In this age of war and strife
those who attempt to maintain
some concern for humanity can do
little except through established
agencies, organized to dispense help
where it is needed. Perhaps no
organizations of the postwar world
has better represented the hopes of
a troubled world than UNICEF,
now involved in bringing some relief
to the starving natives of Biafra.
Certainly such an endeavor merits
the support of the American
people, among them the thousands
fortunate enough to be associated
with the University of Virginia.
Perhaps that minority willing and
able to help can do little enough. If
that minority does nothing, then
the prospects of betterment are
negligible indeed.
