To the Musicians of America
C| Generous and fine as your response has been to the cry of the starving musicians of Germany and Austria, their need is still great—-terrible and great. fj The same mail that brings us pathetic and touching letters of thanksgiving from those whom your gifts have saved from starvation, brings us from our committee abroad heartrending reports of musicians in desperate privation, for whose relief there are no funds. t| Their suffering is ours! They and we alike are priests at the altar of Eternal Truth and Beauty. •I A dollar will buy you a few trifling indulgences, or may save the life of a fellow artist. Obey your heart and send your life-saving dollar now.
