Gen. Hsiung Hsi-Ling Makes Substantial Gift General Hsiung Hsi-ling, president of the Chinese Joint Charitable Association, has made a substantial donation to the funds of the Russian Emigrants' Committee and Relief Association, having through Mrs. B. N. Iovloff forwarded the sum of $1,000, which has been acknowledged by Mr. Eh. Metzler.
At present it is stated that there are 2,670 Russians in Shanghai in need of assistance. Not all of them are destitute, but need assistance.
Thus 1,000 are being fed by the Caisse des Oeuvres, 168 are being housed by the Russian Club. Over 100 are homeless, and the question is being considered of the possibility of building barracks for them, together with dining halls and it is towards this object that the $1,000 given by Gen. Hsiung Hsi-ling will be devoted.
