London, Nov. 25.-The American

cred it their duty to bring food from

unfounded.
THE following cities through their
representatives have made repeated
appeals to the German representatives

They were refused.
Last Friday two town councillors
OF Antwerp came to u headquarters
in Rotterdam and stated they had
been released by the German authori-
ties under bond of five million francs

destitute of Antwerp and upon their
urgent representation we sent $40
tons Of supplies to Antwerp.

food in Germany and import it into

salt alone, of which there is an album
dant supply in Germany. the privilege
of importation was refused and we
have had to send salt from the British
Isles.
These are only a few of the in
stances which make it impossible for
ls to believe any such statement was
authorized by a responsible German
official. The first and most natural in
quiry we made when we were asked
to undertake the work of relief was:
Why do the Germans not supply the
civil population with food?' and 1t was
not until we were absolutely satisfied

many were taken, for by that time he
was only conscious by spells. For
some reason the car door was left
open, and cooling breezes came in.
Tears came in the little mans eyes
as he spoke of this. Then the door
slammed shut again. The air became
insufferably fetid. 1t seemed almost
tangible. He felt himself struggling
for breath. He tore off his clothes in
the effort to get cool.

with great, frightened eyes. "I put my
hand on the other man in the car
there in the darkness-and he was

alone with him."
Jean knows no more, until he
found himself in the bed at the SIS
tiers hospital at Calais. AS we rose to
go he began to stare again at that
German in the next bed-to stare as
though he could never get enough of
staring. The Germans head swung
to and fro. He muttered in his fever

AWAITING AMBULANCE
MAN LIES SERIOUSLY
HURT NEARLY AN HOUR
Need of Better Facilities Strikingly
Shown When Foreman
Is Crushed

Additional reason for better ambu-
lance facilities in the city was given
this morning when William Knighton,
of New Cumberland, lay for half an
hour after he was seriously injured at
the Harrisburg pipe and pipe bending
works because the city patrol and am
bulance was out on another call.
Knighton slipped on the ice while
at work at the plant, where he is a
foreman. He rolled between two cars
and was crushed. He was seriously
hurt and a request for the ambulance
was sent at once to the police station.
1t had just left on a call to 1912 North
Third street, where a sick patient was
to be removed to the hospital.
Meanwhile Knighton was suffering
intensely as he lay waiting to be taken
to a physicians care. When nothing
was heard from the hospital an auto
mobile was secured by officers at the
manufacturing plant and the man was
sent to the hospital in this way.
So badly injured was Knighton that
no thorough examination could be
made of him by physicians at the hos
pital and the extent of his injuries is
not yet known. He is believed to be
seriously hurt internally and may die.
Knighton Is 33 years DID, lives in
New Cumberland and is married.
