From The Indianapolis News, Tuesday, February 15: The Indiana committee of the Commission for Belgium Relief has been consolidated with the Michigan committee in Detroit. Indiana committee chairman Henry Lane Wilson said Hoosiers have been generous to appeals for help for Belgium. Since the initial appeals, the people of Indiana have contributed through the Belgium relief commission, in cash, food and clothing, a total of $24,972.81 (2014: $535,213.45); another $10,000 (2014: $214,318.47) has been contributed through other channels. This sum has clothed either 12,000 adults or 24,000 children, and fed for one week 35,000 children or 17,500 adults for the same period. The Indiana committee office closing should not infer that the need for aid in Belgium has ceased; the suffering is just as great today and the appeals or just as earnest as they have ever been.
