ENGLANDS SECRETARY BE
WAR DRIVES FORD
When Winston Churchill, Eng
land’s Secretary of War. became in
terested in the British ‘ Campaign
for Economy’’, he endorsed it with |
true sincerity, he decided his Rolls
Royce automobile must be "replaced
by a smaller and more economical car. 1
So he cast his eye about in search of
one that would be low in purchase
price and low in upkeep. The makes
of cars bearing those virtues are few.
Lord Churchill found just one: he
bought it —A Ford.

Economic Ruin and Epidemics
11 Have Fallen to Their Lot

BULGARIA OUTLOOK BETTER
Investigatar Urges Shipments of Food
and Orothing to Roumania— Fund
of $35,000,000 Being Sought
in United States.
New York. —Reports of the condi
tion of .Tews in the Balkan countries, '
ns made to the American Jewish Re
lief committee by its Investigators
abroad show that economic ruin, epi
demics of typhus, tuberculosis, and ;
. other diseases have fallen to the lot of
Balkan Jews to an extent equal to that
suffered by their co-religionists in
other war-torn countries, but that po
litical and religious repressive meas
ures have been lacking.
The first detailed account of the sit
uation in Serbia in many months is
from Dr. Isaac Alcalay, chief rabbi of
Serbia, with headquarters in Bel
grade. He said Belgrade was still
without regular communication with
the provinces, because the railroads
and bridges destroyed by the Austrians ■
have not been restored.
“During the war,” he wrote, “Jews
in Belgrade suffered proportionately
more than the rest of the population. ■
Most of their habitations were exposed
to gunfire throughout the 15 months
■ that the city was under bombardment.
Almost all homes are destroyed. The
Jewish population of the city, formerly
8,000, now numbers no more than 4,500.
The number is being increased daily
by returning refugees. Many men are
still with the colors.
Have Suffered Terribly.
“Economically, the Serbian Jews
have suffered terribly. Because of
the uncertain political situation, all i
regular commerce is impossible, and it
if difficult for Jewish citizens to im- ;
prove their condition. This has de
prived institutions of financial aid'
from the native population. Jewish
schools are totally destroyed and the
children cannot be educated.
“Such a situation is unfortunate, for
the war has brought us new duties.
The Jews of old Serbia took a very
active part in the Balkan wars and
In the world war. The years of fight
ing have deprived more than 400 fam
ilies of their bread winners. These 1
people have to be helped.
In Bulgaria, according to a report
from Miss Hetty Goldman of this city,
the condition of the Jews is some
what better than in Serbia. Poverty
is not so widespread, nor are health
conditions so bad.
The families of Jewish residents re
ceive allotments ranging from 45 to 70
levas a month, according to the size
of the family. Recently the maximum
was raised to 90 levas to meet the
rising cost of living. The pensions
will be continued for widows and or
phans.
“Bulgarian Jews are able to meet
the needs of their own poor, but they
have recently been confronted with
a new responsibility. Roumanian Jews
are seeking refuge in Bulgaria, and ■
their Bulgarian co-religionists are at a ■
loss to know what to do with them. 1
There is no work, even for skilled ar
tisans.
“A- soup kitchen is being run for
these people of Sophia, but many are j
desperate. An allotment from our
American Jewish relief fund must be
i wade to care for them.”
In Roumania there is need of cloth
ing and staple foods. It was Miss
Goldman .who made the investigation
’ in this country also.
Clothing Greatest Need.
“The people needed clothing above
everything else,” her report reads.
“Almost everybody is shabby, and a
large percentage of the poor are prac
ttcally without clothing. I went into
many homes where the inmates had on
mere rags or were huddled in torn
blankets of sacking.
“The second greatest need is for
staple foods, such as dry beans, peas,
rice, vegetables, fats and the like.
Such Supplies as are to be had are sold
at exorbitant prices. American Jew
ish relief committees should send
clothing and food for about 35,000 per
sons. Only if this is done will they
have proteclion against the hardships
of next winter.
“I was painfully impressed by the
number of sick in Roumania. In Bu
charest. out of a Jewish population of
45.000 there was an average of eight
funerals a day last winter. A large
percentage of typhus cases in Bucha
rest and Jassy have been among Jews.
The lack of clothing, especially of
clean underwear, has been a contrib
uting cause. The inability to obtain
fuel made families huddle in their,
rooms. Some did not go outside their
homes practically all winter.”
Machinery for the effective distribu
tion of relief in the Balkan countries
' is in operation. More than $200,000
worth of supplies, including several
1 tons of kosher meat, was sent from ।
New York late in July to Constanza, {
। Roumania. The American Jewish re- I
lief committee, under the chairman- I
ship of Louis Marshall, plans to con-|
tinue regular shipments of this kind .
I to the Balkans and to I'oland, Galicia,
Czecho-Slovakla. and the other coun
tries.
For this purpose a fund of $35,000,-
000 is being sought in the United I
States this year.
