DEATH RATE DROPS
WHEN RELIEF ARRIVES

Lives of thousands of Armenian
children already have been saved by
the Near East Relief taking over the
Armenian orphanages, according to de.
tailed reports, which have just reached
the headquarters of that organization.
These institutions had been run by the
Armenians since the beginning Of the
war to care for the children whose
parents had been murdered by the
Turks. Because of lack of food,
clothing and medicine, the death rate
among the children in these institu-
tons averaged as high as twenty or
thirty day In some cases.
When Armenian funds became In.
adequate the Near East Relief took
charge of the orphanage. Since that
time the death rate has been greatly
reduced. Given good food and care
the children are quickly returning to
normal physical and mental condition.
1t Is estimated by persons who have
made a survey OF Armenia that 10000
children win die during the next year
unless they are given food and care.
Near East Relief Is the only organi.
zation now operating In Western asia
and 1t is making an appeal 20 save
these Christian children.
New Iberia enterprise and independent observer. (New Iberia, La.) 1902-1944, 1920-01-10
An american 81 Bill Did This

Motherless, fatherless, homeless
nameless, hungry aid clad only in
rags, the pathetic little three-year-old
shown at the left wandered into q
Near East Relief orphanage in Ar
menia. Another photograph of the
same child. shown at the right, was
taken week later, this time showing
him happy, well clothed and well fed.
Somewhere in America is the happy
man or woman who contributed the 50
bin which wrought this miracle. More
than q quarter million other helpless
little victims Of Turkish crueltye and
oppression are knocking at the doors
Of the Near East Relief orphanages In
Western Asia. Many more American
81 bills are needed now to let them In
and to care for them until they can
care for themselves.
