This amount seemingly large, is really small in comparison {o the sufferings of the destitute inhabitants of war-torn Voland. The sufferings are to be alleviated by the money collected in this campaign. The greatest crime of the elghteenth century we mmitted when Ger- many, Austria and Russia partitioned and claimed a part each of the then helpless Poland. America, fighting for liberty and justice to oppressed peoples, has not overlecoked the the Poles in their desire to bring Po- land into its former glory and great- ness and to reinstate it among the reat nations of the world. Just as Poland, when in the height of its greatness, hearkened to the call of Austria in 1681 to . the empire indirectly and directly whole of thre ed Christendom, when the Turk ng and enslaving the Christian peoples of Southeastern (I11) Sobiesky Poland sent an army and the ravages of the Turk undor walls of Vienna-—so today, America backed by the unexampled lovalty of its people has put a stop to the ravages of the Hun and liber- ated nations long smarting under the voke of their oppressor: Americs, through its great Presi- dent Woodrow Wilson, has given as- surance that no peace will be con- cluded until Poland will be given its idependence. Having this moral sup- port of the greatest republic, the Poles of America are desirous of doing everything in their power to help the country of their forefathers. They have made sacrifices and many of them. They are willing to make many more. In this latest campaign the quota being $48,000, it will be rather dif- ficult to realize this amount without the help of our friends Knowing the sacrifices that the people of New Bri- tain have been asked to make during this war, we are very reluctant to ask their aid, yet having in mind the needs of devasted Poland and the its inhabitants, we canot refraih from appealing to their generous spirit and humane feeling. We ask our friends to give to a worthy cause. | The public asked to give to a fund which will be used for feeding the starving mothers and children of Poland. They need clothing; they ought to have homes wherein to r their weary heads. This fund will provide for their needs. The Polish Civic Council with Rev. Lucyan Bojnowsski as the president is the only authorized agent of the Na- tional Polish Department, in New | Britain. All donations are to be sent | to Rev. Lucyan Bojnowski.
