Famine Fund Reaches Midpoint in Mercy Drive for China
Thomas W. Lamont announces the China Famine Fund has reached half its mission to send aid to starving victims in the far eastern republic. He notes relief to date has checked famine growth, but about 5,000,000 still need continuous contributions to survive until the June harvest. The appeal urges Americans to “pick a pal in China for a day” and donate one day’s spending to the fund through local committees or directly to Vernon Munroe, treasurer.
