President. the department could not give any more. although this poor woman and an 8monthold baby had not had a bite to eat in 3 whole days. Think of having starving people right here in our own midst. I wish somebody would set up an organization to help the starving people of the United States of America. and give a little attention to the unfortunates here. the refugees in the United States. -After they have taken care of the refugees in the United � States who are clogging our highways and byways. seeking food and shelter and work. there will be plehty of time to send millions abroad to take care of the refugees there. So far as I am concerned. my sympathies begin with the American refugees. When they have been taken care of. I am perfectly willing to send wheat and pork and corn and cotton goods and everything else that is needful to the refugees abroad. but. I say. let us take care of such women and children as described by Mr. Wooten in Wilson.
