SO SERBS
IN CHURCH WELL

just lately they had been finding in
the foothills of the mountains over
which the road went, graves in which
thirty, forty and fifty of these citizens
had been buried, after having been tor
tured and killed.
Large Factory There.
In Leskovatz before the war stood
one of the few large factories in Ser
bia.
1t had been making wooden cloth for
army uniforms and also linen cloth.
The buildings had been filed with
expensive machinery imported from
Austria and Germany.
When the Bulgarians came they put
up the machinery at auction to enter
prising citizens Of Bulgaria, and many
Of the machines carry tags or are
chalk-marked with the names of the
successful bidders.
They had not been able to transport
all the machines before the Serbians
came back, though a great many had
been moved, but all those which could
not be removed had been ~cleverly dam
, aged, almost beyond possibility Of re-
pair.
All the engines, all the various ma
chimes for the manifold operations re-
CURED In the manufacture of cloths
had been damaged at some vital spot.
All the leather belts and ever the
leather attached to rollers had been
cut away. The boilers had been made
useless.

United States Material in
France Will Be Dis
posed Of.
GET BEST PRICE POSSIBLE
Commission Will Sell Warehouses
Docks, Hospitals, Engines and All
Superfiuous Army Supplies
France Wants Our Horses.

Paris.-All supertluous material OF
the American expeditionary forces,
now stored In vast warehouses
throughout France, will be bargaiped
off to Europeans, provided 1t is
found cheaper to dispose of 1t here
than to transport 1t to the United
States. This announcement was made
by the United States liquidation com
mission. which Is holding conferences
to determine what disposition should
be made of the equipment.
The commission is composed Of Sen
ator Hollis Of New Hampshire, Homer
III. Johnson OF Cleveland, o.; Gen.
Charles G. Dawes, and Judge Edwin
B. Parker of Houston, Tex. Judge
Parker has not arrived here yet.
Europe Needs Equipment.
"We will get the best prices we pos.
sibly can for all materials" said Sen
ator Hollis to the Associated Press.
"There Is much equipment Of the
United States army which Europe
needs and which we shall be glad If
they buy. Our railroad equipment, In
rails, locomotives and cars, Is i'm
mense. France, Belgium, Roumania
and other belligerents and some neu.
trails are In the market for this mate,
rial.
Belgium already has asked for
large numbers of our uniforms and
automobiles, of which there are thou
sands still to be disposed of In the
most satisfactory way to give the
United States the benefit Of a good
transaction. There are many difficult
problems, such as imposts, but these
are matters for France.
"Some of our hospital material
also will be wanted by the French,
Hospital trains and hospital equip
ment can be used anywhere. OF course
hospitals which are fastened to the
ground can hardly be taken away, and
we will have to dispose Of these to
the best advantage.
Warehouses, docks and things gen
orally stationary and permanent vii
be subject to the best Arrangement
that can be made.

SURPLUS
TO EUROPEANS

France and the other allies will
need horses, and our horses will be
sold for the most we car get. We
will sell only those commodities
which our army does not need.
I'VE are unable to make an exact
compilation now of what can be dis
posed of, for that Is dependent upon
the size OF our new standing army of
occupation. We are going ahead with
the organization and discussion Of the
preliminaries and so are familiar1zing
ourselves with the problem. We will
visit the bases and get a grasp Of the
matter.
"Our purpose is to drive the best
bargain and conserve the values for
American materials OF this side. IL
we see that the material can be
shipped home to greater advantage
than sold here, we will keep it. Ii
is a business proposition for our gov.
eminent"

Poland, one of the new democracies,
was suffering from lack Of foods that
could only be supplied from America.
Saved From Starvation.
Hoover sent DR.. Vernon Kellogg to
investigate the situation. Kellogg re-
ported poland must have immediate
assistance from the outside world
(Which meant America) If the poorer
inhabitants Of the large cities and the
unemployed workmen and children in
the industrial centers we're saved from
starvation"
Under normal conditions, Poland Is
self-supporting, as regards food, but
four and a half years of war had
brought the nation to desperate straits.
German looters stripped all machines
Of copper and betting. Scores Of ma
chimes were wantonly destroyed. Tons
Of stuff were carried away by the Ger
mans.
In all Poland, with it's 100000 peo-
pie, the danger Of starvation was a
daily menace from December, when
the peace conference started, until
food from America arrived.
Take Security.
1t is with such nations as Poland
that Hoover has to deal. There was
only one way to obtain some kind Of
compensation for American foods dis
tributed. This zone way" entailed con-
siderable risk when one thought In
terms of millions Of dollars. But mill
lions-in the old war game were mere
pawns In the gigantic enterprise Of
war. And In the first reconstruction
days they had to be viewed from the
same standpoint. The n just meth
cd, according to the Hoover policy,
| was to take some kind Of security from
the nations benefited by American sup
plies. Each nation had a different Sc
curity, Roumania had oil fields which
formed a basis Of credit, If the world
(America) sent food In time. The
world needed oil, and Roumania need
| ed food.
In Warsaw there was another kind
of security the wooden mills, which In
peace times were among the finest In
the world. Factories could not re-
open, however, until the employees
were fed. The population was weak
ened from hunger. Feed the people ;
they In turn will feed the securities"
was the Hoover policy. The first need
has been met by a gift ship from Amer
lea, but it is only a drop In the bucket.

