From Well-Known Men

= Interview with DIR. Adolf Lorenz, noted
Orthepedic Specialist, his arrival in New York.
"They tell me that the Jews of America are to-
give $14,0000OO more to aid the people of Eastern
Europe.
IT have watched the work of the American
Jewish Relief Committee, as with the gifts which
your generosity lavished upon u.s. they fed the
starving children and cared for the sick and desti-
tute. have said it before and cannot say it too
often, that, without the help which America has SO
freely given, Vienna would today be vast grave
yard
"Uncounted thousands of children in Europe
their very lives to the Joint Distribution Com
mittee and to the organizations which raised the
money that Committee has disbursed. The greater
part of it came thru the American Jewish Relief
Committee. The American Jewish Relief Com
mittee has my heartfelt thanks and the thanks of
thousands of others. On their success in the
present appeal for $14000,00O depend the life and
comfort of other thousands no less needy. I am
not of their faith but humanity knows no race or
creed when there is work of mercy to be done
Therefore 1 say, God bless the Jews of America
and prosper them in this new task!''
