Columbus, O., Sept. 2.-The Na';o~.
Il Lutheran Council, organized IN

reconstruction problems of the LIZ

net here today TO formulate a pro
gram of it's work for world servicc
this fall.
A mass meeting of Lutherans will
be held here tonight at which How
ard r. Gold, national director of Lu.
theran World Service, will outline the
steps being necessary to meet condi
tons facing Lutherans in Europe.
The facts are that the Lutheran
church has $500 900 adherents in Ell.
"ope, of whom about $4,000, 900 have
been seriously affected by the war.
hundreds of thousands of Lutheran
ave persisted and large number of
,hurches ands church institutions have
been destroyed
The Lutheran church has large
membership in the famine districts
If southern Russia, such as the valley
Of the Volga river, the Black sea dis
trict and the Ukraine. Reports re-
Heived by the National Council from
hese areas state that conditions there
re horrible and that the shortage of
rops has left no hope for millions of
PEOPLE for the coming year.
The Council has RECEIVED a cable
gram from its commissioner. DR.. j. A.
Morehead. that he has reached Mos
cow and Petrograd with emergency
.'elief, but this was only temporary
and makes no provision for hundreds
IF thousands. of others in other Rus
sian cities or in the stricken rural dis
tricts.
The council has received message
from Odessa saying that 80 per cent
Of the people in the hospitals there
are suffering from tNThus. are dying
solely from a lack oL medical care,
that the hospitals are poorly equipped
and there is a great dcarth Of phyS;-
clans. The council is confronted with
he necessity of providing funds no
Jnly for the Russian LutheraHs but
or those in central European coun-
tries.
TO meet this situation it proposes
o continue its three-year program by
which it planned to raise $J000,000

letted about $l,500,000. Ii is believed.
lowhwere, that $f,250,000 to be raised
next year will be sufficient to continue
