WORK FOR FRENCH
klDpIEs WINS ALL.

The following letter from Mrs.
Mabel Erb, formerly a worker in the
surgical dressings department of
the Northern Division headquarters
at Minneapolis and now in Paris,
gives an idea Of the wonderful work
that IL being carried on by the Red
Cross in France. II think the French
people appreciate as much as any
thing else, what is being done at
this time for the children OF France.
The distribution OF food and cloth
ing throughout the devastated dis
tricts. as we'll as here in Paris, has
caused the French people to express
much gratitude. I am copying a.
PARAGRAPH from the Red Cross Daily
Bulletin, issued by the publicity de-
partment: The children's bureau is
experimenting the rations in the
school canteens OF the 19th Arron-
disement in Paris, where American

provisions have been requisitioned:
12s kilograms OF flour; 2b6 Kilograms
Of beans; 200 Kilograms of sugar;
440 Kilograms Of timed beef and
400 Kilograms Of cheese. The prin-
ciple OF experimenting school rations

ent, will be extended to the other

A food map Of Europe today shows
4 not a single country in which the fu-
ture does not hold threat Of serious
difficulties and only small part which
is not rapidly approaching the famine
point. With the exception of the
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 different rela-
tion from the other nations to the peo-
Eple 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-tlle-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
Tor 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

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 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 Tur-
key are in the throes Of serious strin-
gencies.
III order to fulfill America'srpledge
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 minimum of 10000, 900
tons compared with 100000 tons pre-
war exports and 11,82O,OOO tons ex-
ported last year, when we were bound
by the ties of war to the European
allies.
If we fail to tighten the black spots
on the hunger map or Ii 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 Russiah de-
bacIe and our fight for world peace
will have been in vain.

seat of government the little nations
first thought was to express her grati-
tude to the Commission for Relief In
Belgium for preserving the lives of
millions of her citizens.
Germany, on the other hand, need
not figure in 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 IL she is
given access to shipping and is enabled
to distribute food to the cities with
dense populations, which are the trcu-
bic 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-
Gus 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 10000, 900 people
there are beyond the possibility of
help. Before another spring thou
sands OF them inevitably must die.

Find Missing Business Man
Associates of G.. LOOMS Allen
Report Him as Located

SYRACUSE, March &C. LOOMS
Allen, OF this city, who disappeared
from Baltimore on January 10, has
been located, according to statement
issued by BUSINESS associates here to-
day.
T. C. Cherry, vice-president of Allen
& Peck, Inc, made the following an
nouncement:
&C. LOOMS Allen has been located.
He is not with a woman. We expect
to have definite word by the middle of
next week"
Mr.. Allen was last seen at Balti-
more hotel, where he resided while
serving as director of the War Board
of the American Railway Association.
Reference to "a woman" in the an
nouncement is accounted for by the
fact thae the name of Mr.. Allen had
been connected with that of promi-
nent Baltimore woman, who was said
to have disappeared at the same time
