Japan declined, stating that she had already made necessary provision. China accepted, with a gratitule that reflects her terrible need. China is suffering. The extent and/severity of that E.iift'orWgWfeMS selaoTo, lr erver.^round equal in the history of nations. The shelling and bombing of cities, bringing terror, death, disablement and destruction, not alone to soldiers, but to- countless women and little children helplessly caught in the malestrom of war, have created distress of unparalled proportions. At the expressed wish of Canadian citizens in many parts of the Dominion, the Red Cross and the Religious Bodies of Canada, in affiliation, are creating a Fund, through which our people may express their sympathy in tangible form. No brief is needed for this appeal. Day by day, press and radio are laying the stark facts of this great tragedy before us. The need for kindly aS'Sitance will never be greater. In the face of suffering such as theirs, our sympathy and help can know no barriers of race or creed. We feel confident that Canada will meet this heed promptly with generous hand and heart.
