NO CAUSE FOR ALARM.

Farmers need moi, get alarmed over the
great increase in our food imports during
the last fiscal year. The increase of
$3.50, 1000, 900 is largely matter Of higher
prices, and most Of the imported food is
of sorts not grown in this country, or
grown in very insufficient quantities. Tho
details for the IL months are not out yet,
but in II months there was an increase Of
s47a $50, ,030 in -four food iterns--cocoa, in
cluding chocolate; coffee, fruits and sugar.
The fruits are mostly bananas and few
others that don't grow in this country, or
are raised but little.
There were increases in breadstuffs and
meats and dairy products, but these are
relatively small items. When corn was
exceedingly high here there were ship
ments from Argentina. Food exports
fell off heavily because Europe took less
grain and meats from us last year than
II did while there were huge armies in
the field Philadelphia Record.

When the revolution broke out in Rus

Later, barrier Of fire marking the bat

hausted and hunger and war horrors

crnment, appealed to for help, passed it
on to the Red Cross.
Group after group was taken over by
the Red Cross, which established col
onies in western Siberia and had nppar-
entity solved the problem Of caring for
its charges when the battleline swaved
eastward and the Bolsheviki cap
tured town after town. Groups of the chill
dren barely escaped capture, Finally il
was decided to take them to VIadivostok.

PONzI SAYS He LOST
HEAVILY BY FORGERY
Charges Notes Were Raised to Ten
Times Face Value and Were
Cashed in Rush.

Boston, Mass, Aug. 1S.-Charlos POM
charged yesterday that he had been rob.
bed of thousands of dollars by forgery
He declared that hundreds of his notes
had been raised To ten times their face
value. He charges that notes for Sl0f
were raised to 81 900 and notes for S5C
TO $500.
Ponzi asserts that although every
precaution was taken to guard against
such trickery, such as inscribing the
amounts into the notes with check pro-
tectors, and that although special care
was exercised during the run to prevent
such notes being accepted, clever swind-
lers did in the rush get some of them
by He is unable as yet, he says, to
give any accurate estimate of the
amount Of his loss by this means.
Ponzi also charges that some of his
own agents We're in on the game and prof
tied to a large extent. One of these agents
is now fugitive from justice.
Ponzi contends that these forgeries
to a large extent account for the dis
crepancy between his estimate of $780,
600 liabilities and the estimates of the
Federal auditor and State Attorney Cen
eral Allen. The Federal auditors figures
of 100000 are more than 100 per cent
larger than those of the State Attorney
General, who said today that he figures
Ponzi's liabilities at s3,000,0O0 with sew
eral hundred letters from creditors yet
TO be tabulated
The turning of notes in person has
practically ceased, although the At
torney General believes that there ar,
still several hundred out, held by persons
who prefer to pocket their loss rather
than admit that they had been gullible
enough TO go into the scheme.
Internal Revenue agents raided Ponzi's
home in Lexington yesterday and seized
some 100'gallops of Italian wines. 1t
was limited that the raid and seizure
were only q pretext for a search for any
hidden cash, securities or data that
would be valuable in the Government s
case against Ponzi. Every nook and cor
ner was gone into, Mrs. Ponzi assist
