Reply of "Big Four" to Suggestions of
Doctor Fridtjof Nansen-Con-
ditions Named.

Paris, April 19.-The reply Of the
big four" relative to the suggestion of
Dr. F'ridtjof Nansen, that neutral ma
tons be permitted to supervise the
feeding of the starving people of Rus
sla was made public here. The pri-
mary condition of the cooperation Of
the allied powers is that Russia return
to basis Of peace.
The following letter has been adj
dressed by DR.. Fridtjof Nansen, Nor
Wegian representative, to President
Wilson and Premfers Clemenceau,
Lloyd George and Orlando.
The present food situation in Rus
STA, where hundreds of thousands of
people are dying monthly from sheer
starvation and disease, is one of the
problems now uppermost in all mems
minds.
"As it appears that no solution Of
this food condition question has so far
been reached in any delegation, I
would like to make a suggestion from
a neutral point of view for the bene-
tit of this gigantic misery, on purely
humanitarian grounds"
The following reply was sent by
President Wilson and the premiers:
"The misery and suffering in Rus
STA, described in your letter of. April
3, appeals to the sympathies of all
peoples. 1t is shocking to humanity
that millions of men and women and
children lack the food and nourish-
ment which make life endurable.
''The governments and peoples which
we represent would be glad to COOP
crate, without thought of political, mil
itary or financial advantage, in any
proposal which would relieve this stu
alton in Russia.
"The people in each locality should
be given, as under the regime of the
Belgian relief commission, the fullest
opportunity to advise your commits
sion upon the methods and the person
mel by which their community is to be
relieved.
'"That such a course would involve
the cessation of. all hOstilities within
definite lines in the territory of Russia
IS obvious"

What's the Matter With PumpkIns7
The pumpkin pie season has arriv.
ed, and somehow pumpkin pies are
Lot as popular as they should be, II
enc may Judge by the remarks Of the
erocers who claim that pumpkins dc
not sell at all as they should; presun
ably because they have an affinity
for so much milk and eggs. A friend
of mine called up seven stores In the
city offering a yard full Of pumpklnt
for song-but there was nothing
doing. Cant sell EN-" says the
grocer. Cant get rid Of those 1
have" Say, isn't that a calamity !
Where's the regular pte-face who

Can't he come out In the open at this
stage of the game and insist on pie;
even with eggs at 70 cents a dozen.
Six eggs will make three pies, addeo
To the strained pumpkin-aud moth
ing else is required but home grown
pumpkins, spices, sugar and a little
milk, in proper combination. Some
folks Ike pumpkin pies made like
custard ones with more milk than
anything else. Others want them
nearly all pumpkin. 1 think myself
the last kind is the genuine article.
A bit of cranberry jelly on top of a
tender, flaky Thanksgiving pie is

Attorney General Palmer's telegram
follows
Ton Afr. Keeney that the admins
ttation' action is acknowledgement hy
him, saat the law forbids any agree
ment or arrangement to restrict the
