Three hundred baby hospitals and
institutions for children in Italy are
now being supplied with milk by the
American Free Milk Fund. and
through it's dispensaries and milk dis
tributing centers 100000 babies have
been rescued, but many provinces
have not yet been reached, for the
relief can go only as far as the milk
goes. The institutions already Nestab-
lished must be maintained and the
work can be extended only through
larger shipments of milk.
The situation in Italy is briefly this:
The people are ,burdened with tre-
mendous taxation necessary to pay
their war debts and the currency so
deprecated in consequence that they
| cannot buy from us with the ruinous
exchange now existing. Few people
which used to be equal to 20 cents in
our money, is now worth only 3 1-2
cents. Five dollars used to be the
equivalent of 25 lire. Now it takes
nearly $50 lire to purchase five. dol
lars worth OF American goods.
The milk that we arc sending over
costs us here, wholesale IL cents a
quart, but If it is sold to the poor
| italian. he must pay nearly &C cents
| q quart for it in Italy.
|, Can Italian babies be properly fed
with our milk if we sell it to them?
Italy's suffering babies are the vic
| tins of war-they are reaping the re-
suits Of Italys great sacrifice in "the
| cause" which was "Our Cause" Italy
was our friend and ally. Shall we be
| content to offer her no sympathy, no
aid? a cup of milk is all that is asked
| in her namc-that her babies-the
future hope Of the nation-may not
