/ What it means TO civilization to
save these children, aside from the
point of view of mercy, has been told
to the New Orleans public at many
meetings during the last week by
Captain R. r. Hand. a representative
of the LaSalle Extension University,
whosrved under Hoover abroad.
Odd and pathetic little waits they
are, sitting pale and unseen shadows
among the bright linen and silver
and flowers of American dinner
tables. For all the years of their
little, hungry lives, they have never
seen any food except the coarsest
black bread and the thinnest soup,
and never enough of that. Things,
in postwar days of depression and
unrest, have become worse and
worse, until now even the hard bread
and weak soup Will stop unless
: American dollars, $33,000,000 of
| them, can be found to purchase food
and ship it to them. Without this
food. 100000 children in Europe
