sands OF dollars have been stolen
from the American organization for
relief in the near east recently, ac-
cording to evidence placed before

u. S. Has Monument
to Official Waste

Washington, Sept. 1o.-Taxpayer-
vfsitorsMn Washington who are in
terested Nm the present cost of main
tanning the government, can CLEAN
more information from visit to
Potomac Park. supposedly one Of the
show spots Of the city. than by any
inquiries they may make at the
treasury department. In q series of
dilapidated barracks In that park
there are stored more than $1,500,000
worth OF office supplies that would
delight the heart of many a business
man.
There are difficulties to be sur
mounted. however. If close inspec-
ton Is to be made. Signs warn visit
ors away from certain Of the build
ings. Sagging and bullying walls
point to an early collapse, but they
still are filled with material acquired
by the various government depart
ments during the war, and now re-
garded as surplus. Those buildings
that are not approaching a state Of
dilapidation leak IN places, and all
are more than a mile from the near
est fire station, with nothing but
hand extinguisher in each In case Of
fire.
Building after building Is filled
with desks. used by the men who
fought the Battle Of Washington"
but now surplus. There are more
than 1000 typewriters stored in two
buildings alone, yet the business man
who wishes to buy a typewriter now
finds he may have to wait a week
or two before he can get delivery.
There are thousands Of chairs, in
Vulnerable wastebaskets, squads Of
filing cases and other forms OF Of
flee equipment, apparently in suffi-
cfent quantity to fit out all of the Of.
fices In an average size city. Only so
much OF this material as the govern
ment finally classifies as junk reach
es the market; the rest is being held
for some Indefinite day when it may
be needed by one Of the departments.
Stored as 1t is, 1t is more likely to
return to dust.
And that does not include all OF,
tho surplus of that character owned
by the government. Officials, to
whose attention the condition of the
barracks has been called, complain
because they are not empowered to
build an adequate storehouse, where
500 truckloads Of such equipment,
now resting the halls of various gov
eminent buildings, may be placed.
A recent protest or the fire marshal
of the District Of Columbia caused a
little cleanup in the storage district.

MAcswInEY PASSES BAD NIGHT
Hunger Strikers in State of Complete
Exhaustion After Thirty Two Days.

Hunger Strikers in State of Complete
Exhaustion After Thirty Two Days.
BY Associated Press.
London. Sept. 13.-Terence Mac
Swiney, lord mayor of Cork, was in
state of collapse and exhaustion
this morning at B-ixton prison,
where he is continuing his hunger
strike. This is the thirty-second day
of his fast. MacSwiney passed a
restless night. according to a bulle-,
tin issued early today by the Irish
Self League.
Rumors that Irish hunger strikers
in Jail In the city of Cork are being
fed su-reptitiously, are denied in a
Dublin dispatch to the Daily Mail,
which declares the only nourishment
they are receiving is from oil with
which they arc rubbed to alleviate
the pain they suffer due to wasting
tissues.
Mrs. MacSwiney, wife OF the lord
mayor, together with his sisters,
Mary and Anna, and his brother,
Sean. have addressed an appeal to
the American ambassador and the
hCduS VI LILO otucI cIuDaSSl6S ana le-
cations in London for submission to
their governments.
It calls the attention to the case of
the lord mayor and that Of the eleven
hunger strikers at Cork and expressed
the hope that the united consuls of
the nations addressed will prevent
the tragedy now pending and thereby
calm the peoples Of the world"
The letter deals fully with Mayor
MacSwiney's case from the date of
his arrest to the present time, and
says: - y
Lord Mayor MacCurtain was MUIR
dered for the same reason for which
Lord Mayor MacSwiney is being muir
dered now-because he was fighting
for self determination for his country.
If the present tragedy is allowed to
proceed we are confronted with the
unparalleled crime Of two lord mayors
of the same city being murdered
within six months Of each other by a
supposedly civilized government.
1--WE are Of the opinion that this is
of grave concern for all government"
