsters is
one If the biggest after the war prob
lens that confronts the world today.
Scores of motherless and fatherless
tads are sleeping on the street in
almost every City in Poland because
they have no other place TO sleep.
The overcrowded and hard pressed
orphanages are constantly turning
children away. Four year-olds who
speak in haby-talk keep alive by
heCging on the streets. with the whole
burden of existence in their own small
! shoulders. Terrible conditions OF
near starvation and lack of sufficien,
| clothing prevail in most of the in
stitutions for Jewish orphans abroad
Oliver Twist, whose sufferings arr
so celebrated in story led a sumptuoul

How to save these $4,000 hungry

American Jewry is hoping to solve.

In the remote rural districts OF the
country. 1t Is said that many OF the
people live and die without owning a
pair Of shoes. In the bitterest weather
they travel through mud and snow
without adequate foot covering. They
consider themselves fortunate IL they
can secure old gunny sacks or heavy
cloth, which they tie about. their feet
with twine in winter
The first American made shoes that
were distributed by the American Red
Cross created tremendous stir among
the people Of the distant villages. One
old woman who had never owned a
pair before took the shoes that had
been given to her to her home and put
them on a shelf above the fireplace.
She was as pleased as a child to- own
them but nothing could induce her to
wear them. She said that she intended
to save them for fetes or perhaps for
her burial They were much too
beautiful to be worn" she said.
