frequent statements- to the effect that

To promote a moee general under-

the Commission of Conservation car-
ried out a thorough survey et the
whole situation, And, in 1913, palish -

compiled by W. 3. Dick. Mr. Dick
made a very exhaustive study, cover-

(2) Cheap power problem in . the

Armistice week in November, The
Fund will be known as "The British,
Empire War Relief Fend."
. ,
To Make ICtiown the Need.
The Canadian Red' Cross Society
accepted the task of making this ap-
peal known throughout Canada only
in View' of the relentless circuni-
stanceS and the inunane desire to
help to alleviate the terrible suffering
of a large number of peoples. The
reasons are numerous and cm:-
Delhi:lg. Largepopulations are suf-
fering from distress and disease. Mil-
lions of innocent children are among
them. Even in time of peace great
numbers of their people lived, close
to the bread line, The war 'drained
thorn of all 'theirs surplus resources.
Through the years of strife they
were denied all but the herein neces-
sities, and their condition now is
pitiful indeed. History has repeated
itielf. The diseases which took such
earful toil. of human life after the
.Thirty Years' War, the Seven Years'
War (1757-65), and the Napoleonic
Wars are again widespread, and now
there are millions of people in
Galicia, Poland, Jugo-Slavia and Ron -
mania who, in addition to being povs
erty stricken, are in the direst misery
and despair on acconht of disease.
In some twelve countries, most of
which were either our Allies or
friendly to the Allied cause, modern
civilization is faced with the inevit-
able. consequences of, a great war
itleinroceugh partial famine and pestl-
A Previous Epidemic,
That the epidemic is now one oi
alarming pro)ortions and terrible 10

lowing quotation from "The Times":
"At present the worst results 0,1

a standstill, and civic life is crippled.
The whole community is ,faced with
starvation, whilst the ebsence ot
clothing, and drugs males it impos-
sible for the authorities to make any
headway against the eeldemie. Here
we have al country into which the
idea ot,..modern sanitation has never
penetrs.ted; for the raost part there
Is no water supply in the smaller
towns and villages save wells, whilst
the work of sewers is done by open
gullies running through the streets.
There are no doctors, no nurses, and
ne beds, and the miserable typhus-
..strieken patients lie unattended on
the bare floor. Throughout the rural
districts whele families exist in
miserable one -roomed huts, their
diet coesisting of starvation rations
of potatoes and beet, both bread and
zneat• being luxuries rarely seen. In
almost every" hut there are several
eases of typhus and in many instances
whole-temilies are stricken with the
disease, and are perforce left to die
unattended."
Many CountrIes Are Suffering.
What Is said of Galicia is true of
other countries' 01 Europe, such as
Esthonia, Lithuaiala, Lativia, huge
territories of the Ukraine, Soviet Rus-
sia, Tugo-Slayia and Czecho-Slovaltra.
Nor. Is typhus the only affliction.
Tuberculosis, smallpox, dysentery and
relapsing fever are also ravaging
large areas. .
Lack of Medical AM:.
these terrible conditions have keen
called to the attention at the people
of the British Empire In a statement
by the Right -Hon. Arthur J. Balfour,
whp, speaking for tbe Council of the
League of Nations, says:
"Men, worneirand children are dy-
ing by thousands,
and over vast and
civilized areas there are neither
medical appliences nor medical skill ,
sufficient to cope with the horrors by
sehleh we are faced. Governments"'
haVe in certain cases done all in their
,power to bring relief, but there re-
mains a yak field for charitable
enterprise which can be dealt. with
only by voluntary effort.'
Eleven Million OrphAns.
Dr. Liyingstone rename chairman
of the Central Committee of the
American Red cross, who has just re-
tttrned from, Europe, etatee that
there are 11,000,000 fatherless chil-
dren in Europe who face the next few
years-ieithout hope of adequate care

Yor Suffering Children.
•
No stronger call could be made to
humanity than that of suffering chil-
dren, and en their behalf particularly
the Canadian Red Cross will appeal
tnroughout Canada during Armistice
week. Each provincial division of the
Red Crops will have charge of the
arrangements in ite own province,
and all Red Cross workout Should put
themselves into touch immediately
with their, local branch or 'with the
Headquarters of the Provincial Divi-
sion if no local Ifrench is organized.

