Gentiles Join Jews.
This campaign la remarkable in that,
Cfcls year, for the first time, the Jews
re accepting the organized support of
eo-Jews In work for the relief of
lews. Always heretofore, the Jews
fete cared for their own, the Ameri
can Jews having contributed $25,000,
00 alnce the war began for the aid of
their co-rellglonlsts in Europe.
Seventy-three per cent of 'all the
Jews In the world live In the war
wept countries of Europe. The burden
was more than the remaining 27 per
cent could carry. It has become, too,
tore than a religious charity ; It Is a
great humanitarian work for the sav
fM of a race. .
European Jewry, because of Its lo-
cation In the center of war's shifting
fortunes on the Eastern Front and
aw In the center of the chaos which
' tea succeeded war, has suffered priva
tions, starvation and destitution be
ytsd Imagination. Nebraska, at peace,
3 touched by war or by the threaten
tag band of social and economic an
eveby, can hardly conceive a situation
t pitiable as this which exists across
Of sea.
This 1 the situation which brought
frem President Woodrow Wilson the
Biatemcnt:
"The American public, Irrespective
of race or creed, should respond lib
erally to the tall for help from strick
en Europe."
As Senator Fanlsbury of Delaware
declared, after Joining with all his
power In the rampnlgn In I tela ware' :
"This Is not or.ly n Jewish move
ment ; It Is a human movement. It will
clothe where clothing la needed and
feed where feeding la needed ; It will
go wherever the cry of humanity calls
It It Is of human being, for human
beings and by human beings."
The Governor's Proclamation.
Governor McKelvle has Issued the
following proclamations
"To the People of Nebraska:
"Peace has brought us prosperity
and plenty, such as we have not known
before.
"At the same time, millions of peo
ple abroad, who through years of war
fare have suffered unparalleled misery,
ruin, starvation and death, are now
confronted not with the prosperity we
enjoy, but with abject misery. Heart
rending, Indeed, Is the suffering and
privation of millions of Jews of
Poland, Galicla, Itournanla and other
parts of war-town Europe and the
East. Their condition stands out
among the greatest horrors of history's
most horrible wsr.
?In the face of these terrible condi
tions, which threaten the extinction of
an entire people, I call upon the
citizens of the state, without regard
to creed or race, to lend their aid in
service and in money In behalf of
these unfortunate people.
"The Jewish people of Nebraska
bave answered generously and loyally
every call for patriotic and humane
service, without ever questioning creed
or denomination, and I am confident
that the people of Nebraska will come
forward gladly and generously In be
half of our stricken human brothers.
"I therefore proclaim the week of
September 15, 1010, to September 22,
1010, as JEWISH WAR RELIEF
WEEK and I urge every man and
woman of our state to aid In the ful
lest measure In behalf of this worthy
cause.

A NATION DYING.
In Warsaw, which had not been
destroyed, a city of one million ln
habitarts, one of the most prosper
ous cities of Europe before the war,
the streets were lined with people
In the pangs of starvation. Fam
ished and raln-aoaked, they squat
ted there, with their elbowa on
their knees or leaning against the
buildings, too feeble to lift a hand
for a bit of money, or a morael of
bread If one offered It, periahlng of
hunger and cold. Charity did what
It eould. The rich gave all that they
had, the poor ehared their last
cruet Hundreds of thousands were
perishing. Day and night the pic
ture la before my eyes a people
starving, a nation dying. (From F.
C. Walcott. Issued by the United
