URGES RELIEF
FUNDS FOR THE
Mayor J. G. Watts has received a
etter from Gov. J. F. A. Strong, in
vhich the latter urges that Anchor
ige, as well as other Alaskan towns
ihould take a more active part in the
■elief of lielgian sufferers, a move
nent which is nation-wide, but which
hus far, has passed unnoticed in the
lorth.
Governor Strong suggests that a
oca! committee be named to manage
i campaign to raise funds, which can
>e forwarded direct to the head of
ices of the lielgian Relief committee.
Mayor Watts this morning an
lounced that he will turn the mat
er over to the local Chamber of Com
nerce for action, but at the same
ime will do all in his power to as
list the movement.
The letter from the governor fol
ows:
Juneau, April 27, 1917.
(. G. Watts, Mayor,
Anchorage, Alaska.
Wy dear Mr. Mayor:
1 have been requested by the di
•ectors of the Rocky Mountain Club-1
Hoover Fund for Relief in Belgium
o use my efforts as far as possible in
ieeuring subscriptions for the relief
if the stricken people of Belgium. Mr.
Herbert C. Hoover, as you know, has
leen in charge of this fund ever since
.914 and he advises that the sum
fuaranteed for the relief of Belgium
ailed to meet the requirements by one
nillion dollars a month for which he
s believed can be raised in the Unit
ed States, and now Alaska is urged to
contribute her share.
Hitherto we, the "most prosperous;
jeople in the world, have fallen far
;hort of the example set by other
ountries, even those staggering tin
ier the burden of such a war. Amer
en has given no dollars and eight
ents per capita against no dollars
ind 18 cents in Canada, $2.94 in New
Zealand and $<>.25 in Tasmania. Acc
ording to Mr. Hoover, a million 1 it
le Belgian children are weak, tuber
ular and under-nourished, and the
nillion dolars a month for which he
(leads will be applied toward supply
ng one supplementary nourishing
neal a day for these children.
The Rocky Mountain club, as you
nay know, is a New York club com
josed mainly of and for western mi li
ng men and others who may be vis
ting New York. I may add that
lohn Hays Hammond, the eminent
tocky Mountain club, which has a
lumber of members in Alaska, I ray
;elf being- an honorary vice-president,
dr. Hoover was a prominent member
if this club, and the club, therefore,
lelieved it its duty to assist him in
he noble work of increasing the
Vmerican contributions for Belgian
■elief, as it was believed that it is
jeculiarly the task of the mining pro
’ession—a task, by the way, initiated
ind hitherto largely administered by
nining engineers, and for this reason
is well as because no industry has
wofited more by the war than mining,
t is urged that it is incumbent on
he mining profession and the mining
sections of the territory to give whole
learted support to this cause as far
is may be, and hence the obligation is
lot confined to the recipients of large j
salaries but is equally binding on!
vage-eamers, each according to his i
ibilit.v to pay.
I have, therefore, to urgently re
quest that you organize in your eom
nunity a local committee which will
mdeavor to collect contributions large
ind small from all who can be made i
:o feel the force of the appeal. One i
lollar will feed one child for a month. ,
f you will consent to and endeavor to {
issist in this work, I shall be pleased ,
;o act as treasurer of the fund and
will make prompt transmittal of any
sum that may be received, to the
Rocky Mountain Club-Hoover Belgian
Relief fund, New York, giving due ac
(nowledgment of the sum so trans
nitted. I am endeavoring to give
some little time to this matter, not
withstanding my many duties which
press upon me, especially just at this
time.
I am also enclosing herewith a num
ber of receipts for your use in trans
mitting money to me; or, if time
would be saved, may 1 suggest that
you transmit your own contributions
direct to the following address:
Wm. 15. Thompson, Treasurer,
Rocky Mountain Club-Hoover Fund
For Relief in 15elgium,
65 West 44th Street,
New York City.
On second thought, i believe this
would be the better method; that is,
make your contributions direct, as
noted above.
I shall greatly appreciate anything
that you may be able to do in this
work.
I am, Cordially yours,
J. F. A. STRONG. I
