Junior Red Cross
Wins Gratitude of
Europe's Children
DR.. Haynes Expects Its Work
Abroad To Be a Factor
in Maintaining Friend
ship Between Nations

DR.. Royal 8. Haynes, Of the Atlantic
Division Of the Red Cross, who has Just
resumed his medical work at Columbis
after year and half abroad, ex.
pressed the opinion yesterday that the
Junior Red Cross would prove on. Of
the greatest factors in the maintenance
Of friendly relations with Europe.
The gratitude Of the children of the
war-swept regions for the aid extended
them by the children Of this country
he explained, was the basis Of this
hope.
Bonds Unbreakable
Dr.. Haynes was associate director OF
the Red Cross Children's Bureau in
Paris for several months, and also
served as director Of Junior Red Cross
activities. He said:
Through it's sixteen or more relief
enterprises in behalf Of children in the
war-blasted lands, the Junior Red
popular opinion and is cementing good
will between rising generations abroad
and the rising generation at home.
II have brought back to America the
fervent assurances Of many thou
sands of parents and children that thei,
gratitude is of the everlasting kind
and / am profoundly impressed with
the belief that the bond of sympathy
which is being established between ou,
children and foreign children il un-
breakable.
"From Paris, Lille, Lyons, St: Eti-
Guise, Nantes and other places letters
have poured in, expressing the graft
tude of parents for care bestowed on
their little ones in another enterprise
of the Junior Red Cross which was to
take a thousand wretched children
from these towns into the country
and in one months time make new be-
ings of them.
Educates so Orphans
1.-THE Junior Red Cross has provided
for the education of sixty war or
phans. 1t has fifty French war waits
in vocational training schools. Al
Nieppe the poor children are receiving
noon lunches at school.
"There are 1000 children taken from
the cellars Of wrecked homes through
out the war-wasted area of France who
are being provided for. In fourteen
Belgian villages between $500 and
5000 children are receiving school
lunches. Two hundred little ones from
the lost villages Of Belgium-,those
completely wiped of the map by the
Germans-are being fed, clothed, shell
tered and schooled through the aid Of
the Junior Red Cross this winter.

tude Of the 500 little Bohemian starve-
lings who were taken into the Slovak-
ian mountains for two months out

Poland, where suffering is unspeaka,

Trouble in Syria Ends
French Statement Says Row II
Baalbek Was Small

PARIS, Jan. 3.-An official statement
concerning the recent incident at BaaI-
bek, Syria, which corrects the infor-
nation contained in telegram from
Cairo published in London, was issued
here.
What really happened. according to
direct information received in Paris,
was that French officer on December
Is entered Baalbek, which was occu-
pied by Emir Faycals troops, as lai-
son officer, and was obliged to leave
the place owing to the hostile attitude
Of the Arabs. He returned next day
to Baalbek with small detachment
sent by General Gouraud to insure his
safety. When about to enter the town
desultory firing was opened on the de-
tachment by about 200 natives scat
tered in the ravines by the road. One
French native soldier was wounded
Since that date there has been no
trouble in the vicinity of Baalbek.
Emir Faycal is still in Paris, where
friendly conversations relative to the
future organization of Mussulman
Syria are being carried on between
him and Premier Clemenceau.

quent thing when one goes to buy
book to hear from the seller that it
is no longer on the market. Among
others it is mentioned that the orig
inal editions Of the works of Humboldt,
chow can no longer be bought. Such
books, too, cannot now be brought out
| new except at great expense owing to
the high price Of paper and labor. And
all new books now coming upon the
market are printed on quite inferior
paper.
In view of these conditions the
prices Of secondhand books, especially
those of scientific character, have been
rising sharply for some months. A
writer in the "Frankfurter Zeitung'
fears that this whole movement will
have a permanent effect In narrowing
the circles of German scholars; thai
learning will become more and more
the privilege of the few rich men VIII
are able to afford the luxury Of ex

however, the proposal to prohibit tn,
export of books. He thinks that for

retaliatory measures; also that
would not be possible to maintain
sufficiently close watch at the from
tiers to prevent the carrying out o
German books. He suggests that tn
German libraries be supplied wit
enough money to buy duplicate copie
of such works Of value as are still
obtainable.
