FAMINE FUND WORK'
AT HALF-WAY MARK
Thomas W. L.amont, Chairman,
Tells of Relief Administered
and Task to Be Completed.
The American Committee for China
Famine Fund, according to a state
ment Issued by Thomas W. Lamont,
chairman, lias reached the second
stage of its mission of mercy of send
ing funds from America to feed the
millions of starving famine victims In
the far eastern republic. At the low
est estimate, the statement says, just
ns much more is needed to carry “the
last 5,000,000” through to the June
harvest as has already been sent.
Mr. Lamont points out that quick
response by America to appeals made
by President Harding and his prede
cessor, President Wilson, has resulted
In such prompt distribution of relief
that the threatened magnitude of the
famine has been checked to a marked
extent. A continuation of the efforts
so far made, it Is declared, will place
the famine relief for China among
America’s most effective philanthro
pies.
The Waiting Millions
There remain, however, the state
ment shows, a “last 5,000,000” to be
saved, and these people can be saved
only by continuous and voluminous re
lief resulting from American subscrip
tions.
The statement, In part, follows:
“Quick response to the appeal of the
American Committee for China Fam
ine Fund gives us at the half-way
point in our work the cheering assur
ance that the subscriptions from gen
erous America already have served a
great humanitarian purpose, Inasmuch
ns relief already administered has held
the famine In bounds and made it pos
sible for America to save a multitude
of human beings.
“Whereas early estimates made it
seem that millions must perish, we
now are advised that Instead of the
15,000,000 who, It was originally fear
ed, were doomed to death from hunger,
relief at present In sight from all
sources, American, Chinese and for
eign, is sufficient to provide scanty ra
tions until the June harvest for all ex
cept 5,000,000 people. These Mast
5,000,000’ are destitute, according to
our latest reports from the American
Advisory Committee In Peking and are
dependent for existence upon new
help coming from outside sources, und
this means America.
From All the People
"It Is the earnest hope of the Com
mittee that the number of contribu
tions made as well as the aggregate
will be such as to'make our humanita
rian gift, In a real sense, a gift of the
American people as a whole.
“One way to make Individual effort
and generosity contribute toward sav
ing China’s starving population is for
every one responsive to China’s
need, in effect, to ‘pick a pal
In China for a day.’ The thought
behind this special appeal In connec
tion with the latter part of our effort
will be for American men, women and
children to choose, figuratively, a Chi
nese famine victim as a friend for a
day and to send what they spend one
day on themselves or an American
friend to the China Famine Fund ei
ther through local committees, banks
or churches or direct to Vernon Mtin
roe, treasurer, Bible House, New York
Cltv.
Tanlac now has the largest sale of
any medicine in the world. There is
a reason —G. W. DeLaPerriere & Sons.
THE WINDER NEWS
Southern Baptists Wage Vigorous Warfare
Against Tuberculosis In This Section ,
In one of the most extenstvo fights
that has ever been made by any re
ligious body in America for the eradi
cation of disease. Southern Baptist*,
through their Home Mission Board,
have undertaken the task of combat
ing tuberculosis In the 18 states com
prising the territory of the Southern
Baptist Convention. The first step In
this direction waa the recent estab
lishment on a tract of 143 acres at El
Paso, Texas, of the. Southern Bap
tist Sanatorium, where $500,000 from
the 75 Million Campaign has been in
vested and where $500,000 more will
be placed by the end of the Campaign
period. The Institution is located at
an altitude of 4,500 feet on the side of
Mt. FYanklln and commands an excel
lent view of the mountains of New
Mexico, Western Texas and Old
Mexico, whose border Is only six miles
distant. Dr. H. F. Vermillion is super
intendent.
Included in this plant at present are
the administration building, the newly
completed women’s infirmary and
■ten’s infirmary, a heating and re
frigerating plant and the superintend
ent’s quarters. Provided for in the
building plans for the future are a
medical and educational building,
nurses’ home, children’s building,
dormitories for convalescent patients,
an occupational and vocational therapy
building, chapel, laundry and minor
atructures.
ISO People Dl Dally.
Indicating the need of additional ef
fort looking to the elimination of tu
berculosis in the South, reliable fig
ures gathered by the public health
agencies of the South and the Nation
show that there are 150 deaths daily
from tuberculosis in the 18 states
comprising the territory of the South
ern Baptist Convention, making the
annual death toll of the white plague
in this section of the country alone

67,782. The death rate from tuber
culosis is 14.2% higher in the South
than in the Nation as a whole. One
reason for the exceedingly high death
rate in the South is the great preva
lence of the plague among the negroes
who are especially susceptible to tuber
culosis, the death rate among them
being three and one-half times that
among the whites. But inasmuch as
the negroes will doubtless continue to
be intimately associated with the
whites in domestic and other work in
the future, the whites will never be
safe from Infection until the negroes,
as well as the whites, have been freed
from the plague.
It has been estimated that the to
tal economic loss from the ravages
of tuberculosis in the South is $175,-
000,000 a year, and in projecting their
warfare against the plague the Bap
tists hope to greatly reduce this loss,
as well as to save the life and promote
the health and general efficiency of
the whole people.

tracted tuberculosis, the sanatorium la
carrying on an educational work that
seeks to inform the public at large
through the printed page, aa to the
danger of tuberculosis, how it can be
avoided and how, once It i con
tracted, its progress can be arreated
through proper sanitary measure* at
home. Other phases of the educa
tional program include the training
of workers Inside the sanatorium and
occupational and vocational work for
patients. The extension department
Is widely disseminating literature on
how to combat tuberculosis. An en
dowment fund that is being created
for the Institution will make possible
a much larger circulation of literature
and will also enable the Institution t
take care of indigent patients.
The sanatorium is at present seek
ing to devise special plans whereby
It can serve the negroes of the South
in combating tuberculosis. It is felt
that the negroes’ inability to help
themselves In the matter entities theta
to this consldeartlon and that thU
assistance should be given, further
more, as a means of self-protection on
the part of the whites.
Other Phase* ef Baptist Work.
In addition to the Tuberculosis
Sanatorium, Southern Baptists have a
string of seventeen regular hospital*
In operation and seven other* under
course of construction. This hospital
property Is valued at approximately
$7,000,000 and these institutions last
year treated 46,000 patients many of
them being charity cases. Southern Bap
tists also operate 19 orphanages la
which approximately 5,000 orphan boy*
and girls are cared for, educated and
trained for Christian clUxeushla.
