Relief Officer Says.

Chief Of American Relief administrator

Red Cross Relief work In Greece. y
Written for Cosmopolitan News Service.
NEW YORK, Jan. 6.-To aid in
the feeding and medical care Of
100000 homeless and near starving
Greeks and others who have been
driven from Thrace and other Turk
ish possessions by the Turkish
army and who have taken refuge
in Greece and islands in the Aegean
Sea, is the new job on which ! am
leaving here for Athens tomorrow.
To house them is the work of the
Greek government.
The plight OF these people is
more than desperate. The aid they
need cannot be given by the Greek
authorities because of lack Of
funds. Hence, it will be American
money and American effort that
must save tens Of thousands from
starvation and death by disease.
For various reasons no European
country can give this aid.
The exact plan to be followed
cannot be determined in detail I'M
til my arrival, but needless to say,
with 1 100000 men and women and
children scattered in the mainland
and adjoining islands the task is
going to be big and difficult.
OF the $4,000 900 appropriated for
relief purposes $1,600,0O0 has al
ready been expended in emergency
cases. With the remainder we hope
to be able to aid the sufferers until
they can become sef-supporting

their government What the condi-
tons would be if American help
was not given them 1t would be
fearful to think. Even now the
scarcity of food and deaths from dis
ease have been great notwithstand.
