supplies for the use Of the German
army was the chief factor last year
IN reducing Belgium TO starvation. 1t
is gratifying. too. TO note that the Ger
man governments agreement 10 keep
hands off is due chiefly to the Amer
lean commission that has been re-
lieving that starvation.
The commission has won the respect
and confidence OF everybody concern
ed by its absolute fairness and eff
cheney in handling supplies and help
ing the natives 20 regain their capac-
ity for seIf-support. The commission
has not only fed the hungry. 1t has
systemized the distribution OF food
from all sources. among all elements
OF the population. 1t has provided seed
and looked after the sowing. 1t has
arranged TO take charge Of the new
harvest and distribute it regularly
throughout the ensuing year. making
good by contributions from abroad
whatever is lacking.
The feeding Of Belgium will remain
in American hands, apparently, until
the war is over. by joint consent of
the conqueror and the conquered.
American benevolence is playing a big
part in it, and yet subordinate part.
The outstanding fact is the triumph
OF American business efficiency,
coupled with American honesty and
fairness

congress passed the really important
motion for independence, and the
Fourth only saw the adoption of the

much as possible
The budget for 1915 called for an
expenditure of s31,635.lS. Salaries,
set at $7S5 a month, have been in ex-
cess of this sum by more than 500

have been less than the allowances;

been spent during the first six months,
and the greatest expenditures are still
to be made.
