ficence OF their hosts for sustenance,
In the southern United States hun
dreds OF thousands OF acres OF land
literally crying to the heavens for the
hand OF man to make 1t blossom and

But there are difficulties that must
be overcome before even one Belgian
family can be transported across the
water TO a new Eden. Else the whole
thing will be a failure
The prime consideration lies not in
the transportation problem. That is
comparatively easy. But the great
fact that the south must bear in mind
is that these Belgian outcasts are
destitute. They possess no means.
All they have is their knowledge of
farming and their willingness to
work.
To bring them TO America and set
them down on some vacant land and
tell them to get busy would be an
idle waste OF time. They must have
houses for their families. barns for
their crops. implements for their cul,

Here ls Food For the Hungry.

TO the Editor Of The Times:
In reading of the pitiful cases OF
hunger and desutution among the un-
employed, in your paper, i am moved
10 ask, while there Is SO mucn Oh
the spirit OF brotherly love, and al
truisuc effort abroad. if something
practical might not be done IN the
line OF utilizing the waste food in the
city? American wastefulness' is a
byword, as We know. l read an ar
ucle in London paper some time
after the war began, with its demand
for help for the refugees and other
destitute people, describing the plan
of young working woman. she
started in a small way gathering
broken and discarded but perfectly
good. wholesome food from hotels,
restaurants, bakeries, etc. The work
increased until she had one or more
motor cars coi.ecting and a central
place for distributing, with helpers
enough to systematiZe a really efh-
cient means OF supplying aid TO the
needy.
To read OF worthy, industrious men
and women, with families, entirely
without food, while seeking work, and
TO know that quantities OF good food
are dumped into the garbage barrels
every day, from hundreds OF hotels,
cafes and private houses, seems al
most objectionable. trust the ever
humane and progressive Times may
throw out this suggestion. and that

placed on every other farm, their
buildings and tools to be supplied by

plan that in a few years the intensive

owner will reap an immense incre-
