 Western Europe has no conception of the extent of the Russian misery Of all the white peoples in the world. the Russians alone are capable of such suffering as they have already passed through. The fertile Volga country resembles a desert. Where in former days there bloomed a yer itable paradise of corn, one can now trade a good horse for half a pound of wheat"
 Hand in hand with hunger goes plague. Cholera and pest, never en- tirely removed in Russia, are taking a terrible toll. Try to visualize this misery in a country which in war and revolution lost the majority of it's doctors and has only negligible quan- titles of drugs and medicinal stuffs left For years all operations in Russia have had to be made with out the use of anesthetics. There are whole communities where not a single fever thermometer can be found.

 Harden's proposal for a general stair to be headed by Herbert Hoo yer and Marshal Foch, to command an army of a million workers for Russian relief and reconstruction, eX- clusively reported in these dispatches has caused widespread discussions in Europe. He now follows it with 8 warning that the present American relief action is but a "drop in the bucket
