every indication that it will, within

The distressing feature of the situa

GERS of the Serbian government see
no reason why the people should not

and feeding them until new crops arc
harvested. This task has been un
dertaken but the government il
handicapped by a lack of railway
facilities and the almost impossible
roads. Help abroad is being sought
by the government for this agricul-
tural rehabilitation.
Societies that have operated in
former years to instruct the rural
population in methods of intensive
farming have been demoralized by
three wars in such rapid succession.
Therefore. despite all the governmen,

eleven millions will be added to her
population and every one recognizes

kussia's aid, can not be accomplished
without supreme sacrifices.
The Serbians are accustomed 10
poyerty and hardship, but there are
said to be a million persons really suf-
fering distress from lack of food and
clothing. They have never been re-
duced to such destitution before. And
he Serbians are contented with so
little. The army lives chiefly on
bread and soup and most of the
peasants. even in normal times, do
not eat meat except on fast days.
Help from the Slavs in America, lib
cral though it has been, is not ade-
iuate to meet the situation. Every
one here is pinning his hope for life
upon Americas philanthropic re-
sources. The government issues
loaf of bread day to every destitute
family, but this is far from sufficient
in many cases.
There are some six thousand
