In these words King Albert of the
Relgians replied to a message Of good
wishes sent to him by the American
commission for relief in Belgium

tinues, earnestly eongratulates your

That the famine In Belgium Is no
respector of persons was wildly
brought home by letter received to-
day by the American commission from
Henry w. Dlederich, the United
states consul general at Antwerp, who
appeals for food for his family, for
his consular staff and for himself
Mr. Diederich writes:
About ten days ago Jarvis Bell OF
New York, while on his way to Brus-
sells. kindly informed me that II my
family and myself needed anything TO
let him or the relief committee know
and that they would provide as best
they could
AT the time the offer was made ]
did not think II would be necessary to
make use OF il. but We have been sud-
denly made to realize that Antwerp is
not victualized as common report has
it. as few days ago all the bakers In
the city declared they were. no longer
able 10 supply bread for lack of flour.
"For the time heing they again
have started their work. but the OUT
look for a steady supply Of bread this
winter Is very gloomy. In view Of this
condition / would request the Ameri-
can relief committee to let me have
at the earliest opportunity some flour
for myself and the families Of the
consular staff"
Further relief went To the Rel
gian people today with the sailing Of
the steamer Neches, carrying 5000
tons of food supplies. The entire
cargo with the exception of a few
small donations was purchased by the
Rockefeller foundation and Is valued
at about 100000. The bulk OF the
shipment consists of flour. Consign-
ments of beans. peas. coffee and sailed
meats also were on board.
II was announced today by the COM
mission for relief in Belgium that an
arrangement had been completed
through the postoffice department
whereby it would soon be possible for
any person in the United States who
desires to help the Belgians BY contrl-
buttons Of packages of food, to go TO
the nearest postoffice and send his
donation in at the expense of the conrs
mission.
Postmaster General Burleson, the
commission stated. had written that
there was no objection to the COM
missions sending to each postmaster
IN the United States for exhibition In
the lobby of his office a copy Of the
notice telling of the new arrangeme II.

Around the festival cluster many

that when the temple was re-dcdldcat-
