LAUNCH VAST EFFORT
FOR EUROPE'S YOUNG
Eight American Relief Agencies
Combine to Save 100000
Children Death Menaces.

Eight great relief organizations,
working among and for every race and
creed, have united under the name Of
the European Relief Council to CO.
ordinate child relief In Europe this
winter. The Council will seek to pro-
vide funds for 100000 starving and
diseased children in Eastern and Cen
trail Europe and to administer this
relief economically.
II consists of Herbert Hoover, chair
man, and Franklin X. Lane, treas
urer Edgar Richard, representing the
American Relief Administration DR..
Livingston Farrand, representing the
American Red Cross; Felix WarburG,
representing the Jewish Joint Distri-
button Committee Wilbur X. Thomas,
representing the American Friends
Service Committee (Quakers) James
A. Flaherty, representing the Knights
Of Columbus; DR.. G. V. Hubbard, repre-
senting the Young Mems Christian AS
ISOLATION Miss Sarah s. Lyon, repre-
senting the Young Women's Christian
Associations DR.. Arthur Brown, repre-
sentng the Federal Council of Church
es of Christ in America.
1t is the purpose of the Council to
raise $33,O00,00O, in an appeal center
ing at the Christmas holidays, to the
end that the desperate situation re-
garding child life may be met. In
every town and community of the ma
ton, it is planned local committees,
representing all the cooperating agen-
cies will be formed to secure the vi
tally necessary funds. OF the amount
sought, $23,O00,O0O will be used for
basic food and $10,OO0,000 for medical
service.
For every one Of these American
dollars the local governments and
communities aided will furnish two
dollars, in the form of transportation,
labor, guards, clerical help, cash con-
tributions and such food supplies as
are locally obtainable. No children
receive the free food except after
medical tests showing them to be serl-
Ously undernourished. The remaining
S10000000 of the fund is just as
urgently needed for medical service to
the children.
The European Relief Council will do
much more than effect economies in
the raising Of the child saving fund.
1t will, with the inspecting forces Of
eight great agencies, keep a constant
eye on the administration Of Amer
ica's mercful gift, in order that there
shall be no wastage and no tendency
toward pauperiZation.
This is the largest cooperative be-
nevolent organization ever attempted
in the United States" Mr.. Hoover
says. "The organizations represented
have come to the unanimous, though
independently formed conclusion, that
nothing but prompt and united action
by the whole American people can
avert Incredible tragedy for the help
less children involved. The Organlza-
tons forming the Council will organ
ize their representatives in every
town and community of the nation
for the raising of the necessary funds"

HAS NO FEAR OF SHARKS
Writer Tells Of Curious Fish Which
the Monsters Of the Deep Leave
!, Severely Alone.

There is one fish that has no fear
of sharks. This fish inhabits the wa
ters of the South Sea isles. Frederick
O'Brien tells in his book, 'White Shad-
ows in the South Seas" Of hav-
Ing seen thousands of these fish
living peacefully in cove fairly alive
with nhn-eating sharks.
"This fish, the DlOdon antennatus,"
Mr.. O'Brien writes, "gets the better OF
the shark in curious manner. He
can blow himself up by taking in air
and water, until he becomes bloated
wretch instead of the fairly decent
thing he is in his normal moments He
can bite, he can make a noise with his
Jaws, and he can eject water from his
mouth to some distance.
Besides all this, he erects papil-
lac on his skin like thorns, and Sc
cretes In the skin Of his belly a car
mine fluid that makes a permanent
stain.
Despite all these defenses, If the
shark is fool enough to heed no warn
ing, and to eat Diodon. the latter
puffs himself up. and eats his way
through the shark to liberty, leaving
the shark riddled and leahy, and, I'm
deed. dead"
The writer says that should this
still be doubted, he refers his readers
to Charles Darwin.
