More Danger of Famine,
Mayor Schmitz Declares

SAN FRANCISCO. May Famine
menaces many thousands in this city
unless additional help is forthcoming
Immediately.
Mayor Schmitz says that unless this
help is received the city is in danger
of becoming worse OF than IT was a
week ago. Seven hundred carloads of
food and supplies have been received
and distributed since April Is. and the
railway officials say they have only
los more cars on the way.
IF this Information is correct" said
Mayor Schmitz, I'VE will soon be in a
bad way. 1t is fost unfortunate that
bad way. 1t is most unfortunate that
we were amply supplied with money
and food. for this is not the case. We
lack both money and supplies and must
have them at once We do not know
how much money we are certain to
get and are handicapped IN ordering
supplies.
MIR. Phelan has been informed that
part of the money that has been sub
scribed by Individuals and companies
in the East is being diShursed through
private agents here. While il is true
that contributions Of money will be
more to the purpose than contributions
OF supplies / want it understood that
where cash Is not available anything
will be most gratefully received"
Basing his calculation on reports re-
ceived within the last twenty-four
hours, General Greedy today said that
with the cntire available food supply,
including shipments on hanG and those
on the way, there would be sufficient
supply of food for twenty-one DAYS
General Greedy announced that in re-
spOnSe TO the request from Mayor
Mott. of Oakland. the distribution of

day.
