Hunger Ocdema" Is Cause of

Water in Body

Prague, July 1S.-A new hunger
disease is reported among the
children of some of the remote dis
triCts of Czecho-Slovakia. 1t is a
form of hunger ocdema," and ap-
pears to be due primarily to the
presence of too much water in the
body, owing to starvation. Its pres
cnce is reported from several dis
tricts by the American women
workers who have gone out to or
ganizc relief work for the Ameri-
can Red Cross. One of these re-
ports. received to-day, says:
Great care must be taken that
the food gets to the children
themselves and not to their par
ents. 1t seems almost unbelievable,
but the parents are frequently ac-
cused of being the worst enemies of
their own children in respect to
food, and in one town we were told
there was no mother-love left.
Most of the children are suffer-
ing from this strange Hunger oC-
dema' and there is also a tremend-
Gus increase in tuberculosis and
other diseases which one recognizes
instantly as due to malnutrition."

Belgium Steel Combine

Brussels. July 1S.--Out of the

which was systematically destroyed
by the Germans, will spring one of
the biggest steel combinations in the
world. Ten or twelve of the most
powerful corporations whose plants
were laid waste have decided to
pool their interests into one inn

Stock in the various companies is
being taken care of according to
the method followed in merging
many American plants in the United
States Steel Corporation. The only
thing remaining to be done is to
place a valuation upon the ore
mines in the Briey basin and the
Duchy of Luxembourg, which will
form a part of the new trust.

forgotten them and no word had come
from their relatives and friends. There
was no future in Germany nor hope
of anything better in their own country.
Hundreds of thousands of Russians who
had fought vaiantly for the allied
cause were slowly dying from depres-
sion, mental inactivity and physical
malnutrition.

Athletic games were introduced into
the camps and these stimulated the

medical and surgical requisite. The
camps were organized under the COM
mand of the American army personnel.
They began to take on new physical
aspect and the men showed signs of
returning life and courage. Although
they at first regarded us with suspicion
this was soon changed and they looked
upon us as friends. They found camp

SAYS RAILROADS
OUGHT TO PAY
OWN BOARD"
Paul M. Warburg Upholds
National Transportation
Conference Plan

Washington. July 1S.-A plea
that the railroads be required to
pay their own board" was made
before the House Committee on
interstate and Foreign Commerce
to-day by Paul NJ. Warburg, former
Governor of the Federal Reserve
Board, supporting the National
transportation Conference plan for
remedial railroad legislation.
Warburg explained in his intro
ductory statement that the Trans
portation Conference approached
the subject of remedial railroad
legislation in the belief that trans
portation should pay for itself.
His Interpretation was that the
yield of transportation rates. both
freight and passenger, should be
sufficient to pay for the transporta-
tion cost, including a reasonable
return on the value of the railroad
properties devoted to public ser
vice"
IF by paying higher prices for
all necessaries of life" he said, the
consumer bore the cost of increas-
ed wages involved in the cost of
production of these articles, there
freight charges the principle of cost
should be abandoned"
The witness declared, in support
of this argument, that there ap-
peared no reason why this cost of
transportation. forming only a frac-
ton of the total cost of things,
should be furnished at loss, to
be made good by taxation levied
indiscriminately from all instead
of having the transportation paid
by those directly served.
There is no reason why the man
paying high rent for dark and mar
row quarters in crowded city tene-
ments should pay the transporta-
ton for the commuter who lives in
healthier and more Commodious
quarters and pays a lower rent.
There would be no reason why n
fairly self-sufficient farmer should
pay taxes in order that the manu-
facturer may receive coal or ores
at transportation charge below
cost.
