THE CHURCH ARMY SAVE THE CHILDREN' FUND.

To tile Editor. Sir,—We commenced this appeal on July 21 for rhe Church Army, to try and raise funds to save some of the three and a lialf millions of children that Mr Hoor?r says will die unless milk is provided, and this can only be by private charities. A late London paper says that in some parts of Russia there are no children alive under seven years of age. Already it seems that Mr Hoover’s fears are only too well founded, By all means let us try and save some.
