AMERICANS TO FEED
STARVING BELGIANS
100000 Belgians Are on
Verge of Starvation.

London, Oct. %. After diplo-
matte negotiations lasting sever
al weeks, in which American
Ambassador Page acted as inter-
mediary between Belgium, Eng
land and Germany, an agreement
has been reached by which the
starving Belgians will be fed by
"a commission of Americans in
London and Brussels, headed by
Herbert C. Hoover of California,
who has acted as chairman of
the American Relief Committee
in London. 1t is estimated that
200, coo Belgians who still are in
Cheir own country are on the
verge Of starvation.
Early in the negotiations re-
garding means to relieve these
people, Germany declared her
willingness to assist but declined
to give guarantees requested by
the British until England lifted
the embargo on foodStuffS.
PAGES PROPOSAL ACCEPTED.
The situation was becoming
desperate when Ambassador
Page proposed that Mr.. Hoover
undertake the work. Germany
Immediately acceded to this plan,
saying she would extend every
aid possible to such a commission
and England promptly raised re-
strictionS on food exports.
More than 100000 persons al
ready are being assisted through
bread lines. According to the
committees reports, there are
more than 100000 of these per.
sons in Brussels alone, The sup
ply of food for these bread sta
tons, it is estimated, will not
last more than a week longer. 1t
is expected the number of per-
sons requiring relief will increase
ito a million within a month.
Specially chartered steamships
soon will start for Holland with
their cargoes consigned to officers
of the commission at various
places in Belgium.

the entire flock took to fight. Reliev-
