12O Cargoes of Food
To Europe in April
America Is Winning the Fight
Against Famine, Declares
Hoover in Report

PARIS, May 18.-The monthly state
ment of relief measures effected by
the inter-Allied relief organization,
issued to-day by Herbert G. Hoover,
shows a distribution in metric tons
during April aggregating 843.
The countries aided were Finland, Po-
land, Esthonia, Lithuania, Letvia, Bel
gium, Northern France, Germany, Ger
man Austria, Czecho- -Slovakia, Greater
Serbia, Rumania, Armenia, Turkey and
Bulgaria. The supplies represented
cargoes of about 120 steamships and
their value was approximately S147,-
100000.
In addition to the above, approx
mately 100000 tons of foodstufFs of
European origin were moved into areas
short of food supplies through various
agencies of the relief administration.
Since December / overseas supplies to
the value of approximately $325,314,OOO
have been furnished.
Mr.. Hoover says if the great stream
of food can be maintained until July
the situation will have been saved until
the next harvest in Europe.
"Altogether, for the first time, be-
gin to believe that America is winning
against the greatest famine the world
has seen since the Thirty Years War"
says Mr.. Hoover. II believe we shall
have passed the danger point of the
spread of Bolshevism."

pared to designate your successor.

In reply to Assistant Secretary

Defence Society Meeting Is
Thrilled by Pleas of DR..
Hill and Senator Harding
to Preserve u. S. Ideals
Ole Hanson Is Lionized
Speakers Warn of Organ
lied Conspiracy Against
the National Government

More than 5000 persons cheered at
tacks on Rolshevism and pleas for un-
adulterated Americanism at meeting
Of the American Defence Society in
Carnegie Hall last night. The meet
ing formed part of the society's nation
wide celebration of America Day.
The speakers were DR.. John Wesley
Hill, Chancellor Of Lincoln Memorial
University, and Senator Warren G..
Harding, of Ohio. Mayor Ole Hanson,
OF Seattle, was to have spoken, too, but
was obliged to leave the city earlier
in the day on business. His name was
loudly cheered when it was mentioned
by the presiding officer, Newton W.
Gilbert, former vice governor general
of the Philippines. At the conclusion
Of the meeting a telegram, approved
by the audience, was sent to Mayor
Hanson, expressing admiration for his
strong stand in behalf of Americanism
and the energetic methods by which
he suppressed the recent Bolshevik
Congress Coming Back'
Senator Harding drew loud applause
when he said that 1--WE went to war not
in defence Of world democracy but for
the preservation of Americas ma
tional rights" and again when he
limited that Congress once more will
assert its rights now that the moment
of peril has passed."
Another outburst of applause fol-
lowed when, speaking of the United
States Senate, Senator Harding said:
There are only ninety-six of us. I
know we are not held in high esteem
just now, but watch us. The preserva-
tlon of American nationaYism depends
upon the United States Senate and il
is not going to fail you. You are
American nationalists, not interna-
tionalists." Senator Harding's remark
apparently was interpreted by the an
dlence as thrust at the league Of na-
tions.
In his address, DR.. Hill VIOLENTLY as-
sailed Socialism and Bolshevism.
"Socialism is joy riding in the dark.
and that is a dangerous diversion !"
said DR.. Hill "Socialism is that nbaso
of democracy which proposes to de-
stroy the institution of private prom
erty Bolshevism is only a new cloak
for the hydra head, un-American uon-
ster of Socialism.

Lindsley Suffers
From, Ir,suFerable
Vanity, Says Glass
Ne1o York Tribune
WdshinQton B1lredu


WASHINGTON, May 18-Late to-
night Secretary Of the Treasury Glass
who had not yet received Colonel
Henry T. Lindsley's letter of resigna-
ton as director of the bureau of war
risk insurance, issued a statement in
which he belittled Colonel Lindsley's
complaints and accused him of insult
ferable personal vanity. The state
ment follows in part:
"Ihe Secretary of the Treasury has
not received from the director of the
bureau of war risk insurance the let
ter of resignation said to have been
prepared by the latter and handed to
the press for publication; but the Sec
retary is quite ready to believe the di-
rector proceeded in just that fashion.
ut would not appear to be necessary
to explain to the public the desirability
of Colonel Lindsley's dismissal from
the service in view of his own author
lied statement that on April last he
expressed to the Assistant Secretary
OF the Treasury in charge of the war
risk bureau his utter Indifference as to
whether or not the directors official
communications to the Secretary of the
Treasury might fairly be construed as
a gross personal affront
"Ths one sentence clearly reflects
the spirit of exaggerated Importance
and insufferable personal vanity which
characterized the official conduct of
Colonel Lindsey for the entire five
months period Of his incumbency of
office, eliminating in his concededly
studied indignity of April 8. The
strutting around of this official and
the Extensively peremptory tone of his
memoranda finally ceased to be anus
ing, and that, among things of greater
consequence, accounts for his removal
"But aside from the effrontery in
volved in the directors cool demand
that the Secretary Of the Treasury
transfer to him Immediately the vari-
Gus duties and responsibilities which
the act of Congress imposes on the
Secretary with respect to the bureau
Of war risk insurance, the pretence
that his administration had been i'm
peded or harassed by Treasury con-
troll Is without the slightest founda-
ton in fact"

DR.. Hill outlined the situation in
Russia and the desperate state to
which Bolshevism has brought that
country. He supported his attack by
direct quotations from Lenine, and
then dwelt upon the dangers of the
insidious Bolshevik propaganda in the
United States. He called for the gov
ernment's most rigorous measures
against Bolshevik propaganda, and
urged the widespread teaching of
Americanism.
Senator Harding said that contrary
to the claims of Americas enemies

that there is such thing as the Amer
