My dear Doctor Allen:

Paul Moritz is going to China, a messenger of goodwill
from the college students of America to the college
students of China. If ever the young people of @ nation
needed help these Chinese students do, and if ever a
young man was qualified to give the needed help Paul is
the lad.

Paul hopes to attend the World Christian Youth Conference
to be held at Amsterdam in August and then go on across
Europe for a year in China under the auspices of the .
International Committee of the Y.M.C.A. This will cost
some hundreds of dollars for traveling expenses alone.

In view of his wonderful scholastic record, his presidency
of the Y.M.C.A, for the last two years, his all-round
leadership both on this campus and among the Christian |
young people of the nation, and because he is one of our
own boys who commands our strongest admiration and love,

I am writing to ask a few of my friends if they would be
willing to send me five dollars to help pay this wonderful
lad‘ts traveling expenses and enable him to give himself

to the needy young people of China for a year.

I know that you are tired of being asked for money, but
I honestly do not believe you could invest five dollars
in a better boy or a better cause. May I hear from you?

Sincerely yours,

(EF Mn
