Frederick G. Johnson, of the American Red Cross Commission to Poland. Mr, Johnson says: “The immediate future of Poland’s starving population depends directly on the interest and help of oulside nations until national conditions can be improved materially, Poland is do ing ail thai she can for her people, hut her present resources do not begin lo meet the need. Until the new na fion gets on her feet, it is the solemn obligation of American relief organ izations to keep up their splendid ef¬ forts without relaxation “I have visited desolate communi¬ ties in the Department of the East, that vast strength of barren country lying east of Hie River Bug, whose people were literally saved from ex I ini-lion through tlie vigorous minis¬ tration of these relief .organizations. The amount of humanitarian good that American effort and American money can do in Poland is limited | only by Hie exleni of American gen orosity. There seems no liihit to the field to tic covered. “in Novogrodek, for instance, which was perhaps harder hit by famine and want than any olher single community i in the Department of the East Hie Combined efforts of Hie American i Re¬ lief Administration, Hie American Red Cross and file American Jewish Re I lief agencies resulted hot only in the distribution of a vast amount of purely * ; emergency relief, in the form of food I and clothing, but also in the estab¬ i lishment of a number of permanent institutions that were vitally needed “Before the Americans got to Xovo grodek the people of that town and the surrounding, country were in a condition pitiable beyond description.' They were dying of hunger and dis¬ ease. Particularly sad was the plight of the little children and the old peo - pie without families. Local effort brought little result in getting homes of even the crudest sort established, for the inhabitants Had absolutely nothing to work with. ■ tions of health officers.
