CHILDREN IN CHINA'S FAMINE AREA AIDED.
LONDON, July 26.
At the annual meeting of the council of the Save the Children Fund in London, Lord Weardale presidirg. said that £552,735 had been received during the past year. There were 170,000 direct subscribers in addition to thousands of ancayraous helpers. The fund by counteracting international bitterness has been working better for the future of Europe than all the statesmen. The report shewed that the fund in two years had amounted to $950,000. A home fand had been estabished as distinct from the foreign fund. In addition to the relief granted in Central Europe grants had been made to Armenian and Russian refugee orphans, also to child sufferers in the famine area in China and to Russian and Turkish children suffering in the concentration camps for refugees at Constantinople.
NEW YORK, July 26. $29,000,000 was collected in the United States to May 1 for the relief of children in Europe. All except $2,000,000 has been distributed.
