MEETING EAGER TO HELP IRISH SUFFERERS

One room and one meeting at the Buck not large enough to hold the unparalleled crowd that responded to the invitation to meet to hear what Norwich and it's ad- jacent districts might do in response to the appeal sent out by the American Committee for Relief in Ireland.
 When eK-Mayor T. c. Murphy, general chairman, called the meeting to order at 3 o'clock the post hall was crowded to sumocation, while the hall and stairway leading to the hall were damned with those who could not get into the room. In this situation it was necessary to hold a second meeting in the post room after the first in the hall had adjourned so that those who had not been able to get into the first meeting could attend the second.
 Both meetings showed the most intense interest in responding to this humanitar- ian appeal to relieve the suffering in Ire- land, where aid to those who are in dire need will be administered without any question of politics or religion being con- sidered
 The meeting Sunday was largely pre- linainary but during this week the or ganization will be forwarded and another l meeting will be held next Sunday at some place to De anAOunceu Ine aeIYe -caEn- pRign will open March 1T to raise the s.
 00e which has been allotted to the dis triet that includes Norwich and half . dozen surrounding towns.
 Ex-Mayor Murphy opened the meeting
 with a stirring appeal for earnest .woTl
 to help the desperate needs of the sui ferers in Ireland. He announced John J Corkery as the campaign manager. apt MT. Corkery also spoke impressively o
 the objects o fthe organization.
 Rev. ". A. Keefe, pastor of St. Nary
 church, was the principal moving thi hearts of his hearers with his ringing ap peal that our ears might not be deaf tt
 cry of suffering from Ireland. Fathe Keefe repeated his address at the over tnow meeting.
 Besides organizing with MT. Corkery al jcampsigp manager, Thomas H. Beekle! was elected secretary and John M. Lee treasurer.

drafted for this work or have volunteer ed I serve willingly and rely on the strength of e1s cause and the eo-opera- tion of this splendid gathering for sue- cess. A worthy cause and united effort has always met with success in every American community.
 This campaign that we inaugurate here today is not a political movement; it is not a seetarian movement it is a move ment for humanity.
 We are Americans and whatever con- .cerns humanity concerns us.
 We are here, my friends, to meet a, con- ditien-a deplorable eondition-and not to discuss any theory Today--yes, at tfais very moment-countless thousands of men, women and children are starving o1 in danger of starving to death in Ireland Little children are clinging to the tat tered garments of their parents and gag. ing piteously into their faces begging fol food and the distracted parents art standing by, tortured with the reelection that they can afford no suceor or reliei to the dearest objects of their hearts I This is no fancy picture, but, from tn. i words of eye=witnesses. is one of dail. occurrence
 l The people of Ireland appeal to Amsri ca today-not as strangers. The peopl
 of Ireland are so closely allied to us a
 to be almost part and parcel of us-bon of our bone and flesh of our flesh. 1 The Irish soldier has fought by th side of the American soldier in ever l war in which we have been engaged--ol
 every battle field from Quebec to Monte rey-and shared in all the dangers an perils of the conflict.
 In battle, in the fulness of his strengt and pride. little recks the soldier whethe the missing bullet sir / his sudden requier I or the cords of lifo be severed by tn
 sharp steel; but ne, who, dies of hunge wrestles day by day with his grim an unrelenting foe, He has not the he blood of the soldier to enliyen him. fo his foe like srepent has exhausted hi veins.
 America would be false to her best trs
 ditions. if the appeal that comes to U today were not answered. The peopl
 of Ireland are in urgent need of food an clothing and in addition they need th message from America-that message ( material sympathy for the afflicted ths lhas never been withheld.