U. S. Supply of Oil
Held Near Half Gone

Washlngton.-FOrty per cent
Of the total known oil supply In
the United States, exclusive or
oil shale deposits in three
states, has been exhausted, &c
cording TO estimates transmitted
by Secretary Lane to the SEN
ate commerce committee in COM
pliance with n resolution pre-
scented by Senator Ransdell OF
Louisiana, and made public by
the committee.
Up TO last January 4, MI. Lane
said, a total of 4,59S,OOO,OOO
barrels had been produced, while
the known available oil re-
sources, not counting the shale
deposits, in the ground and In
field storage were estimated at
6,740,000,0 900 barrels. Distilla-
ton of shale deposits In Colora-
do, Utah and Wyoming, how
ever, would produce 7O,OOO,OOO,-
600 barrels of oil, the secretary
said.

1t is an open question whether the
machines can be repaired, and If re-
pair were possible, as to whether ii
would not cost more than to take a
fresh start.
The owner, n of the few capital
lists of Serbia, seemed to take an al
most melancholy satisfaction In hav-
ing us see how his life work had been
destroyed. He seemed too old, too
broken and too discouraged to take
a fresh start.

there Is a church.
Under the church a well.
In the well the bodies of fifty citi-
zens of Leskovatz were found
drowned.
Their arms and legs had been tied
and they had been thrown into the
water by the B~ulgarians when they
swept over Serbia, a citizen of the
town Of Leskovatz told me.
He also said that a good many of
the leading citizens Of L~eskovatz,
priests, school teachers and such, had
been deported-as those left behind
understanding Bulgaria. But that

Allied Navies' War
Loss $4,000 Tons

LOndon.-The allied naval
losses In the war aggregated
100000 tons, according to an es-
innate sent by Reuters Paris
correspondent. OF this loss the
British portion was $4,000 tons.
The central powers lost 49,
600 tons, but the German total,
which was $4,000 tons, does
not cover the huge tonnage sur
rendered under the armistice
terms.
Commenting upon these esti-
mates, the Westminster Gazette
says: when we learn that in
big ships alone we sacrificed
thirteen battleships, three battle
cruisers and twenty-five cruis-
ers, we get some notion Of the
tremendous character Of the eff
fort that was necessary to ena-
bic the navy to emerge from the
war vastly more powerful than
1t was at the end of 1914"

Paris.-Backed by 800, 100000 voted
by congress, Herbert Hoover is here
directing Americas big part in feed
Ing the famlne-threatened nations of
Europe.
But 1t is not the policy Of Mr.. Hoov-
er's commission to give food away to
the peoples now so sorely pressed with
reconstruction problems. They must
pay-at once, whenever possible.
When they cannot pay, they are to be
given credit, with security that will
insure America against total loss.
Any other policy would mean the
pauperization of Europe, and Hoover
has no intention whatever of conduct
ing a commission that would quickly
put the millions Of Roumania, Poland,
and Serbia, to say nothing Of the en-
emy nations, into a mighty bread line.
With this fundamental policy as the
basis of conducting a gigantic relief
commission, Mr.. Hoover first of all
needed money and authority to start
the machinery. He had come to Eu-
rope with 100000 apportioned from
President Wilson's contingent funds to
finance such immediate relief work as
was found, upon investigation, to be
absolutely necessary for the salvation
Of Europe's new democracies, the
Czecho-SlOvaks, the Poles and Serbs,
and also the Roumanians.
Congress Votes 500, 900, 600.
When Hoover had had a chance to
look around, he discovered that So
100000 was just about enough to
finance food shipments for one Of these
nations. He did not single out n ma
ton, however, but ordered cargoes ag-
gregating $15,OOO,OOO rushed from the
United States at once.
He trusted the American people to
provide the capital needed. And when
he got the first news of the final pas
sage Of the S1OO,OOO,OOO appropriation
In congress-, an expression of relief
came into his face that had not been
there for weeks.
With a small staff, Mr.. Hoover has
headquarters in the Hotel de Crillon,
In Paris, which has been turned into
a combination Office building and hotel
for members of the American commits
sion to negotiate peace.
Some Of Mr.. Hoover's most trusted
aides are making personal inspections
of the food situation In Poland, Serbia,
and Austria.
DR.. Alonzo Taylor's report from VI
emma is very interesting. He found
the output Of coal and agricultural
products in AUSTRIA Hungary seriously
reduced during 1917 as the result Of
the war, and still further lowered dur
ing 1913.
Austria Hungary Badly Crippled.
AS a result Of the war and the allied
food blockade, the stocks Of cOmmodi-
