Three and a half million children are facing starvation in Central Europe.
Ten dollars contributed through the European Relief Council will save the life of one child.
I suggest to my fellow-countrymen that the circles around their Christmas trees will be incomplete unless, mingled with their own expectant children, they shall visualize some of the waifs of Central Europe.
A court shall not, by a single sentence which does not include dishonorable discharge, adjudge against a soldier:
Dishonorable discharge, in itself a severe punishment, should be adjudged and approved only when it is clear that the accused should be separated from the service.
