COLUMBUS KNIGHTS
AID CHILD APPEAL

James A. Flaherty, Of Philadelphia
supreme knight Of the Knights OF Co
lumbus, declared that the K of c., in
response to an appeal from Herbert
Hoover, chairman of the European Re-
lief Council, had decided to take an
exception in their policy of refraining
from any national campaign for funds
for relief or charitable work.
1.-THE need Of the starving and sick
children of Europe is so urgent" Mr..
Flaherty said, ''that the Knights of Co
lumbus feel in duty bound to devote
themselves to the common task of rails
ing funds for the relief of these chill
dren. An an organization it is cur
intention to conduct no distinct K. Of
G. drive for funds, although members
of the organization are frequent con-
tributors to all charitable drives. But

leans and we consider it a privilege to

POLAND NOW RIVALS
PLIGHT OF BELGIUM
Children Chief Sufferers in Land
Stripped of Necessities,
II Says Relief Worker.

Poland is in the destitute state for
want of food and clothing among the
poor that Belgium would have been
during the war, had there been no COM
mission for relief in that country, ac-
cording to DR.. Vernon Kellogg, Ameri-
can Relief Administration official, who
recently returned from Warsaw.
DR.. Kellogg was member of Mr..
Hoover's staff In Belgium, and at the
conclusion of hostilties, entered Po-
land as the Hoover emissary in charge
Of food relief. He first entered Poland
in 1915, q few months after the Ger
man occupation. His report of starva-
ton, disease and suffering that exist
ed at that time is one Of the most
narrowing documents in the records
of American relief work overseas.
DR.. Kellogg made the following
statement regarding the work after the
armistice:
'With Warsaw as our headquarters,
we began operations in Poland in Jan
uary, 1919, and within a few weeks
there was established steady impor-
tation of food into that country. Tons
and tons of it came from overseas
through the Port of Danzig.
"It was impossible to do all that
the administration wanted to do, be-
cause the need Of Poland was too great,
but it was agreed that enough food
should be sent to Poland to care for
the four million people until the great
agricultural districts could again pro-
vide for them.
"But in addition to these four mil
lion people who so pressingly needed
relief, there was another call for relief
from source that could not be re-
sisted: the children of the land. Many
Of these were orphans, hungry, ema-
ciated, destitute and diseased. So the
American Relief Administration added
to its work by instituting a system of
| feeding sthese children. In few
months million and quarter Polish
children were getting free meal ev-
cry day of special food prepared to
counteract the effects Of their previous
undernourishment."
To finish the job eight great organ
lzations have united under the name
of the European Relief Council to raise
the funds necessary to care for the
food needs and the medical needs of
the 100000 children of Eastern and
Central Europe. These organizations
are the American Relief Administra
ton, the American Red Cross, the
American Friends Service Committee
(Quakers), the Jewish Joint Distribu-
ton Committee, the Federal Council of
the Churches of Christ in America, the
Knights of Columbus, the Y. NJ. c. A.

GRAY SAMARITANS
RESCUING CHILDREN

The Young Women's Christian Asso-
Citations of the United States are keenIy
interested in the movement for the re-
lief Of the 100000 starving children
of Europe because a group of their
members, the Polish Gray SamaritanS,
have been in charge of distributing food
to children in Poland. They have been
serving under the American Relief adj
ministration and have conducted food
kitchens and distributing stations in
all parts of Poland outside Warsaw.
In all the relief work being done in
Europe, that Of the Polish Grays has
been unique because all the girls,
though sent from America, were either
born in Poland or are Of Polish paren-
tage. When the need for social serv-
ice in their country became acute
many girls of Polish descent answered
the call of the Young Women's Chris
tan Association for overseas service
and. enlisted in the preliminary train
ing course that was given in several
cities of the United States. From this
group thirty girls were chosen and sent
to Poland where, since 1913, they have
been caring for the children of the
country. The distribution of clothing
has taken them into all parts of
Poland.
They are now spending their entire
time in arranging for the feeding of
children this winter. Groups of them
travel to strategic centers in outlying
districts where they set up distributing
stations, receive supplies, prepare
meals, arrange for impartial distribu-
ton and train helpers to continue the
work when they are sent on to the next
town.
