European Relief Council aims to save 3.5 million European children
The European Relief Council led by Herbert Hoover seeks 33 million dollars for Christmas relief to feed and medically aid up to 3.5 million European children at risk from war. It urges local committees nationwide to raise funds with a two to one matching plan and outlines where to send checks to support food and medical services.
Plight of Europe’s children spurs relief efforts
An actinic appeal cites millions of European children facing starvation and disease as 1920 winter looms. Polish hardships, under nourished Austrian and other central regions, prompt Red Cross and relief groups to mobilize aid for millions, with medical needs also escalating amid cholera and tuberculosis threats. The article notes American relief, food, and medical support amid ongoing postwar hardship.

Oklahoma Divorces Reform Proposal to Advertise Marriages
Rev E P Cameron president of the National Anti Divorce League said the Oklahoma legislature will get a bill requiring sixty day newspaper notices before marriages. The proposal would require county court petitions detailing parties and prior marriages, a physician certificate, and would have marriages performed by ordained ministers. If lawmakers reject it, Cameron will take the measure to voters via initiative petition. The plan aims to spread to other states later.
