 Great Interest in the
 Jewish Relief Fund 1.-THE meeting last night, attended U by many pominent Jews and non-Jews of Birmingham, to perfect plans for collecting funds for the re- lief of the starving Jews in the near east, was full of sympathy and con- fidence that the local campaign would prove marked success. Many humane campaigns have been undertaken here, but none so appeal ing as the one now under way. Not a man of heart but will make a liberal donation. Thirty-five million dollars will be raised in the United States, and of that amount a goodly sum will come from Alabama.
 In other Jewish relief campaigns our Jewish fellow citizens have been the principal contributors. Gentiles were not called upon to aid. But in all benevolent causes the Jews have been ready to help, and now non-Jews feel it their duty to do large part of the giving.
