was quoted at 6Oc; NOVl H. the quo

rather the foreign money markets.
No stability can be expected in

apply to the department of social Sc
curity to compel the husband or wife,
as the case may be, to pay support.
Mutual consent Of husband and wife

WAR ACTIVITY HUNS
Warsaw Is Crowded With Pow
erty-Strieken Refugees.
Women and Children Sleep on
straw-covered Basement
Floors.

Warsaw.-Warsaw is humming with
war activity and is crowded to its
very doors with hordes of poverty
stricken refugees from the areas for
which the Poles aud boIsheviki are
lighting. Travellers say it is the most
crowded city in eastern Europe The
population is estimated to have in
creased from 100000 to 100000 since
the world war began.
Everywhere there are officers and
soldiers. Military automobiles, trac-
tors and various other vehicles of war
traverse the streets all day and most
of the night The cafe life IS as
bright and gay as ever, but the res
taurants and theaters close at 10 D. m.
to save food, light and labor The ref
ugees from the war-stricken areas
began streaming into the city a year
ago and have been coming ever since.
hoping TO find food and places TO sleep.
The problem of providing for them has
baffied the city officials.
In the poorer districts easements
which for generations were used for
storage purposes have been used for
refugees sleeping quarters. In in
stances fifteen to twenty persons, and
even more, sleep on a basement floor,
on straw. Others have found shelter
in stables or in buildings intended for
schools. Many of these refugees are
women with children who have come
out of the east virtually without funds.
During the day these people are part
" supplied with food by the municipal
ity or some of the welfare organiza-
lions. Many exist only by begging.
Warsaw's tenements. always crowd
ed as New York's east side has been
for years, are jammed with humanity
as never before, and during the severe
winter weather, when there was an
epidemic of influenza here, old men
and women and children died by the
hundreds every day in this land OF
the poor.
City officials see no relief In sight
until warmer weather comes. when
they hope the people will gradually
begin leaving for the country to work
on farms.
