RED CROSS RELIEF
IN CENTRAL EUROPE

But for timely assistance Of the
American Red Cross during the last
year, large proportion Of the 10000
600 population Of the Balkan States
might have starved or persisted from
disease or exposure. Six million dol
lars worth Of food, clothing and medi-
cal supplies have been sent to the Bal
kans-Roumania, Bulgaria, Albania,
Montenegro, Serbia, Bosnia and Greece
since the beginning of Red Cross re-
lief operations in Central Europe,
while millions of dollars worth Of food
alone has been sent to the needy IN
these states.
The money expended by the Red
Cross In this stricken portion Of Eu.
rope has been used to set up hospitals,
orphanages, dispensaries, mobile medi-
cal units and to help In the general re-
construction Of devastated areas. Amer.
fican tractors and other farming nipple.
ments have been sent to the agricul.
tural regions where aid has been CIV

BY the last Of this year probably
all American Red Cross agencies ad-
ministering relief In Central Europe
will have withdrawn. By that time, II
is believed, the people will have ap.
preached a normal state OF living and
will be able through their own agencies
which the Red Gross has helped set
up to provide tor themselves.

that recent heavy rains which have
fallen throughout the hurley district

age to the hurley tobacco crop to the
extent that spots on leaves are en-

have speeded up the growth of the

TOBACCO RAIsERS
GATHER SATURDAY
Big Meeting Called For Court
House At 10 O'clock For
Discussion

| There is expected to be large
attendance at the meeting of the
hurley tobacco growers in Rich
mond Saturday, when a special
meeting has been called by Sam
Amster, of Red House, for the
purpose of discussing the situa-
ton and selecting delegates to the
big meeting called for Lexington
on the 18th.
The meeting here will be call
ed to order at 10 o'clock at the
court house and will be attended
by all, it is expected, who are in
terested in the raising, protection
land caring for tobacco generally.
There was a meeting held ip Lex
ington recently at which a num-
Der of important question came
up relative to the crop this and
next year. These will be vital
points at issue at the meeting
Saturday, as we'll as the Lexing-
ton meeting.
The matter of raising tobacco
next year has been extensively
discussed here and elsewhere and
this will be taken up at the local
meeting after which delegates
to the Lexington meeting Will be
selected. They will, according to
reports. be instructed along the
lines of decision reached at the
Richmond meeting. The Madi-
son county representation will be
large since this county is one of
the most important in the state
when the tobacco subject is con-
sidered. The meeting will be
held in the court room on the first
floor. There will be number of
speakers who will voice their
opinion regarding the question of
cutting out the 1921 crop.
Circulars asking opinions on
this question have been issued to
the producers of this and other
counties, and the attention of all
have been called to the meeting
hence a large attendance.

seek QUARTERS
FOR DIRABIED MEN

Reports from the government have
been received by representatives Of,
the Red Cross and universities of
Richmond and other parts of the
state to the effect that there is be-
ing an extensive response made by
the ex-service men regarding the free
school privileges, and thousands of
veterans are preparing to take advan-
tage of it.
1t is estimated that in Richmond,
if accommodations can be secured, 100
men at least will be enrolled at the
Eastern Normal. This is one Of the
report to be made by Representative
Jackson, who spent some time here
investigating the situation. Officials
of the institution report they would
be able to take care of this number
of men if they could find sleeping
quarters. The assistance of Home
Red Cross Secretary Stone Norman
has been solicited, and the latter is
making a canvass with the NEW to
getting q report in to Washington
headquarters as soon as possible.
The number of men coming to Rich
mond will depend upon the number
for which accommodations can be Sc
cured. The work is proving more ex-
tensive than the government antiei-
pated some time ago and special
agents are now in the field seeking
aid for the men in various ways, in
having accommodations located. A
shortage of accommodations in Rich
mond in the way of oroms is a rec
ognized fact. However, the effort is
as possible. The men are all on the
pension or special compensation list
and Independent financially.
