The entire population of Cape May County — 86,000 — represents but one area of Ethiopia where starvation stalks hundreds of thousands cf refugees. Critical drought and famine aggravated by continued border fighting between Ethiopian and Somali forces kill both young and old by starving them to death. Earlier this year CROP events in Cape May County, including a "fast", marathon run. and a CROP walk raised

$3,000 toward CROP programs. $317 came back into Cape May County to be used for hunger here. Financial gifts to CROP, a church Vflated agency, and other organizations spearheading drives to feed the starving are providing relief in this massive effort. The Herald & Lantern will be glad to supply readers with additional organizations that are helping feed starving people distant from Cape May County.
