pestilence, nnd stalking hand In hand
with death from exposure, from vlo

"In the mountains between ICars
and Alexandropol there arc 203,000
human hcjngs without clothing, food or
shelter In the bitter winter, who are
wandering from place to place like
people In a nightmare. .Unless they
aro succored before the end of an
other month, they will nil bo dcud.
In southern Pcrsln, tho remnnnt of the
ancient family of Chaldean Christians
have been forced to renounce forever
all hope of ever returning to the home
land where they have dwelt nnd flour
ished for 1,000 years, and to become
pitiful fugitives, dependent upon the
generosity of strangers for life Itself.
In Clllcia, 15,000 Armenian refugees
have crowded Into the coast regions
seeking safety from the anarchy which
reigns In the Interior, In terror for
their lives. They live from day to
day on the food which Is given them
In the soup kitchens established by
the Near Kast Belief. Scattered
throughout the Near East, there are
some 7,700,490 Armenians, the re
mainder of a nation of 1,000.000, who
have neither government, country,
homeland, shelter or hqpe of regenera
tion, save thnt whhh lies In the great
heart of America.
"It Is a tragedy to stupendous thnt
It Is dllllcult for us to grnsp Its mean
ing. A whole nation, a living, Christian
people, face Jo face with extermina
tion today, unless we help. We shall
see an entire nation disappear from
the face of tho earth before our eyes
if wo withhold our hand now, when
the call comes to us to save by giving,
cr by Jnnctlon to condemn to death.
Save the Children!
"Perhaps we cannot save all tho
grown peopde of this oldest Christian
nation ln-thc world. But ut least we
can save the little children who hold
tho future In their hands. They have
wronged no one. They hnvo harmed
no one. And they have suffered
through tho precious years of child
hood a calvary of agony nnd wretched
nesB. For three years the Near East
Relief, an American organization, In
corporated by Congress, has built up
tho nucleus of a new generation In the
Near East, with tho little children
that It has taken In from the roadside
and barren places, and nursed back to
health, fed, clothed, housed nnd edu
cated, In the name of the American
people who have furnished the funds
for this great work.
"This bus been our slgnnl contribu
tion to the world's future peace that
tens of thousands of these little ones
shall all their lives look to us with
gratitude and faith. It Is a seed of
world brotherhood that we have sown.
Shall we let It die now?
"Tho Near Hast Relief Is appealing
to the American peoplo for the money
to go on with this work to keep these
little ones alive and to save this
martyred Christian people. Sixty dol

sponsibility upon us. A whole nation
