VIENNA DEATH RATE
BECOMES. APPALLING
Condition of Children Even More
Narrowing, Declares Authority
on City'S Desperate Plight.

Five years of famine have resulted
in greatly increased mortality and
mOrbidity in Vienna which before the
war was counted as one Of the health
lest cities in Europe. Figures prepared
by DR.. Gustave Bohn. head of the
Vienna Health Department, show that
In 1913 the death rate was 1873 per
thousand. In 1918 the rate was 22.5
per thousand an increase OF more than
~ per cent.
Professor Hans Spell of the Uni
versity Of Vienna, says that "even
more terrible than the mortality sta
tistics are those referring to the con-
ditiOn of children and their mothers.
Owing to under-nourishment few moth
ers can nurse their babies, and the milk
shortage affects not only infants, but
all children In spite of al that has
been done to help. At Professor
Clemens Pirquet's clinic in the uni
versity some 54,S49 children were ex-
amined in 1918. Only 4,637 Of +hese
or about one-thsrteenth were passed as
skin good, fat good; 23,609 were pale
and thin, or very pale and very thin.
1.-THE health of these children shows
most disquieting features Skin disease,
rachitis and Barlow'S disease are rife.
1.-THE chief medical officer of Vienna
asks, What is going to. happen to these
under-fed children, in whose bodies the
germ Of tuberculosis is latent, when
they reach the twenties. at which time
1t becomes activeT"
To combat these conditions the Amer
lean Relief Administration of which
Herbert Hoover is chairman fed last
winter ia the city of Vienna some
100000 Of the destitute and under
Dourished children, supplying them
with q substantial meal of American
food. served In a number of large
kitchens opened for that purpose.
The conditions in Vienna are more
or less typical Of those in Poland and
other countries Of Central ind Eastern
Europe. Last year the Relief Admin
iStration was able TO reach some $780,
600 under-nourished children and this
winter the program calls for the feed

SOMETHING IN RUSSIA

The world ought to know by this
time that there is force in Russia, a
real force of some kind. 1t is force
strong enough to maintain its rule
over a vast people, in the face OF OPP
position within and without. SO far
it has refused to fulfill repeated
prophecies of crumbling. Whether
it rules by right or might, it rules. 1t
has spread it's ideas throughout the
world and become a menace to many
governments. 1t transformed a re-
bellious mob into an army that has
marched from victory to victory. In
diplomacy it has dazzled the eyes OF
statesmen and traders with profits
until some countries are on the verge
of recognizing the new regime.
Whether Russia today is inspired
by the strength of a great idea or of
a fanatical vision which will be dead
ashes when it has burned itself out;
whether there is behind it great
man Of the age grown from the for
mer New York East side agitator, or
only a shrewd opportunist able to
turn conditions to his own ends, a
force exists in Russia Because the
world shuts its eyes to this, it's SER
les of shifty compromises has only
involved it more and more. To rec
ognize that Russia is ruled strongly
and to understand it's rulers are the
first steps toward a solution Of the
Russian question. A blindfolded
world cannot deal successfully with
