COMMISSION READY
TO SHIP PROVISIONS
TO BELGIAN POINTS
Offices Opened i'm New York
City-NO COnflictiOn With
the Committees Already
Constituted in America

New York, November lo.-The American
commission for relief In Belgium. formed
by Ambassador Walter Hines Page In
London. has opened Offices and hired dock
space In New York. The commission an
nounced tonight IL was ready to ship pro-
visions In any quantity to Belgium.
This commission Is attending strictly TO
transportation and does not conflict with
| relief committees already constituted in
| America. II has funds to handle all shin.
| ments and has made diplomatic arranse-
ments to have food sent through exped-
tlously and without interference.
Lindon w. Bates. American vice chair
man Of the commission said today:
In spite OF efforts OF Belgian relief
| committees, the Rockefeller foundation
and other organizations. Belgium cannot
be fed at the present pace. American
members of the commission declare we
must send at least half million tons Of
food this winter.
Needs Food Most
What Belgium needs most of all in
food-any kind of food. so long as il wiz
stand ocean transportation. America Will
have to strain every effort this winter to
bring the Belgans through alive. Wheat.
-four. beans. peas and preserved meats
are especially needed. but perhaps above
all things the most pathetic need of Bel
guim is condensed milk. The cattle are
gone and children of II certain age can
not live without milk.
The American offices of the commits
sion are at II broadway. New York city,
and they will ship mostly from New
York. However. arrangements are being
made to ship from all the other ocean
ports on the Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf of
Mexico.
Plan Small Shipments
1.-The committee hopes to announce IN a
few days plan whereby any person wish
ing to send food in small quantities may
do so without further trouble than deIiv-
ering the goods at an express office. We
VIII then be able to send any and all
supplies from the point OF first shipment
clear to the committee In Belgium free
of cost to the donor. We already are do
ing that for the large shipments"
Women's organizations whose member
ship aggregate 5.90000Q, have enrolled In
