WILSON APPEALS
Asks American People to Contribute
 to Near East Relief
By Associated Press


 Washington. December 4.-President Wilson addressed appeal today to the American people for contributions to the Near East Relief.
 None of the allies in the great war. the President recalled, had suffered more severely in proportion to their numbers than the Armenans and other peoples of the Near East Recent renewal of onslaughts against Armenia by the Turk ish nationalists, the Kurds and the bol- shevists. the President added. had placed million people in imminent danger of starvation unless aid was again offered them. He urged that the American peo- pie contribute generously "out of their abundance"
 During the last few years" the Pres ident said in part, these peoples have suffered untold hardships and losses, and now at the beginning of the winter. when it was hoped these burdens would be frightened, another great disaster has overtaken them The Armenian republic has been overrun and thousands of peo- ple who had begun to rehabilitate them selves have been driven from their homes. Recent cables state that the roads to Batum are damned with re- fugees, women and children shoeless and without food"

 Service cars of the Birmingham Au- tomobile club will be open to the general public today for the last time, according to an. announcement made at the club headquarters yesterday. After this these cars will be for the benefit of club mem- bers only.

In ad- dition calls will be received at the of flee of the club in the lobby of the Tut wiler hotel and the service cars sent to aid of anyone in trouble. These cars have proven of great assistance to mo- torists on Sundays and have resulted in largely increasing the membership of the organization.
 The local club now has under consid- eration the matter of establishing three of four more safety zones in the busy downtown section,' said Henry Dozier, president of the organization. This work on the part of the automobile club is not only for the benefit of motorists, but more especially for the pedestrian. The only
