SENATOR RUNYAN
ASKS HELP
TO ISSUE CHRISTMAS APPEAL
FOR ARMENIAN ORPHANS

Newark, N. j., Nov. 80. Condi-
tons in Armenia are SO bad that
Senator William N. Runyon, State
chairman of the Near East Relief, has
decided to issue a Christmas appeal
to the people of New Jersey for the
adoption of orphans, almost the rem
nant of the Armenian nation. Sen
ator munyon's appeal, in the form of
letter, will be mailed on December
18th to 100000 people in the State.
The New Jersey Sunday School
Association at the recent State con-
vention passed resolution favoring
the orphan adoption movement. Over
three hundred Sunday Schools in the
State have already entered the pro-
Ject. In addition pastors have been
asked to present the Near East Re-
lief cause from the pulpits during
some Sunday in December.
In spite of the Forthcoming sup
port by the Sunday Schools and
churches it has been felt that a gen.
eral appeal should be made and this
will be done through Senator Rum
yon's letter. 1t is said that despite
the recent efforts of the League of
Nations to bring peace to Armenia
are as terrible as any time during
the war.
Armenia has been completely
devastated, both by organized Turk
ish effort and by rowing Kurdish
bandits. All the summer crops, as
well as their seed supply and agricul-
tural implements, have been taken by
the Turkish. Two hundred and fifty
thousand Armenian orphans are today
starving and added to these are thou
sands of mothers.
1t has been announced by the State
Office in Newark that the Near East
Relief has no connection with any
other organization. By an act of
congress the Near East Relief was
Incorporated and is authorized to take
complete charge of securing and dis
tribution of all aid to these stricken
people.

Dairymen's League
Reduces Price of Milk

The Dairymen's. League directors
have voted to sell December milk for
1913. This is for milk testing 8 per
cent. butter fat at, the s200-210 mile,
zone with the usual sdifferentials for
freight and butter fat. 81
Although for fifteen years it has
been the custom, because of incrcas-
ing costs of producing December milk,
to sell it for mare than November
milk, yet this years December price
will be At cents hundred or one cent
a quart cheaper than the November
price. The directors found that the
majority of sentiment among MEM
bers of the organization was for lower
prices and. thai such lowered price
should be passed ON to the consumer.
This is in line with what is taking
place in the prizes Of all other prod
ucts and commodities, and it is
thought it will tend to increase the
consumption of milk at time when
there is a surplus in league territory,
due to the fact that much of the milk
which formerly went to manufacture
ers is not now being sold.
Borden's Farm Products Company
have announced that they would pass
the full reduction on to the consumer.
It is expected that other distributors
will do the SAM.
Even at this reduced price the
manufacturing dealers who have re-
fused to buy milk since December 1st
will probably not buy milk of the
Dairymen's League during December.
As2proof of the fact that these com-
panies are not 50 mach interested in
not buying as~they. are in trying to
