100000 CHILDREN
FACING STARVATION
Vast Relief Effort Launched by
Eight Leading American Organ
izations to Avert Tragedy.

The most spontaneous as well as the
largest consolidation of effort in the
history of American relief and charita-
Bile organizations has grown out of the
disaster which threatens 100000
European children this winter. To the
headquarters of every agency that dis
penses American mercy overseas has
come n steady cry for months past;
the children, most helpless and blame
less sufferers in the track Of war, Will
perish by the thousands before next
harvest unless America saves them!
When DR.. Livingston Farrand, chair
man Of the Central Committee Of the
American Red Cross, returned from a
recent trip abroad, his report throbbed
with the need of the children. From
the feeding-stations of the American
Relief Administration throughout east
ern and central Europe came letters,
cables, pleas Of every sort. The Pro-
testant churches sent Investigators
int after-war conditions and every
report breathed the impending tragedy
Of starving and diseased children.
Protestant, Catholic and Jewish, the
child life of Europe is threatened with
heartrending misery.
The European Relief Council, with
Herbert Hoover as chairman and the
whole power of American charitable
thought and effort behind it, has been
formed. It consists of Edgar Rick
ard, representing the American Relief
Administration; DR.. Livingston Far
rand, representing the American Red
Cross; Felix Warburg, representing
the Jewish Joint Distribution Commit
tee; Wilbur K. Thomas, representing
the American Friends Service Com
mittee; James A. Flaherty, represent
ing the knights Of Columbus; DR.. G.
Y. Hibbard, representing the Young
Mems Christian Association; Miss
Sarah S. Lyon, representing the Young
Women's Christian Association; DR..
Arthur Brown, representing the Fed
eral Council of Churches.
It is the purpose of the Council to
raise $33, 100000, in an appeal center
ing at the Christmas holidays, to the
end that the situation regarding child
life may be met. In every town and
community Of the nation, it Is hoped,
local committees, representing all the
cooperating agencies will be formed
to secure the vitality necessary funds
OF the amount sought, $23,000,00O will
be used for basic food. For every one
of these American dollars the Local
governments and communities aided
will furnish two dollars, in the form
Of transportation, labor, guards, cleri
cal help, cash contributions and such
food supplies as are locally obtainable
No children receive the free food eX
cept after medical tests showing then
to be seriously under-nourished. The
remaining $10,0o0,o00 Of the fund i:
Just as urgently needed for medica
service to the children.
The European Relief Council will d.
much more than effect economies il
the raising Of the childsaving fund
1t will, with the inspecting forces O.
eight great agencies, keep a constan
eye on the administration Of America

be no wastage and no tendency towart

PLIGHT OF EUROpE'S
CHILDREN STAGGERS
3,50o,00o Facing Starvation Can
Only Be Saved by Americas
Response to Joint Appeal.

1t IL utterly impossible for one who
has not actually seen the misery Of
the early Autumn in Europe to visual
lie what the children Of the Eastern
and Central portions of the continent
face this winter. To say that 100000
children have no alternative to starva-
ton or death from disease except
American aid, is startling, but independ-
ent observers by the score and care
full scientific surveys Of the economic
and crop conditions overseas brand
the figure as conservative.
In Poland, for instance, where 1905
900 youngsters last year subsisted al
most entirely on the one free Ameri-
a meal a day that they received, con
ditions as winter closes down, are
worse than ever before. The Bolshe-
vik invasion stripped large portions Of
the country Of all grain. Professor
E. D. Durand, Food Advisor to the
Polish government, after an exhaustive
survey, has reported that only forty
per cent is available Of the food neces-
sary to carry the population through
the winter.
In the city of Vienna tests conducted
IN the American Relief Administration
feod kitchens showed that 81 per cent
Of the children between the ages Of 6
and IA were seriously under-nourish-
ed" Thirty-three per cent we're mark
edly under-nourlshed, IL per cent were
slightly subnormal and only 4 per cent
approached the state Of a normal
American child. The Ameri AN Relief
Administration is feeding 100000
Austrian children every day now, and
there is no chance Of dimunition of
need before mex harvest.
The spectacle Of the medical needs
Of Europe's children is equally ap-
palling. Estimates reaching the Amer
lean Red Cross IS to needs for medical
service in the destitute areas this Win
ter include Old Apstria-H gary, $780,
600; new Poland, 1,500,CvO; Czecho-
Slovakia, 100000; Serbia, 10000, and
Roumania, 100000. In the fiscal year
Of 1919-20 the Red Cross has reached
with the veritable gift Of life 1,500,0 DOC
children in the affected areas. Tuber.
culosis is prevalent TO a terrific degree.
Five children out Of seven in the city
Of Warsaw, for instance, have beer
found to be t~ubercular. ryphus is
widespread; ricketts,, the right hand oil
under-nourishment Is almost universal
and cholera lifts it's grim head con
stantly in one place and another.

Before this ive-year-old Vienna girl

more horribly deformed from ricketts,
and she was in constant instead Of In

is straight again, and by degrees she is
r~elearning to walk. ricketts, is the
aftermath Of under-nutrition, and 1t is
to cut down the narrowing prevalence
of such disease as this among the chill

ease and all their attendant miseries.
