LONDON, Nov 1.-THE American COM
mission which ls distributing relief to the
Belgian sufferers received a check to-day
for $4,000 900, which. it IL estimated, Will
be necessary for the transportation OF
foodstuffs to Belgium for three months.
This money was advanced or guaran-
teed by various Belgian relief commit
tees and prominent Bclgians and is re-
garded as convincing evidence that the
Belglans themselves wish to give all the
help they possibly can. At the same time
It emphasizes the fact that II is neces-
sary that $4,000, 900 or 100000 worth OF
foodstuffs must be obtained in the next
seven or eight months. II will require n
million dollars "A month to transport the
food to Belgium.
The American commission advises all
local associations and others in America
who are Interested in this relief TO apply
ali the funds they collect in the local
purchase Of foodstuas, as these supplies
can be more advantageously bought by
such local authorities. Furthermore, the
commission feels that generous Ameri-
cans who are unable to contribute money
should give something from their own
stores of food to such local organlza
tons.
! The commission Is Of opinion that every
American farmer, out of the abundanc,
! of his crop. and every American from
/ his stores can well afford a few bushels
! of grain What is needed are cereals
wheat -four, shelled corn, beans, peas
bacon and ham. as these are the onl!
commodities which will stand long ant
difficult transportation.

RED CROSS SOCIETY
To AID WOUNDED

Atlanta Ga, Aug. THE American
Red Cross Society has telegraphed TO
Governor slaton urging that Georgia
contribute freely to a general fund to
carry aid to the sick and wounded
soldiers on European battlefelds. 1t
is shown in the message that Europe
sent many thousands of dollars to the
American Red Cross to aid its work
during the war with Spain.
The appeal is made to the general
public, and all governors, mayors,
heads of boards of trade and other or
CARNATIONS are asked to receive funds
for the Red Cross work.
Several Atlanta trained nurses have
volunteered to join the Red Cross and
nurse the wounded without charg
and their services probably will be
accepted.
