This present need of women and little children for relief from starvation and misery and the en- couragement of the noble effort of the heads of families to re-establish themselves as artisans and productive factors in the countries where they live, should be encouraged and aided, and merits the sympathetic interest of our citizens. "April 2 5to May 9 has been set aside as the time for the collection of these funds and therefore I, Al- fred E.

STRAUS, FAMOUS HUMANITARIAN, ENDS (Continued From Page One.) „Announces( Among the many achievements -of Mr. Straus' life, the one that he him- self considered the greatest, is, per- haps, the least mentioned in bio- graphical works. It came in 1912, when he was made chairman of a board of arbitration to settle the dif- ferences between railroads east of the Mississippi and locomotive engineers. With the entire eastern transporta- tion systems about to be tied up, Mr. Straus worked so diligently that all the points in dispute were settled to the satisfaction of both sides. As one of the leaders of the League to Enforce Peace, Mr. Straus was ac- tive internationally in trying to avoid and to end war. He went to Paris as one of its representatives and was there throughout the peace confer- ences. President Wilson held him in the highest esteem and gave him many delicate tasks. At one time Colonel House told Mr. Straus the League of Nations was on the rocks and asked him to see what he could do. "The League is off the rocks," he succintly told the colonel a few days later after persuading the French to give in on points concerning manufac- ture of munitions. On that day, in his diary he wrote: "I regard this day and its happenings as the golden chapter in the history of civilization." It was a sorrow to him that this coun- try never entered the league. the Removal of his REALESTATEOFFICES May 10 1 b tothe entire Third Floor of the STEPHENSONBUILDING Cass Avenue and West Grand Boulevard Williams, the great American expo- nent of religious freedom and though a Jew had named his son for this re- ligious leader.

It was, perhaps, this training that caused him, when a candidate for Governor of New York in 1912 on the Progressive ticket just formed by Theodore Roosevelt, to give this reply to a query as to whether he shouldn't have a campaign song in his fight against Sulzer and Hedges: "A campaign song?

"You will be your own Secretary of State and do as you see fit," the President told 111311EMeS Mr. Straus as his only instructions.