Societies Tells of Need of
klurope's Orphans.
"While we at home are intent on
Industrie.' expanaion and a place in
the sun, Europe in its war -weakened
condition is fighting . for - its very
existence," said Donald W. Brown;
direetor 01 the department of organi-
zation in the League of Red Cross
Societies of the, World, which has its
headquarters at Geneva, Switzerland.
He visited Torentoeto learn the peace
program of the Canadian Red Cross
Society and to establith Moser contact
between it and the league.
MUlioris of War Orphans.
Having just arrived from Europe,
Mr. Broevn was able to give -the Cana-
dian Red Cross some first hand in-
fornuttion concerning -the people of,
Europe, He called attention particu-
larly to the condition of the children,
so many of who,n are now orphans.
While the exact number who have
lost one or both parents during the
war cannot be determined, the most
conservative estimate places tee num-
ber at over ten millions. This num-
ber seems quite consistent with the
heavy war casualties among so many
nations. .
- Dependent Upon Monty.
Tlie condition of these children is
in most cases very pitiable. Many of
them have no homes and they are
dependent upon whoever may 'be
charitable and kind enough to help
them. But there are few who are
able to give such help for the mass
of the people of Russia, Poland, parts
ot Roumania, Czecho-Sloyakia and
other countries are so poor that they
have not necessaries for themselves.
Consequently in the great area be-
tween the Baltic, the Black and the
Adriatic Seas, there are millions of
children who face the next 1 ew years,
and paeticuleyly the coming winter,
without hope of proper (Are unless
outside assistance Is given them.
Disease Prevalent.
In addition to the unhappy con-
dition of the children the adult polite.
lations are in the direst of misery on
account of disease. Suffering has been
accentuated by lack of food and
clothing, nursing and medical atten-
tion, and. tuberculosis, smallpox,
tannins and dysentery are continuing
unchecked.
Typhus which has so often proved
a scpurge and menace to the human
race is again prevalent, and unless
checked will most likely extend ite
ra,vagee to an ,eiarming degree,
British Empire Appeal.
For these urgentreasons, Mr,
Brown said, the League of Red Cross
Societiee has made an earneet appeal
to the people of the Beitish Empire
and he wee glad to hear that the
cause of the suffering ohildren was
being taken is Canada. He had
learired that an appeal on behalf of
the British Empire Fund would be
made; in Canada by the Canadian Red
Crean during Armiatice week and
wished for it every success.
Typhus go Canada.
• In its earlier days Canada suffered
from the ravages of a disease than
known as "spotted fever" but now
known generally by tbe name of
typhus. It is re disease that spreads
rapidly and is very destructive of
human. life. In the years 1846-47
It Was brollglit to eCaeade, by

7 The mother must have two or

teen years of age livieg with her, and
must show that she cannot mire prop--
erly for them without the assistance
of an allowance under the Act. Where
a mother has two or more children,
even if they are now being eared for
in institutional homes, 'it ie quite'
legitimate for her to make applica-
ion for tin allowance in order that she
may make a home for them.
The Mothers' Allowance Act is ad-
ministered for theProviece by a
Commission with offices located at 004
Jarvis Street, Toronto. Every city,
separated town and eel:111V, however,
will soon have a local board, end ap-
.plication for an allowance should be
made in the first instance to this
board. Where there is no local board
in the distric, applications may be
sent directly to the Provincial Com-
mission, Toronto.
The members Of. the Commission do
not wish applicants to be considered
as applying for charity; rather, the
mother, when in receipt of an allow-
ance ,is to be regarded as an em-
ployee of the Ontario Government re-
ceiving remuneration for seevices
rendered in the proper care of her
chil dee n.
It is the duty therefore,. of the
Commissipn -and of the local boards
to investigate carefully the. fitness of
the applicant for her position.
Certificates of marriage and the
birth certificates of the children may
be required for examination and
where the mother is a widow -the
death certificate of her husband. ,
The mother as an employee of the
Government, must net on/y satiefy
the Commission of ber fitness to re -
an allowance at the time of her
application, but she must satisfy
them that she is Refilling the trust
which .is belng placed in her, and co-
operation with the official visitors of
the Commission and local boarcle is
necessary toward this- end. Satis-
factory meets of the health and gen-
eral welfare of the children must be
received ;1: the allowance is to be eon-
t'n u ed, .
The AI dees' not state any fixed
sent or eehedule according to which
the payment of allowances will be
made. The Commission, howeyer,
will fix the maximum and minienum
allowances which will be granted, and

consideration within these limits. Al-

nothing to do but get well.
