Time has healed most of the wounds of the war. In the United States the scans have almost vanished. Hut in Central and Eastern Europe a great open war wound remains. Its suffer ers are little children children of war allies and war enemies, Cath olic and Protestant, Jew and Gentile but all too young to have hail a part in making the circumstances of which they are now the helpless victims. In the eye of America they are just hungry little children 3,500,000 of them who will die or suffer per manent injury through the stunting of mind and body from the effects of underfeeding unless America con tinues its great self-imposed charity of providing them with supplementary food and necessary medicines. In order to save these children eight great American organizations have banded together as the European relief council and have appealed to the American people. , The organ izations are the federal council of the churches of Christ in America, the American Red Cross, the American relief administration, the Knight of Columbus, the American Friends service committee, the Jewish joint distribution committee, the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A. Herbert Hoover is national chairman. For mer Secretary of the Interior Frank lin K. Lane is treasurer. The charity of the European re lief Council is being administered on a policy that prevents pauper ization and that developed self help. Every American dollar contributed to the starving children draws ifrom European sources as cash, fbod, :rent, light, heat and transportation. iThe three dollars is so expended that : it will give one child one full meal a tlay for one month.
