AMERICA MUST FEED
and CLOTH CHILDREN
OF POLAND IN WINTER

LONDON, Nov 9.-One of the after
maths of the Polish-Soviet war is that
Americans will be called upon to feed
and clothe more than 100000 Polish
children this winter through the
American relief administration. Up
to the time of the latest outbreak OF
hostilities, restitution had been so re-
duced that the relief administration
officials believed that Poland, with
the organization the Americans had
perfected. would be able to carry on
the work after this autumn. That IS
considered impossible now and prepa-
rations are under way for caring for
as many children as during the dark
days of last winter.
This decision came after receipt In
London of a complete survey of the
country, begun Immediately after the
bolshevik were driven back. Trained
observers report that the Poles them
selves have not painted the picture
black enough After two armies had
fought over the ground there was lit
tie left for the children, they report,
and each requested immediate ship
ment of food and clothing. AS far as
possible, distributing agents of the adj
ministration are complying with these
requests.
Distribute Food
The organization, by which about
9,0O0,0 900 worth of food and clothing
was distributed in Poland in 16
months at cost Of approximately
$4,000, is virtually intact. 1t included
between $4,000 and $4,000 Poles whose
services are paid for by Poland but
who worked under the direction of a
few American administrative officers.
The Poles also pay for transportation
from the ships, warehousing and dis,
tribution. In addition, they supply all
flour received by them through a
$500, 900 credit granted them by the
Grain Corporation.
Although the distributing organiza-
ton was considera bly, disarranged
during the recent fighting. officials
here say they can get into working
order again very quickly after rail
road repairs have been completed.

ITALIAN WORKERS BUY
wine; GET BREAD FREE
fBy Associated Prcss)

ROME, Nov. 9.-Professor Ugo An
coma, formerly Under Secretary OF
Transportation in the Italian caplnet'
has Just made public statement that
while the Italian government has
spent more than 100000, 5000 year
for bread for the people, the Italian
workers have spent 100000 a
year on wine alone.
The governments expenditure for
bread has resulted from its undertake
ing to pay the difference between the
cost of producing wheat and the price
of bread In consequence of this the
Italian workers have been able to buy
bread at the rate of one Ira for each
kilogram of 2.20 pounds.
Professor Ancona says that while
the workers refuse to pay more than
this, they have no objection 10 paying
| 4 or lire for a quart of wine, which

tinue to supply over $1,000, 100000 an
nually for bread when the people do
not grudge s90o.O00.000 year for the
luxury of wine.
The professor advocates that the
Italians should eat less bread and pay
what it costs and that they should
drink less wine and export more OF
it, SO that the profit on wine would
help to pay for importation of bread.
The amount of land given over to
wheat production in Italy greatly de-
creased last year. The disastrous re-
suit is that the imports are increasing
daily.
