A food map of Europe today shows not q single country in which the fu- ture does not hold threat of serious difficulties and only a small part which is not rapidly approaching the famine point. With the exception of sthe Ukraine only those countries which have maintained marine commerce have sufficient food supplies to meet actual needs until next harvest, and even in the Ukraine, with stores accu- mulated on the farms, there is famine in the large centers of population.
 Belgium and northern France, as well as Serbia, appear on the hunger map distinct from the rest of Europe because they stand in a different rela- 'ton from the other nations to the peO- pie of the United States. America has for four years maintained the small war rations of Belgium and northern France and is already making special efforts to care for their increased after-the-war needs, which, with those of Serbia, must be included in this plan, are urgent fin the extreme and must have immediate relief.
 The gratitude of the Belgian nation for the help America has extended to her during the war constitutes the strongest appeal for us to continue our work there. The moment the German armies withdrew from her soil and she was established once more in her own

gions, with conditions most serious in Finland.
 Bohemia, Serbia, ROumanIa and Montenegro have already reached the famine point and are suffering a heavy toll of death. The Armenian popula- ton is falling each week as hunger takes its toll, and in Greece, Albania and ROumania so serious are the food shortages that famine is near. Al though starvation is not yet imminent. Italy, Switzerland, Bulgaria and Ts4A key are in the throes of serious strih- gencles.
 In order to fulfill Americas pledge in world relief We will have to export every ton of food which can be han dled through our ports. This means at the very least a minimum of 10000. 900 tons compared with 6,000,OO0 tons pre- war exports and 11,S20,OOO tons ex- ported last year, when We were bound by the ties of war to the European allies.
 If we fan to Tighten the black spots on the hunger map or if we allow any portions to become darker the very peace for which we fought and bled will be threatened. Revolt and anarchy inevitably follow famine. Should this happen we will see in other parts of Europe repetition of the Russian de. bacle and our fight for world peace will have been in vain.

CHAIRMEN REBUkE BOAT OWNERS FOR
 WAGE REFUSAL
FORMER PRESIDENT TAFT ANC BASIL MANIEY, JOINT HEADS OF WAR LABOR BOARD HOLD THAT WAR IS NOT ENDED UNI TIL PEACE TREATY IS SIGNED

NEW YORK, Dec. 2i.-Refusal of associations representing harbor boat owners here to submit to arbitration dispute with their employees regard ing pay and working hours was re- buked today by the national war labor board. which oveTruled their claim that the New York harbOr wage ad- justment board, created under an agreement with their men, had gone out of existence with the signing of the armistice.
 Former President William H. Taft and Basil Manly, joint chairmen of the war labor board, dismissed the contention of the employers that Pres ident Wilson in saying to congress, thus the war comes to all end" had proclaimed peace. They also denied a secondary plea of the boat owners that the wage adjustment board had been dissolved by resignation of some of it's members and advised that i'm mediate steps be taken to fill the vacancies. Consequently. they stated. both employers and employees were BOulu Ds lliGAl dSlCtlithN OA .heAF isAoN to submit throughout the war all diff ferences to the wage adjustment board. citing in emphasizing the urg- ency of such action, "the necessity of food being shipped to Europe for the civilian populations and our forces under arms across the sea"
 Previous to the reading of the de- cision by MT Taft. the boat owners announced that they were willing to arbitrate the wage question. but not before the wage adjustment hoard. which they considered without au- thority" A basic S-hour day, they as serted, was impracticable for harbor craft.
 The owners delegates left the con ference without any intimatiOn as to whether their attitude had been changed by the war labor boards de cree.
 During the hearing, called with the hope of avoiding a threatened strike of the harbor workers. set for last Thursday. and postponed pending to- days conference, it developed that T. ] " O'Connor. representing the marine workers organization, Frederick A. | Bishop, a delegate from the owners i associations and two representatives ! of the ralroad administration had re-

 Three English civilians who have celebrated the signing of the armis- tice, were coming down the Under der Linden, singing "The Watch on the Rhine" when they were stopped by German soldiers who said they ought to be ashamed of themselves for singing such rubbish.

seat of government the little nations first thought was to express her grati tude to the Commission for Relief ill Belgium for preserving the lives oi millions of her citizens.
 Germany, on the other hand. need not figure fin such a map for Ameri. cans because there Is no present indi- cation that we shall be called on at all to take thought for the food needs of Germany. Germany probably can care for her own food problem If she is given access to shipping and is enabled to distribute food to the cities with dense populations, which are the trou- ble centers. z
 England, France, the Netherlands and Portugal, all of which have been maintained from American supplies, have sufficient food to meet immediate needs, but their future presents seri- ous difficulties. The same is true of Spain and the northern neutral coun- tries-Norway, Sweden and Denmark whose ports have been open and who have been able to draw to some degree upon foreign supplies. .
 Most of Russia is already in the throes of famine, and 40,O00,O00 people there are beyond the possibility of help. Before another spring thou sands of them inevitably must die. This applies as well to Poland and practically throughout the Baltic re-
