The proposed stadium would be
used for all varieties OF football con-
tests, and would be available when
large out-of-town teams were
brought here for games, which Is to
be undertaken as soon as there is
good place where all spectators can
be given a seat.
Those who are talking over the
matter and who are really serious
in the proposed erection OF a
football stadium are Of the opin-
ion that the cost of the stadium
would be paid off within a few
years, for there are many foot
ball lovers in Memphis who
never go to q local game on ac-
count of the poor seating facilt-
ties that have been in evidence
during past seasons.

many of whom are completely desti-

Experts predict the suffering next
winter will be tremendous unless aid on

States and friendly European nations.
The country must import as much grain
as last year-300,000 tons-although it
is without means to 60 into foreign
market for even small part of this
amount. Therefore, experts say other
nations must come to the rescue with
extensive credits for breadstuffs und
continue the relief work, such as feeding
the children without diminution. Woolen
clothing, also, is badly needed.
The wheat fields of the entire sec
tion north of the Vistula and along the
eastern border are swept clean due to
the advance and retreat of the bolshev-
Xxi. All that is left is barely sufficient
for the farm population and seeding.
Towns in this section must be provided

Frosts last fall reduced the planted
area to 30 per cent Of last years total.
and dry weather recently prevented the
