"In the mountains between Kars

perhaps we cannot save all the

can save the little children who hold

wronged no one. They have harmed
no one And they have suffered
through the precious years Of child
hood 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 new generation in the
Near East, with the little children
