ARMEN|ANS FACING ACTUAL STARVATION

"With the equalization of Turkey and the signing of the Armistice by the other warning nations, three mil lion war suffers in western Asia may now be saved from actual starvation, says an announcement by the Ameri- can Committee for R. in N. E. Before the end of the war, three million out of total of four million men, women and children in this region were en- tirely cut off from American relief workers.
 "No government aid is available for these homeless and destitute ones,' says the committee. "While we re- joice that millions of dollars each month are loaned or otherwise approp- riated by our government for the re- lief of the unfortunate women and children of Belgium, Northern France and Serbia, no such aid is available or possible for the Armenians, Syrians Greeks and other subject races of As ia, for the reason that the Armenians Syrians and Greeks of Western Asia are not independent nations to whom our government can make loan. They are oppressed Christians, subject races that can be reached only by private philanthropy.
 "A prominent official of the State Department recently stated that The Armenian and Syrian Relief work is one of the best possible combina- tions of patriotism and philanthropy. America stands as the friend of small Ter nations of which Persia is one and as the friend of the oppressed subject races which include the Greeks, Ar menians and Syrians."
 The week of January 12-19 has been put aside for the raising of $30,000,- 900 for relief and rehabilitation work in the Near East. It is estimated that with adequate funds these people can be made self supporting within 8 year.

So long as the United States needs to sell bonds those who hold the present issues should not dispose of them except un- der the spur of urgent necessity. They have invested in the best security in the world and it is both to their own interest and to that of their govern ment that these securities be retained.
 Congratulations of patriotic men and women numbering probably we'll over two millions have been created and have given their time and services to the sale of liberty bonds and War Saw ing Certificates. These great bodies of earnest and patriotic people, call ed together almost at the outset of the war and augmented continually by new recruits, have accomplished a task which seems almost superhuman, My admiration is great not only for the work accomplished. but for the spirit in which it was accomplished. It is my earnest wish to retain and continue these great organizations un- til the work has been completed. We face this work at time when we are handicapped in many ways.
 "There is no doubt that there is throughout the country feeling of relaxation-a feeling of self-satisfac- tion at the work already performed and strong and not unreasonable call to take up once individual and business interest and activities. The organizations were prepared for the task which would have confronted them had the war continued through out the year 1919, or longer, and am confident that despite these handi- caps they will not now relax their ef- forts and leave the task unfinished.
 Victory has come to us earlier than we might reasonably expect, but victory will not cause us to neglect the completion of that work which made victory possible.
