GENERAL BLISS
TALKS ON EUROPE
Food Supply Should Be Pooled and Dis
tributed Under One Head
Can't Help Russia.

WASHINGTON, Dec. o4-Europe's
most urgent need today Is the pooling of
its food supply and the establishment of
proper distribution facilities under di-
rector general, Is the opinion of Gen. Tas-
ker H. Bliss. member Of the American
peace delegation who reached Washing
ton today from Paris. Such an arrange
ment. he said, would remove discomfort,
strengthen morale and aid over their
formative period the new governments
which have been created as result of
the war
Germany SHOULD be included in the eco
ncmic coalition. Gen. Bliss said. With
Germany excluded. he declared, there
wonld be an element of discomfort which
would inevitably react on the other coun-
tries. Gen. Bliss saw no possibility OF in
cluiing Russia in the plan, but he said
if the present so-called government of
that country would play fair with the
rest of the world for 80 days and during
that time the general distribution of ne
cess;ties could be worked TO, include
Russia he believed the present situation
in that country would be completely
changed
There is no reason for famine threat
ening any portion OF Europe, Gen. Bliss
said despite the destruction and loss OF
production during the war. He estimated
food products this year in Europe to be
| between so and So per cent of normal
Interruption of distribution and hoard
ing OF excess supplies explain the present
economic situation, in his opinion.
