Poor in Omaha in Dire Need and Yet No Helping Hand What Is the matter with klndhearted Omaha? Mrs. George W. Doane of the Asso ciated Charities is asking this question. While thousands of dollars are being raised to aid the suffering In the war cono ef Europe, nothing la being given toward the aid of local sufferers. Mrs. Doane haa a large list of needy famllles--fnthers out of work, children In rags and barely enough food on hand to east the pangs of hunger but Omaha Is giving nothing to relieve these needs. "It is rather peculiar," said Mrs. Doane. "I do not understand It." Mrs. Doane needs help any kind of sub stantial help clothes, food, money.
