HOOVER DECLARES PRIVATE
BENEVOLENCE NEEDED TO SAVE
PEOPLE OF NEAR EAST.

Herbert Hoover has cabled the
American Committee for Relief in the
Near East, through the food admins
tration. Washington, that, while the
bulk of the relief work to be done will
he financed by the countries affected,
through the medium Of loans of other
government assistance, nevertheless
distress and suffering exists in many
acres where payment for relief sup
niles cannot be made. These charity
cases will still urgently need private
benevolence.
.'This is the situation with regard to
the Armenians, 9yrians and Persians,'
continues HooveF's cablegram. There
is probably no greater suffering today
than among the prosecuted peoples OF
Asia Minor who have no other funds
and cannot secure government loans
and have no other credit.
The world recognition given the
American Committee for Relief in the
Near East follows naturally upon the
nroclamaSions of President Wilson and
the announcements of the Secretary
4f state and other high officials, recog-
nizing its work officially and calling
mon the people of the United States
IN give generously to its fund during
its $50 .O0O,O 900 drive. The campaign to
raise Wisconsin's share of this fund
commences on January q and will
continue to February 3.
