Victoria, B. C.-Stories of a secret

Pacific coast and of a rush trip with
the money across Canada in a heavily
guarded special train, disguised as a
silk express were published in the Vic
toria Colonist recently as part of the
hitherto untold history of the World
war.
Two recent newspaper dispatches,
seemingly unrelated, the Colonist said,
recalled the "hitherto unpublished and
romantic story Of the gold shipment.
One dispatch from Europe said Mr..
Novitsky, former assistant to the min
lister of finance of the all-Ilussian gov
ernment, had hinted at the huge
amounts of gold shipped through Van
couver, B. c., during the war, includ-
ing f60,000000 from vladlvostok.

The other dispatch said the Cam
dian cruiser Rainbow had been sold to
a Seattle firm. The connection, the
COlonist said, was in the fact the Rain
bow transferred big shipment of the
gold at sea from japanese warship
and brought 1t into Vancouver.
Russia's gold, the story continued,
came in several shipments, the first Of
which amounted to about $45, 900, 900.
1t was in the form of bullion in boxes
about fifteen inches long, and was
loaded at Vladivostok early In 1916 for
transfer to the Ottawa (Canada) mint.
A big japanese warship with Novitzky
in charge Of the bullion, carried the
money across the Pacific.

The treasure ship never touched n

WELFARE WORK IN STATE
WHITE CROSS SERVICE TO Be ESTAB-
LISHED FOR COMING SEASON.

The territory embraced in the can
ming district of Delaware and neigh
boring States will receive quick ben
efits from the budget now being col
lected by the campaign of the Inter-
church World Movement, with its 80
denominations in cooperation, which
is seeking $685., ,572 this week and
next, according to those in charge Of
the campaign.
1t is announced that Miss Lila Bell
AchesOn. veteran war time welfare
worker, has been appointed by the In
terchurch World Movement as head
OF what is to be known as the White
Cross welfare service, to establish
home life in the place Of hobo" life
in the fruit and vegetable centers OF
Delaware, New Jersey and Maryland.
Ii will reach 10000 seasonal workers.
Miss AchesOn, whose home is in Ia
coma, Wash. will set up camps for
various church boards in the most
cOngested districts in the fruit and
vegetable areas, where year after
year migrant workers flock from the
city to help in gathering crops, living
in conditions, in some instances,
which rival New York east side tene-
ment life Several welfare workers
will assist Miss Acheson, and take
charge OF the camps when the sum
mer work begins.
This welfare service has been es-
tablshed to meet conditions where
the number of workers is TOO large to
share the farmers home, and as a re-
suit, the people have been forced to
live in labor camps, where sanitation
recreation and general living condi-
tiOns are at a low level.
Miss Acheson and her aides will in
trOduce a program of recreation. caf-
eteria service, an information bureau,
lectures on sanitation and hygiene,
and perhaps establish day nurseries
and schools for the children of the
foreign women who enter this kind
of summer work from Wilmington,
Philadelphia, Baltimore and other cit
les near the vegetable producing dis
triCts. The workers will be made to
understand that the camps are solely
for their benefit, but the centers will
not be imposed upon them.
This White Cross service in the can
merry districts is an outgrowth of the
worldwide survey made by the Inter-
church World Movement i'm prepara-
tion for the great drive now taking
place for a budget to be used by the
80 cooperating denominations to eX-
pand their educational, medical, SO
cial welfare and evangelistic enter
prises in all quarters of the globe.
