In southern Persia. the remnant of the
ancient family of Chaldean Christians
have been forced to renounce forever
all hope of ever returning to the home
land where they have dwelt and flour
ished for 1000 years, and to become
pitiful fugitives, dependent upon the
generosity of strangers for life itself
In Cilicia, $4,000 Armenian refugees
have crowded into the coast regions
seeking safety from the 2narchy which
reigns in the interior, in terror for
their lives. They live from day To
day on the food which is given them
in the soup kitchens established by
the Near East Relief. Scattered
throughout the Near East, there are
some 10000 Armenians, the re-
mainder of nation of 100000. who
have neither government, country,
homeland, shelter or hope of regenera-
ton, save that which lies in the great
heart of America.

Save the childrenl
perhaps we cannot save all the
grown people of this oldest Christian
nation in the world. But at least we
can save the little children who hold
the future In their hands. They have
wronged no one. They have harmed
no one. And they have suffered
through the precious years of child
hood a calvary of agony and wretched-
ness For three years the Near East
Relief, an American organization, in
corporated by Congress, has built up
the nucleus of a new generation in the
Near East, with the little children
that II has taken in from the roadside
