gions, with conditions most serious In
Finland.
Bohemia, Serbia, Roumania and
Montenegro have already reached the
famine point and are suffering & heavy
toll Of death. The Armenian populd.
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 neal. Al
though starvation is not yet imminent,
Italy. Switzerland, Bulgaria and Tur-
key are In the throes Of serious strin-
genciea
! In order to fulfill Americas pledge
In world relief We will have to export
every ton Of food which can be han
died through our ports. This means at
the very least a minimum Of 20,0O0,0O0
tons compared with 100000 tons pre-
var exports and 11,S20,0OO tons ex.
ported last year, when we were bound
by the ties Of war to the European
allies.
II we fail 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 a repetition of The Russian de-
bacle and our fight for world peace
will have been in vain.

FIRST thought was to express her graft
tude to the Commission Tor Relief In
Belgium for preserving the lives OF
millions Of her citizens.
Germany, on the other hand, need
not figure in such q map for Ameri-
can 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 cap care
for her own food problem II she is
given access to shipping and Ia enabled
to distribute food to the cities with
dense populations, which are the trout
BILE centers,
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-
u 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, 0OO, 900 people
there are beyond the possibility of
help. Before another spring thou
sands Of them inevitably must die.
This applies as we'll to Poland and
practically throughout the Baltic re-

A food map Of Europe today shows
not a 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 the
Ukraine only those countries which
have msiptalned 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
we'll 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 ratiohs Of Belgium and northern
France and is already making special
efforts to a r for their increased
after-the-war needs, which, with those
Of Serbia, must be Included In this
plan, are urgent In 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 d. to continue our
work there. The moment the German
armies withdrew from her soil and she
was established once more in her own

Chicago, Jan. 9.-Corn-Corn was
comparatively inactive but ranged
higher on prospects Of more snow and
cold weather in the west. Railroadlng
is already hanDpered by weather condi-
tons, receipts today being only lol
cars. There was not, however. keen
demand for the cash article, the bus<
of the sales being at yesterdays low
prices and the hndertone of the mar
ket heavy The supply OF cars is IN
creasing and, if the weather should
turn favorable, there would doubtless
be a considerable increase.
Oats-Oats futures were strong, eX-
cept for local pressure just after the
open. The bulge, which held well, was
accounted for partly by short covering
and partly by purchases by houses
who usually act for seaboard interests.
While the speculative situation appears
strong, the cash market was easy and.
with receipts on only 40 cars, sample
values Were quoted l cent lower. EN-
bargoes against shipments east are be-
ing extended.
Stocks-Stocks were irregular being
strong early, easier around mid ses-
Sion and again on the upgrade shortly
before the close. Peace talk was abroad
but seems to have been discounted as
a bear argument. The recent decline
has resulted in the change Of owner
ship from the general public to strong
er financial interests, and accumulation
again appears whenever the market
is weak. The problem Of floating the
third liberty loan is receiving consider
: able attention and is being used in
some quarters as a possible bear argu-
ment. The enormous increase in wealth
which this country has accepted Is OF
such proportions that, without serious
strain, the market of the new loan will
be accomplished.
Northwest cars wheat-Minneapolis
231; Duluth, s; Winnipeg. 335.
C1earance-Wheat and flour, 226,O00;

BAN ON FUEL REMOVED.
Manufacturers of Non-essentials NOT
10 Ra Deprived Of Coal.

washington, Jan. 9.-The fuel ad-
ministration today abandoned the pro-
posal to cut off supplies Of coal to nom
essential industries, adopting instead
coal budget. plan in which the inous-
tries themselves will be given a voice
in determining their coal reeds.
Operation of this plan, Fuel Admin
istrator Garfield said, will forever lay
the ghost OF the cutoff Of the non-es-
sent!al industries agitation. which has
been going on since the United states
entered the war. and automatically VIII
balance the relation between the pro-
duction and consumption Of coal ana
prevent any REPETITION OF the present
coal shortage.
Committees representing the large
industries not engaged In war work,
more than 100 in all. VIII be called into
conference with DR.. Garfield. they
will first be shown the amount OF coal
available for all purposes. the amount
required for war purposes and domes-
tic consumers. and the total curtaii-
ment in coal necessary to supply these
demands.
These committees will then be asked
to volunteer on behalf of their indus
tries a reduction of coal consumption
for 1918. They viii be asked to show
the fuel administration the best meth
cd OF accomplishing this curtailment'
and finally they will be asked to show
how restrictions can be arranged SO as
to affect only the less essential por-
tons Of their industries.
When an, agreement is reached as 20
the quantity OF coal to be conserved IN
each industry the fuel administration
will issue an order making the agree
ment effective as regards the total In
dustry involved.
Reorganization Of Industries into
articles essential in the war Is expected
to be one result of this new plan, as
coal will be allotted in proportion as
an industry contributes to war or do
nestle necessities.
