To the Brotherhood of Men.

April 7, 8, and 9 the people OF
South Carolina will be called upon te
rive to the relief of the suffering
Jews in Europe, of whom in Poland
Lithuania, Galicia, Palestine, Turkey
and Serbia six million are dying OF
starvation. The misery of these peo-
ple is indescribable The people OF
the United States, who have not SUI
fered from the horrors of war, are
called upon to give S35,OO0,ooo to
the assistance of the Jewish victims.
Until the armistice was signed last
November, the extension OF relief to
these unfortunate people was nearly
impossible, because most of them liv-
ed under German. domination and
money and supplies could not be sent
to them without incurring the danger
of giving aid to the enemy.
How will South Carolinans respond
to the appeal? The allotment to
North Carolina was 100000. The
Jewish population Of that State is a
bout 1000, but North Carolina sub
scribed the first day of the campaign
every dollar of it's allotment and, by
the end of the third day the subscrip-
tions totalled S150,000.
The following letter was written to
n. H. Lehman, treasurer of the fund,
by J. S. Murrow, A Baptist preacher,
eighty-two years old, and sixty years
a missionary among the Indians at
Atoka, Okla:
"I am not a Jew--I am an old
worn-out Christian--Indian Mission
ary- Baptist. Your God is my God
your Father my Father. Your peo-
pie are my Masters people. Your
brethren are my brethren. My means
are small, but my heart greatly re-
ioices because of shis privilege of
sending the inclosei one hundred dol
lars for the relief of the suffering
and starving Jews in Europe.
The appeal to South Carolinians 10,
Of course, addressed to members OF
all denominations, and of none-to
all men and women who have human
hearts to pity the starving and dying.

Governor Cooper Designates
Day for Welfare Canvas.

Governor Cooper issued a procla-
nation designating April 7, and 9
as Jewish war relief days in South
Carolina and calls upon the people of
the state to respond to the appeals
for starving peoples in Europe. The
proclamation reads:
For centuries the great maj ajority of
Jewish peoples have been oppressed
politically, and in other ways have
been harrassed. They have had no ma
tion and no home, except under the
dominion of other people. But the
Jews have not allowed their race to
be lost, despite autocracy and the I'M
friendly attitude OF many of their Eu-
!ropean rulers. Palestine, their ancient
home, has long been under the heel
of the cruel Turk; old Russia, where
approximately half of the 100000
Jews of the world reside, was none
too kind to them. Autocratic Austria
Hungary, where another million lived
gave them small opportunity for self
assertion. Relatively few Jews have
enjoyed the freedom of England or
France, and only some 100000 to
100000 enjoy the freedom of the
United States.
The Jews have subsisted il the
hope of better day. The dawn of
that day is at hand, for rights of the
smaller peoples have been written in
to international ethics. But the Jews
Of Europe can not see nor attain this
and are in rags. Their plight in Po-
land is pitiable, as it is in other parts
Of old Russia; neither do those resid
ing in old Austria-Hungary enjoy
full opportunity.
Having given generously to various
war funds and having fought well in
the battle lines, the Jews of America
now ask their Gentle fellow citizens
to come to their assistance. They can
not alone rescue their brothers in Eu-
rope. Their appeal to the populace ss
whole is worthy appeal. The world
owes much to the Jews Of old and to
the Jew Of to-day.
: Therefore, I, R. A. Cooper, gov
ernor of South Carolina, do designate
April z, s and az Jewish war relief
days in this state, and we call upon
the people to lend an attentive ear
to the cries of distress from the Jews
of Europe.

Although it was the expressed
wish Of Roosevelt that when he
lied his burial place should be
marked in a simple and unpreten-
tious way. in the little cemetery al
Oyster Bay, it is now the talk in
congress to erect a tomb or monu-
ment in keeping with the deeds and
greatness OF the beloved leader q
men. II the permission of the
Roosevelt family can be obtained,
it is the idea to have a memorial
erected, either by popular sub
scription or at the expense Of the
Government, or both, along the
lines of Lincoln's resting place at
Springfield, McKinley's at Canton
,r Grants at New York City. The
idea has been in the minds of Con-
gressionar leaders and admirers Of
Roosevelt for some time, but is
more talked about recently because
Of the pilgrimage made by promi-
nent citizens to Roosevelt's grave,
and who have expressed the opin-
ion that fitting and costly shrine
should be erected.

No valid reason is given by Gov
eminent officials as to the acute
shortage of sugar over the entire
country. 1t is admitted by them
after careful survey, that the pull :
lie is face to face with a sugar fam
inc. A variety of excuses is offer
ed. The sugar shortage in Europe
is said to have made serious in
roads on the American supply. In
formation is at hand that sugar is
plentiful in Germany, especially in
the form of candies and sweets.
Rumor has it that large quantities
of sugar are held in Porto RIGA foi
higher prices. The talk of ration.
ing the sugar supply is not meet
ing with public favor. During the
war it was different, as an emer-
gency had to be met. The views
OF the people are being made plain
in Washington, and the concensus
/ of opinion is to the effect that the
needs of the American people
should receive first consideration;
exports should be measured by the
excess above home needs and that
it is not right for Germany to be
munching American candy and
sweets while the housewives oil
