PARIS, Feb. 5.--The American 1000
administration yesterday gave out
following statement relative to the
relief of Rumania and other countries:
THE American steamship Western
Plain has arrived at Rumanian port
with seven thousand tons of American
flour for the relief of the Rumanian
population who have suffered an al
most total failure of their crops. Even
from these poor crops. Germany requi-
sitioned large quantity Of grain and
transported it to Germany.
"One hundred thousand tons OF THIS
grain was found in barges on the
Danube, when the allies entered Ru-
mania, and was restored to the own
erS.
In accordance with the promises
made to the Czecho-Slovak govern
ment, the United States relief admin
istration has delivered to 1t five
thousand tons of flour at Triest. which
is being transported by the Czecho-
Slovak trains to Prague. There has
also been placed at the disposition OF
the Czecho.Slovaks at Triest. SIX
thousand tons of pork and ten thou
sand tons of flour. Additional quanti-

ties are available for them at that
point as fast as transportation can
be arranged.
"The difficulty of transportation IL
accentuated by the fact that all trains
from Triest to Bohemia must pass
through Italy and Jugo-Slav and Aus
trian territory and it has been neceS-
sary to make arrangements with these
other peoples to insure safe transit
Since these territories are all extreme
ly short of food themselves and have
very little stable government, Ameri-
can soldiers are expected to accom-
pany the trains as guards.
"The supreme council OF supply ana
relief has established an inter-allied
commission, composed of one repre-
sentative from each of the American,
British, French and Italian govern
ments, to control the transportation
and distribution of food from the part
of Triest to the interior RailrOa d
! communication to the principal parts
of the Czecho-Slovak, as well as the
Jugo Slav territory will be handled
from that point.
Captain Thomas c. Gregory OF San
| Francisco, is the American representa-
| tive and member of the inter-allied
mission. He is accompanied by Lieu
| tenant Colonel w. B. Causey, of Chi
cago; Major George E. Burke, OF

Quarter Million British
Troops Are Demobilized
INV Associated Press,

LONDON. Feb. 5.-More than a
quarter of a million men were demo-
bilizcd in the week ended January 30.
and the total to date has exceeded a
million men. The rehabilitation Is
continuing in the most satisfactory
manner. but the opinion prevails here
that the one unfortunate feature of
the situation is that the men are not
being absorbed in civil occupations In
proportion to the rate Of demobiliza-
ton.
That the industries Of the country
arc unable to provide al these men
with jobs is said to be almost entirely
due to the fact that industry Is sui
fering from shortage Of coal. This
shortage is one of the most serious
questions at present facing the coun'
try.
