Every mandate of humanity, it Is declared, called upon the committea to double existing appropriations, or make at least a 50 per cent increase, but the committee also faced the fact that the treasury is depleted, and increases arc not coming in as fast as might be desired. A cablegram containing the {l news; of the cut has been sent to the Con- stantinople headquarters of the Near East. Accordin to a statement sent out today, the 25 per cent cut liter- ally m h 1o thousands of innocent children. The committee is determined to save and will save the children al- ready received into the orphanages ci protection, ources are under to our X table, and we will not drive them away to die,” It is stated. There are at least another hun- dred thousand, the committee points out, who are dying and need help. In addition to the children, there are hundreds of thousands of women and girls driven in midwinter from the plains of Cilicia or destitute upon the famine-stricken plateaus of the Cau- casus. These Christian refugees in Bible lands now stand under the sentence of death by starvation. “Will America commute the death isentence for the children?” is asked by the committee. Five dollars a month saves the life of an orphaned child, the committee states. Y. M. C. A.

DeGast went to the site vesterday and arranged for the cultlvation of fifteen acres of land, which will produce enoush veg- etabies to feed the boys for the sum- mer, it is said. An apple orchard of 200 trees is also to be reconditioned.

Five hundred Individual specimens, includingrearthenware vessels, stone im- plements, such as axes, hammers and mills for grinding of corn and other foodstuffs, necklaces of shell and brightly colored stone, have been re- ceived by the division of American archeology _from the _archeological Society of Washington, Inc., of which Robert Lansing is president, and in- stalled In the National Museum. : The collection, waich is declared by the Smithsonian Institution to be “one of the most interesting as well as one of the most instructive that has been received in the division of American archeology since the beginning of the recent world war, came from the Casas Grandes (great houses) district, Chihuahua, Mexico. The excellence of the ceramic re- mains, the institution states, is one of the points of greatest interest in the collection. The pottery is said “not to have been excelled, either in beauty of form and finish or in the exquisiteness of its painted decerations, by the pre- historic peoples of any other section of the western hemisphere.” Most of the specimens were believed to have been obtained from burial places beneata the floors of prehistoric dwellings and have been classed as mortuary offerings.
