Senator William G. Sproul, Of Chester,
will begin his campaign tour for the
Republican gubernatorial nomination to-
morrow in the anthracite regions. The
Senator will leave the city tonight for
Scranton and will spend tomorrow in

part with making a personal campaign
among the individual voters, but in
tends to address a number of mass
meetings in various sections of the

US. ANSWERS APPEAL
OF STARVING BELGIUM
Rotterdam to Get 100000
Bushels of Wheat Within
a Month
Mashlngton, Anril 23.

The hunger-faint voice of the inhabi
tants of Belgium has called to the United
States for more food, and the machinery
Of Government is in motion to answer
the "call which cannot be denied" as
every official concerned in the matter
termed it.
Through cooperation on the part of
the commission for relief in Belgium, the
food administration and the shipping
board, there will be dispatched 10 Rot
terdam within the month more than
1000, 5000 bushels of grain. The wheat
will come from the reserve under the
control Of the food administration. Tll~
shipping control committee of the ship
ping board has arranged to make vessels
aggregating $4,000 to 10000 tons avail
able for this purpose.
Two material aids in furnishing help
to the Begians were seen today i'm the
decision of the United States to trans
port TO this country a portion of the
$50, 600. 900 bushels reserve supply of
wheat now in storage in Australia, and
the arrival in London of an American
representative to sit with and take part
in the Inter-Allied Food Council.
The warning cabled here was that re-
lief must come within a month or the
starvation point would be reached. OFF,
cials did not think German objections
would cause any difficulty. The Ger
mans, according to men who took part in
the work while the Americans were in
charge, have always shown disposition
to play square on Belgian food, chiefly
because il relieved them of n tremendous
problem behind their own lines.
The food which must be furnished
Belgium may mean curtailment for a
corresponding period of time In the tom
mage that can be devoted in the trans
atlantic trade to civilian needs.
Steps already taken will make it pos
sible for the United States TO meet a
further drain upon its wheat stores
without disastrous consequences through
replenishment from Australia, Within
