trouble we never had foodless day
and if we did we never had two of
them in succession.
But that is exactly what is going on
in Central and Eastern Europe today.
Literally thousands of innocent chill
dren are dying for lack of nOurish-
ment. They are wandering about eat
ing roots, grass, anything to try to
satisfy the growing pangs of hunger.
The same thing is true of men and
women. Homeless, clothed in rags,
living on anything that offers even the
meanest nOurishment, they are stumb-
ling on praying for the relief that
must come if they are to live.
This is the reason for the campaign
for funds by the American Jewish
Relief Committee in Kentucky the lat
ter part of March.

BLUE GRASS FIRES
THE OPENING GUN
Big Meeting At Lexington Starts The
Campaign For The American
Jewish Relief Committee
Delegates From Many Cities Gather
To Form Organization For Rails
ing Money For Stricken Peo-
pie Of Europe

One of the most enthusiastic meet
ings ever held in the Blue Grass was
called to order in the Lafayette Hotel
in Lexington Sunday afternoon, March
8, by Gus. L. Heyman, who introduced
Col. Fred Levy, of louisville, State
Chairman of the drive in Kentucky to
raise $150,OOO for the relief of destitute
Jewish people in Central and Eastern
Europe.
Delegates were present from Lex
ingtOn, Winchester, Paris, Carlisle,
Cynthiana, Danville and other cities in
the Blue Grass.
Col. Levy in his address told of the
great needs of the starving and desti-
tute children, of the men and women,
in the war-tOrn sections of Central and
Eastern Europe who, through no fault
Of their own, were compelled to under
go untold sufferings and whose only
relief lies in the willingness of the
people of the United States to help
them.
Col. Levy referred to the great work
of Jimmie" Becker, son of a rich
Chicago banker, who refused a life of
ease and as member of Herbert
Hoover's relief forces abroad brought
back to this country such a sOulstir-
ring appeal that julius ROsenwald, the
well known financier, called confer
ence which started the great drive.
David A. Brown, a successful business
man Of Detroit who attended the con-
ference was so impressed that he turn
ed back his tickets already purchased
for a years pleasure trip abroad and
plunged into the task of raising $14,-
100000 for relief work.
"We are going to give as we have
never given before, said Col. Levy,
land until every orphan, every victim
has been provided with food and cloth
ing, homes, hospitals, schools and I'M
til each man is granted the right to
work and support his family. These
sufferers are not beggars; many among
them were financially better off than
you and are before they were caught
In the malestrOm Of war. They are
not asking for charity. They are ask
ing for relief and we are going to see
that they get it. We invite members
of other faiths to join with us in this
great work..
Other speakers were Rabbi RaCch
of Louisville, Jonas We'll, of Lexlng-
ton, Edward Sachs, of Louisville and
many others. A mass meeting will be
held in Lexington Sunday, March 19,
when the campaign in the Blue Grass
will be started.

KENTUCKYS THOROUGHBRED
Contribution To THE NATION
Under the System the Kentucky Jockey Club
Has Lifted Racing to the Highest Plane An Example
to the Whole Country-$3, Ats, 675.0O Distributed
In Three Years
{From the New York Rider and Driver)

Whenever the thoroughbred is men,
toned, Kentucky, the home Of Man
q War, and for a hundred years the
center of the breeding industry in
this country, always comes to mind.
ft is not possible to conceive Of rae
ing In America without the yearly
centribution of thoroughbreds from
the Bluegrass State. There are great
breeding farms in New York, Virginia,
California and elsewhere, but the
very life blood Of the thoroughbred
cause pours from Kentucky's ever
flowing fountain. In this favored
State, with its fertile fields deep in
bluegrass throughout the winter, the
horse reaches perfection.
The Rider and Driver does not
mow of any greater calamity that
could happen to the horse industry
than for Kentucky to turn against the
thoroughbred, and destroy the great
breeding industry, which has not only
made the State world-famous, but
has aided every farmer in America
COY improving the breed Of horses,
NThe War Department has repeatedly
gone On record in favor of the thor
oughbred, without which the Army
would not have suitable remounts.
The Remount Service, in charge of
United States Army officers, has es-
tablished breeding farms with thor
oughbred stations at their head,
horses that have had their speed,
courage and endurance tried in con-
tests on the turf. These great nur-
series will provide the type of cav
AIRY horse that the Army needs, and
every farmer In this country cannot
only aid the cause by sending his
mares to thoroughbred studs, but can
be assured Of reaping a substantial
profit, as the War Department is con-
stantly in the market for horses Of
this character.

ADMIT REFUGEES
FROM NEAR EAST
WITNESSES ASK
House immigration Com
mittee Hears Pleas in Be-
half of Christians Who
Are Prosecuted by Turks

stories of the privations and per-
secutions suffered by Christians in

Immigration committee today In
support of the White bill proposing

One Of those who testified was
ELIZA Shakinian, herself a refugee,
whose flight was stopped at Ellis

Immigration authorities, she came
10 Washington, and between sobs,
related how she had been carried
into captivity by the Turks, how
her near relatives all had been
killed, one by one, and how she
had made her way TO America, only
TO find the door closed in her face.
George Horton, who was Amer

recent Greco-Turkish hostilities in
that region, corroborated many or
the assertions made by other Wit-
nesses regarding the tribulations Of
the Christion mtnorities in Turkey.
He said he was speaking Wnolly
Tor himself and not as a represen-
.tative of the state department. but
could not refrain from saying a
word for those who had suffered
so patiently in the Near East.

sested that the refugees had occu-

resources and should be sent back
there to work out their own saliva

COTTON CROP IN
EDDY COUNTY IS
A NONE MAKER
Almost a Million Dollars Is
the Estimated Value of
the 1922 Output; Acreage
to Be Increased

Artesia, N. NJ, Dec, 19.--Mana-
ger II, y. Larsh, OF the Artesia
Ginning company, has announced
that the local gin has ceased all
operations for this season, after a
most successful year. Between
six and seven hundred bales have
been ginned at Artesia this sea-
son. This is the second year for
the local plant. The farmers have
depended on the cotton crop TO
take the place formerly filled by
the alfalfa crops. As each bale
has brought between 500 and
$3.50 TO the grower. about $780,
600 has been brought to the COM
munity by the crop.
The other gins of Eddy county
located under the Carlsbad pro.
ject at Carlsbad, Otis, Loving,
Upton, and Malaga, have ginned
almost 1000 bales. This netted
the growers of cotton in Eddy
county almost $1,000 900.
The farmers are intending to
increase the acreage next season
by several thousand acres. The
crop is proving to be Unusually
profitable and grows exceedingly
well in this locality. The quality
is the highest of the long staple
variety.
