Lorens, Executor o f ths sf N ‘¿.IS ;■ * ■ ■■' After two years and a half beneath the upper and nether millstones of war, the Belgium people And themselves facing a new peril-the slow starvation of more than one million children. The meagre rations that have barely sufficed for adults have proved insufficient for growing children. There are 1,260,000 of theee children who are directly dependant qpqn the food supplied by the Commission for Relief in Belgium. The ration with which that Commission has been able to supply is lees than is provided to British prisoners in Germany, lees than that provided German pris oners ^England and about two-thirds that supplied to poorhouses of England by the British Government It is enough to keep body and soul together in an adult It is not enough to even do that for the growing children. It consists of “a hunk of bread and a bowl of broth each.,day” and it costs about six cents One i WH m i Belgian children most have an extra ration each day or they are going to die of alow starvation. This extra ration consists of a biscuit made of lard or fat and a cup of cocoa.. THAT IS A L L ; but it is enough to arrest the degeneration of the growing child. THAT IS A L L ; but it is enough to check the ravages of tuberculosis, rickets and other diseases that have begun to develop with alarming rapidity among the unnourished children. THAT IS A L L ; but it means the difference between life and death, 'between continued vitality and slow starvation. One biscuit a day! “ A little more, and oh, how much it is!” One dollar a month will supply this extra ration and save a child. The ap peal comes to the United States to furnish that money and save these children. It comes from Herbert Hoover, chairman of the Commission for Relief of Bel gium. It comes from the Pope, in a letter to Cardinal Gibbons. It comes from American Physicians (Dr. Lucps, bf the University of California, is one of them) who have made examinations olfehase children fo rm e Commission. It is an appeal ¿hat comes from the most distressed nation on earth to the wealthi est nation the sun ever shone upon. How in God’s Name Can Such Appeal Be Disregarded?

For all the distreesed people o f Europe, A sia and A frica, ac cording to the Comptroller o f Currency, we have contributed, since the w a r began, less than one-twentieth o f one per cent o f our aggregate income. That is to say, w e have di verted one dollar out o f $2,000 o f income to the relief o f such distress as the world has nev er before seen. And in this sam e time, provisions fo r the Belgians alone have been pur chased from this, country to the amount o f over $100,000,000, according to the official docu ments o f the R elief Commission. What will Coos County do to save the Belgian children? It is not generally understood that, even in times o f peace, Belgium has to im port 78 per cent o f her breadstuffs. Even in normal conditions she produces but 22 per cent The harvest o f 1914 was never reaped. The Am erican commissioners all testify that those B el gians who have means have done and are doing their utmost in relief-w ork. It is “ up to " Am erica to save these million atarving children, if they are to be saved— to give a biscuit a day as a supplementary meal, in addition to the lees than poorhouse rations now received. $12 will give that extra meal to One Child for a year The SE N TIN E L appeals for contributions in sums of $100, $50, $25 $10 $5 $3, $2, $1, or anything you can contribute and get your friends to help mate e total.
