World Famine Near, is
Noted Economists Fear

NEW YORK, May 1.-The whole
world is threatened with famine.
This is the warning issued by Ar
thur Richmond Marsh. one of the
leading economists OF the United
States and a former president of the
New York cotton exchange. who also
declares that only prompt and ener-
getic action by the United States and
Canada can avert the calamity.
lie shows that all the warning Euro.
pean nations are suffering from large
deficits of foOdstuffs except possibly
Russia which is supposed to have a
mysterious grain supply about which
little is known. but which cannot be
exported to relieve the other coun.
tries
The crops OF Argentine fell far be-
low normal and with the deficiency
in her crops came also deficiency in
her normal meat supply for export

Australia lost 100000 OF her
sheep from drought last year and New
Zealand has been greatly alarmed
over the depletion in her herds, while
Holland and the Scandinavian coun-
tries have suffered enormous losses in
their dairy and swine products due to
the enforced curtailment of their i'm
portations of grain and mill feeds.
Enormous Deficit In Wheat.
The allied and neutral countries OF
Europe have reported a deficit OF from
$50 900 900 to $4,000 600 bushels OF
wheat to be filled by importation. The
maximum amount which the export
ing countries at the time OF The esti
mate could supply was S70000000
bushels.
At best, therefore, there was a
shortage OF about 100000 600 bushels
of wheat which could not be filled

Here in concrete form, therefore. is

fRx Associated rresa.,

New York, Sept. 15.-Speaking at
a luncheon of the Bond club of New
York yesterday, Frank A. Vanderlip,
president of the National City bank,
predicted that the next Liberty Loan
and succeeding ones, IL necessary,
would be successfully foated. Those
who heard him were bankers and
bond statesmen who participated in
the fiotation of the last Liberty Loan
and who have established a perman-
emit organization. Mr.. Vanderlip said
he believed whoIe-heartedly that the
governments financial policy has
been properly directed since the out
break of the war and the proposals
of the administration now before
congress were wise in every parti-
cular.
Army of Volunteers.
The speaker remarked that while
the job of floating the next loan
would be an enormous one, the per-
lection of distributing methods, a
better understanding of what to do,
the willingness of a great army of
volunteers through the country to
carry on the campaign of education
as regards the war, all would make
the work easier than during the first
"The experience of that campaign"
he said, has revealed the fact that
there prevailed through the nation a
great, blank ignorance even on the
part OF ordinarily well-informed
people in regard to bond investment.
AS q result of that campaign, which
was in substance a campaign Of
we are bound to reap a
harvest in the future when the peo-
pie become educated to the possi-
bilities of bond investment. The

Feel Personal Responsibility.
Benjamin Strong, governor Of the
Federal Reserve bank, here, also
spoke, saying there were visible
throughout the coun-
try, now that the nation Is engaged
in a war, of the development of a
sense Of personal responsibility
among the people. This, he said,
was most helpful in the task which

desire to distribute Liberty bonds.
