Af GnslAdy

Olive and Edward. ,jfa children OF
Edward Wilbur Irwin, will remain with
their father according to an order by
Justice LagaHsky, in the Supreme
Court, brooklyn, yesterday. The chill
dren had petitioned that they be al
lowed to live with their mother, Mrs,
Janet 7. Hardy Irwin Drum, of Hem
stead, Long Island, who was adjudged
in contempt of court early this month
for violation of a ruling by which she
was permitted to see her children for
a stated period.
In DENYING the Irwin children's petit
ton, Justice Lazansky said:
Il am inclined to believe that the
children have made this application
at the instance of the mother and not
so much as q matter of personal choice
OF course the court is interested in
the welfare of the children and will
protect them against improper sur
roundings and unhealthy influences,
but there is nothing before the court
in this application which indicates
that the children will not prosper in
their present environment.
"In any event, if it would be for
the best interests of these children to
be with their mother instead of their
father, the application should be made
by the mother and it will receive care
full attention"

All of 1t Is Paid for in
Advance, Statement Says;
Relieving Hunger as Best
Means to Prevent Anarchy

The erroneous impression that Amer
lean money is being used to feed the
people of the Central Powers of Europe
yesterday caused the American Relief
Administration to issue the following
statement from its headquarters, 45
Broadway:
"The decision to send food into Ger
many and Austria was made by the
Allied Council of Supply and Relief,
and was not n decision of Mr.. Hoover's
alone, nor of the American Relief Ad-
ministration. No part of the 100000,
600 appropriated by Congress for Euro
pean relief has been used for these
countries. The appropriation bill speci
the benefit of Germany. German Aus
tria, Hungary, Bulgaria or Turkey.
1.-THE Supreme Council Of Supply and
Relief is composed of representatives
of the United States, England, France
and Italy, and it is charged with the
duty, under the general direction of
the Supreme War Council, of deter
mining the general policy of European
relief work, first, taking into account
the needs of the Allies and neutral
countries, and of deciding measures for
its execution. Mr.. Hoover, as Director
General Of Relief, is assisted by per-
manent committee Of the council, rep
resentng each Of the four governments,
and has charge Of the distribution Of
the food. but all relief and supplies as
we'll as al dccisions,are in the name
and on behalf Of the four associated
governments.
"All the food that has been sent into
the enemy countries has been furnished
on commercial basis. being paid for
partly by shipping released for Allied
use. and partly By money deposited in
advance.
"'This food is being sent into the
enemy countries not alone for human-
tartan reasons. but because it is felt
shat the alienation Of distress and
hunger Is one of the surest means Of
preventing the spread of anarchy"
