A Personal Letter to You, Reader!
viii You Respond?

Recently letters were mailed to nearly one hundred of
the prominent business people on Five Mile Beach, appeal
ing for funds for the Near East sufferers, but responses
were few.
The Near East Relief is an organization, incorporated
by act OF Congress to meet the needs of the famine stricken
area in Armenia and Syria, and noble men and women the
country over are carrying on the work of relief. The money
we give is used to buy food for starving women and
children. Thousands of little children have but a single
garment to cover their nakedness and to protect them from
the bitter cold of winter.
The quota of this island is a little less than a thousand
dollars, County Chairman Judge Eldredge informs me,
and he adds that Stone Harbor has already gone over the
top, as have also Cape May City, West Cape May and Lower
Township. Wildwood is tagging. Surely this amount
should be quickly raised.
Wildwood must not be a laesard in this campaign. It
is up to our substantial citizens to lead in the matter before
we pass the hat to take up the collection.
Give today and save a little child from starvation.
To a mother of three children the workers at a food
station in Armenia were forced to say: Send us one of
your children, the same one every day, and we will keep
him alive; the rest will have to starve." The trouble with
us in America is that we do not have starving people at our
doorstep and since the conclusion of the war we forget that
there is still suffering.
Many Wildwood prosperous business people are not re-
spending to this appeal as they should. If you are in touch
with the affairs of the world, you know the need. Of the
% resident bank directors on the island only 8 have respon-
ded in this drive. The local bankers are not making a very
good showing. One citizen remarked: Il don't see any
store keepers on the list. Isn't there any stores in Wild
wood? Now is the time to reach for your check book.
Contributions may be left with Jed Dubois, chairman,
at the Journal office; or with COPYRIGHT Smith, city hall; or
H. Foster Goslin at Coombs Lumber Co. office.

to find n solution Of a very difficult engineering problem.
 The only satisfactory way the se- lectmen know or bringing the matter before the public is through the newspa per. and for this purpose the following letter has been submitted by Dr. Griswold. Thia communica- ton is. an answer to 2 letter recently written to the selectman by g Ser lin resident. who has complained of conditions at this place:
 I fully appreciate the tenor Of your letter of the 22nd relative to the bridge under the railroad at Ken sington. This passway has been a matter of controversy between the town. tho state highway commission. the trolley company and the New York, New Haven X Hartford rail road ever since l took over the office of selcctmsn last october. I have laimed that when the state took over the highway tho passway was includ- cd as an integral part Of the system. [ have also maintained that the trol Icy and the railroad had a respons- bility there. Under thcSc conditions did not feel that the town should assume the repairs and thereby ac- knowledge tho sole responsibility.
 
 quent advisement with the various pa rites, and the state department has at last offered to assume one-third the expense of reconstruction. and asks me to arrange with the rail roads for cooperation with their en- gineers, and both the trolley and steam roads assure me Of their will inEness 10 take the matter up at once. Mir. Tnklcbach, as engineer for the town. now has the matter in char.e and it will be pushed to as rapid a conclusion as possible. It is not n small matter simply requiring tem- porary repairs, az you assume. for any temporary repairs with the pres ent truck traffic would be torn to pieces in two or three days.
 "Tt is really a serious engineering problem. requiring 9: times the dis an expense nf some thousands of dol lar-
 'Tt should have been remedied years ago. but since the joh seems to come to mo. recognize the serious ness Of the situation, and want to fo i; right.

 Meantime. the passage is no; un- safe if automobiles slow down and use due caution. suppose use this passway on an average more ire ruently than most people. and find it is simply matter of slowing do'vn instead Of full speed ahead.
 We are getting at the matter as rapidly as possible. and when it is cleaned up l hope i- will be done in satisfactory and permanent way.
 Very truly yours.
