NEAR EAST" DRIVE
IN CITY THIS WEEK
Solicitors Will Visit Willmar Homes
for Funds for Suffering
Armenia.

MY Dear Mr. Editor:
The canvass for funds for the relief
Of the sufferers in the Near East was
delayed in this city owing to the pre-
valence of influenza, but We hope to
carry out the program this week.
The chairman for the First Ward is
Miss Emma T. Johnson, for the Sec-
ond, Mrs. George Thomas, for the
Third, Mrs. William Hengstler, and
for the Fourth, Mr. Victor Lawson
These chairmen choose their assis-
tants, and meeting was held at the
City Hall at the call of the county d.
rector to arrange the details of the
canvass. Pledge cards have been
printed and those who subscribe will
pay in cash, if possible, or within thir-
ty days to Miss Lille Noren, treas
er, at the First National Bank.
I also trust that the chairmen of
the various precincts in the county,
who have not completed their canvass,
will do so at their earliest opportun-
ity. Everyone should be given the
chance to make contribution to this
worthy cause. Another drive for these
people will not be taken, for it is con-
fidently believed that if they get the
help which they need now, they will
be able to take care of themselves
after this year. OF course the orphan
ages will have to be supported for
some years, but the funds for these
will be provided in other ways.
If our work Of last year shall not
prove unavailing. we must supplement
it with our gifts now. Owing to the
delay of the Great Powers in settling
the Turkish question, the people of the
Near East have continued to suffer
persecution at the hands of the bloody
Turks. 1000 Armenians in Cilicia,
Asia Minor, were recently massacred
in new attack by Muntafa Kamel's
Turkish and Kurdish troops.
Col. Haskell who is in command of
the inter-Allied forces in Armenia in
his latest statement says: There are
more than 100000 that are absolutely
destitute in the Trans Caucasian dist
riot alone, having virtually no food
supplies available except those brot in
by the Near East Relief. Of the situa-
ton, Mr.. Hoover says: "It is the most
desperate in the whole world"
have in my possession copies of
letters by Samuel Gompers, labor lead
er, Gen. J. J. Pershing and others, CON-
mending this asked for relief, more
earnestly than any, other before the
American people today.
If every self-supporting person in
this county would give a dollar, the
price of decent meal at hotel, the
city and county would raise it's ap-
portionment. The quota for Willmar
is $1,000, and for the county, $500.
Sincerely yours,
F. H. OEHLER,
County Director.

The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1920-05-04
A new HOTEL IS
ASSURED DAWSON
THE NECESSARY AMOUNT OF
HUNDRED THOUSAND DOL
LARS SUBSCRIBED.

A handsome hotel, to cost hun
bred thousand dollars, has been as
sured for Dawson.
At an enthusiastic meeting of cltl-
zens Friday night additional sub
scriptions to the project were made,
bringing the total of stock pledges
to an amount slightly in excess of
fifty thousand dollars, the goal
which it was necessary to reach.
Several weeks ago Mr.. j. S. Far
mum, a former resident of Dawson
and now q wealthy and prominent
citizen of Charleston, S. c., in re-
spouse to the solicitation of the
chamber of commerce agreed to take
fifty per cent of the capital stock of
one hundred thousand dollars in a
local hotel company, provided the
citizens of Dawson would subscribe
to an equal amount. An etFort was
at once made to take advantage Of
this generous offer, and great
many of the people here readily sub
scribed for stock An untiring COM
mttee from the chamber of com
merce has been at work on the prop
osition for several weeks, and their
labors were finally crowned with sue
cess.
Secretary Marlin of the chamber
of commerce wired Mr.. Farnum i'm
mediately that the required amount
had been pledged in Dawson, and it
is expected that the latter will come
here at an early date and enter into
the details of organization with the
local citizens. 1t is hoped and be-
lieved that actual work on the new no.
tel will be begun within very short
time. It will be one of the hand
soonest buildings of the kind in this
section of the state.
