Province Makes Extension
of Relief Necessary

Thomas W, Lamont, chairman of the
American Committee for the China
Famine Fund, csbled yesterday from
Paris an announeem or the continu-
alton of the committees work and or
ganization for further period of
sixty days.
II have learned with deep concern"
reads Mr.. Lamonts cable, that seri-
Gus crop failure is again imminent in
the province of Chilli. and that relief
for further period must be provided
Tor upward of two million people.
"In view of the extraordinary devo-
tion and effective service shown by
every member of the organization and
by all cooperating bodies, I have the
greatest reluctance to urge further
sacrifice upon those unselfsh friends,
yet I feel that the need is so impera-
tive and that China is still looking so
urgently to US in America that we
should make every effort to continue
our organization intact and carry on
the campaign undated for a further
sixty days. By that time I am san
guine that our report will show that
the pressing necessity for relief has
been met"
