MISS SPENCER SPEAKS
 BEFORE NORWICH AUDIENCE.
Prominent War Relief Worker Tells of the Awful Conditions in Trenches and Hospitals.

On Friday afternoon a very large and interested audience gathered at the home Of Mrs. Oliver L.. Johnson to hear Miss Carita Spencer speak on the Food for France Fund Miss Spencer is the chairman Of this war relief work. with headquarters in New York, and has been appointed general foreign delegate by Minister Justin Godardt, under secretary of state and head of the French Service de Sante.
 Miss Spencer has been on four fight ing fronts in this war. England. France. Italy and Belgium, and nas seen the actual conditions and awful needs in the trenches and hospitals and behind the lines as well
 As the name would indicate. the ob- ject Of this particular form of war re- lief is the providing of a fund for the buying of food for France.
 Miss Spencer spoke as follows:
 Here in America we have been en- gagged in making and sending hospital supplies and in many forms of relief work for long time, but the neces- sity for enlarging our scope of work grows every day The time has pass ed when the American people can be appealed ID on the basis of sentiment It has come down to hard facts and we must begin to realize the necessity of Enobilizing our forces for efficiency Every day we have a choice as to the spending of our money.

ARRANGEMENT MADE BY
 THE FOOD COMMISSION
To Supply Beleians and Some of the
 Neutrais With Food.

Washington Aug. 24.-Belgians will get food quickly and neutrals will have some of their wants supplied through an arrangement entered into today by the food comission and the govern rnents of the neutral European cOun- tries.
 It was decided to let thirty or more Ouch ships sail at once from an At lantic port carrying grain owned by The Netherlands government on con dition that the greater part of the car goes shall be used for the relief of the Belgians. It was also announced that the Swedish mission had sold at cost 552 900 bushels of wheat in this coun- try to the Belgian relief. The wheat was bought by the Swedish govern ment last January ond has been held in elevators ever since. This will go forward immediately in ships to be se- cured by the Belgian relief commits sion and will take the cargo space of several lage freighters.
 In return the Swedish government will be allowed to ship 270,000 bushels of rye of the new American crop which will be available in September or October.

All the Il en are at the front so there are no wages or salaries coming in to the families. The districts from which Germany is now retrea ting are devas- tated beyond description. Germany is taking every woman and child that can be used and every man that can work in any capacity for them.

They may be taken to one of two kinds of hospitals. the military hospital or the Red Cross.

It is for these men who haven't a tlens, who have given up everything for their country and who are hungry, but who are only waiting to get well enough to go back to the front again, that we are asking this aid. We don't need to really Wor- ry about America yet, but all these. our allies. are bearing a tremendous burden. To be sick and wounded unto death is hard indeed, but to be weak and hungry with no means of obtain ing food is surely lamentable fate to overtake these brave and uncom- blaming heroes.
