cess in taking care of placement in
employment of the discharged soldiers
is due to the efforts of your organiza-
ton.
You have been enormous help to
| us in the organization and operation
OF the Bureau for returning soldiers
and sailors. While the work done by
these gentlemen everywhere has been
of great assistance, it has been par
ticularly we'll handled in the difficult
State of Pennsylvania, where you have
two representatives giving all their
time to the work.

of our country, know OF no work
that is more important than that con.

$2,5O0,000 in this work, their whole

about 100000 are Jewish. OF this
number at least 100000 are orphans,
according to information In the hands
of the American Jewish Relief Com
mitee, and most of these youngsters
have no home save the streets of Pol

Bogen, executive director for the Joint
Distribution Committee of Jewish re-
lief funds in Poland, states that 375,-
600 Jewish children in that country
are now being fed daily by his agency.
Careful estimates based on a partial
census show thai more than twice this
number of Jewish children must be
cared for. 1t is for purposes of ex-
panding this work to care for all these
needy youngsters that the American
Jewish Relief Committee is seeking a
fund of $35,000,00 this year.

Terrible Experiences of Jews in
Europe Raises Question OF
Limit of Human Endurance.
SUFFERING is UNSURPASSED.
There Is a Tenacious clinging to Life
and Faithful Observance OF All
Religious Dictates.
By NEAL

Has human endurance any limit?
At inst what level of poverty, sur
fering. hunger and disease does the
last flicker of hope fade out in the hui
man breast and merciful Death bring
welcome oblivion?
Certain it is that human beings have
In the past survived days, weeks, even
months. of Unbelievable physical tor
fure and mental anguish and, surviv-
ing. have returned again to normal.
It is equally certain that all previous
records of what human beings can en-
dure and yet live have been broker by
the experiences of the 100000 jew
ish men, women and children in East
ern Europe during the four years just
past.
Now that relief workers have pene-
trated into the affected portions of the
Old World, the full story of European
Jewry's four years of horror is coming
tc light. The majority of the Jews
abroad, according to reports now in the
possession of the American Jewish Re
lief Committee, have lost their homes,
their possessions, their health, n or
more members of their families-have
been bereft, in fact, of everything that
makes life worth the living. In hun
dreds of thousands of cases these UNI
fortunates are so deadened by their
endless misery that they have all but
lost the desire for life itself. The
Jewish population of whole districts
has not known a full meal in years,
while there are almost 100000 chill
dren alone who have either forgotten
or have never known what milk tastes
like. AS a result all the diseases at
tendant upon starvation and lowered
vitality are raging.
ut is difficult to believe" writes DR..
Boris D. Bogen, executive director of
Jewish relief work in Poland, that
humanity can endure suffering to such
an extent as is found here. The situa-
ton is so depressing that I think it
miraculous people still continue to
live. The number of homeless children
seen on the streets is appalling.
"The amount of food is very limited,
and, practically speaking, none is to
be bought in the open market. 1t is
remarkable that the people still con-
tinue their schools for educating the
children according to ancient Jewish
custom, and in this respect do not lose
heart
The above is typical of the accounts
of the plight of the Jews in Europe
that are received at the American Jew
ish Relief Committee headquarters at
10 East Fortieth street, New York.
These reports furnish the answer to
he question as to how much human
beings can suffer and still live. The
present condition of the Jewish PEG.
pie abroad, according to all the infor-
nation available, is the last word in
human suffering and the utter limit
of human endurance.

ALL DROP LETTERS SHOULD
BEAR TWO-CENT STAMP

1t is quite evident from the number
of letters mailed at the Pleasantville
postoffice bearing but a %one-cent stamp
that many persons are of the opinion
that no more postage is required, when
the letter is dropped in the local post
office and addressed to a person at the
same office. This is an error. Because
we have free delivery of mail in Plea
santville it costs just as much to mail
a letter to a person in Pleasantville
as it does to one living in California.
Bear this in mind hereafter and on all
drop letters as well as those addressed
to other p~ostofflces place a two-cent
stamp.
