THE DEAD LEFT WITHOUT
BURIAL.

DR.. Bogen in his communications
tells of numerous strikes on the part
Of employees Of the local Gmina or
Jewish Relief Agencies and which,
while these societies had very little at
their disposal to distribute, neverthe-
less greatly accentuated the hardships
Of the population and tremendously
increased the difficulties. Even those
working for the cemeteries struck, not
being provided with sufficient pay
with which to exc out an existence. OF
this he says:
at was astonishing to me TO find
that all the district bureaus Of the
war relief societies had been closed
for almost a month on account Of a
strike among the employees, during
which the poor received no assistance
and the entire work was at a stand
still. The employees explained to me
that their salaries were absolutely in
adequate and made it impossible for
them to obtain even a mere existence.
People working at the cemeteries
struck so that the dead could not be
buried, horrible situation, but one
which had happened before and which
the public, even the poor, seemed to
take quite lightly" These strikes have
since been settled.

STATEMENT TO PUBLIC BY JEW.
ISH COMMITTEE.

The representative Of the Joint Dis
tribution Committee, themselves, also
issued an additional statement, ad-
dressed to the Jewish public:
"At the present time we are engaged
in arranging the place of the distri-
button OF the food sent by the Ameri-
can Jews for Jews in Poland.
"The food will be distributed to as
many poor as possible. Naturally in
the first line the extremely poor will
be provided with food.
"We are doing our best to organ
ize the distribution in such way that
those who receive the food should not
be obliged to wait forming long files.
We shall also strive for fair treatment
of those who receive the food.
1--WE shall do everything in our
power that nobody should be wrong
ed. Those who ought to receive food
should receive il without any Difficult
ties, and those who ought not to re-
ceive it should not receive it. We re-
quest you, therefore, those engaged in
the distribution and those who receive
food, help US to carry out our task to
give relief to the needy people"

TERRIBLE CONDITIONS IN
POLAND.

The situation in Poland is graphi-
cally described by DR.. Boris d. Bo-
gen who has possibly been most deep
ly impressed with the attitude Of the
population itself, and Of which he
says:
"The population has seen and felt
so much of suffering thet 1t has be-
come calloused to hardship and to
want, but the spectacle Of hundreds
of starving children, Of women, in
the biting cold, clad only in the scan-
tiest Of filthy rags, and Of men, list
lessly and aimlessly walking the
streets asking for bread, has deeply
affected the committees representa-
tives."
Writing under date Of February IL,
and telling Of conditions at Warsaw,
he says:
81 am heartbroken over the situa-
ton. The people are here hopelessly
out with themselves and the world.
The only thing that keeps them alive
is the fatalistic faith in some miracle
in the near future.

CHILDREN ACCUSTOMED TO
ONE SCANTY MEAL.

Describing n typical school, known
as n froble school, or school for small
children, DR.. Bogen says: "The school
is situated on the third floor in a ten.
ement house. There are three teach
ers.. The teachers are one man and
two women, earnest and symapthetic,
but the children are miserably dress
ed and sickly looking, with flabby.
what seemed to be, swollen faces.
They spoke Yiddish and asked ques-
tions about America and whether we
had brought food. They used to get
two meals day, but lately have re-
eeived only one. The teachers thought
however, that this was enough. and
said in explanation The children are
used to going hungry and can now
stand much better the consequences
The rooms were terribly cold for
there was no coal. Coal is now about
ten marks for a pud (4O pounds), and
then II Is almost impossible To get"
