RED CROSS RESCUED
100000 FROM DEATH
Spent $1,20O,000 for Relief of
Famine Sufferers in China
Last Year.

To help overcome conditions Of acute
distress in five famine stricken prov
inces Of Northern China, where mil
lions Of persons were affe cted by an
unprecedented shortage Of food, the
American Red Cross during the last
fiscal year spent more than 81, 100000,
$1,0O0,O00 of which was contributed di-
recty by National Headquarters and
the remainder by various groups in
terested in the welfare Of China.
Through the wide relief operations
thus made possible it is estimated that
more than 100000 famine sufferers
were saved from starvation.
To the end that similar prompt re-
lief measures by the organization may
always be possible the Red Cross Is
asking continued support by the Amer
lean people by universal renewal OF
membership at the Annual Red Cross
Roll Call, November IL to "a.
The method Of relief employed by
the American Req Cross in its opera
tions In China was particularly effec
tive, for in addition to saving hundreds
of thousands of lives it provided China
with more than 900 miles Of permanent
roads that are sOrely needed to pre-
vent a recurrence of famine. At on'
time the Red Cross employed 74,00t
Chinese workmen, paying them in foo'
for themselves and dependents, thi
food being brought in from Manchurii
and elsewhere.

which we doubt and depreciate, the
workers could hardly have chosen
time Of more ranger to their inter-
ests and of less danger to the count
ry. It will cause great distress now,
but probably less than at any time
for at least fourteen years. Busine-
IS is at a low ebb. Every city in the
United States has great supplies of
food in storage. Retail coal yards
generally are full, and wholesale de-
mand for coal manufacturing in at
minimum. Winter stocks are in store
CT viii be within short time. A
large part of the wheat crop has been
moved, at least to primary centers,
and the corn is beginning to follow.
There is comparatively little demand
for steel.
Altogether, it appears that the
country could withstand strike at
the present moment if it could ever
stand a strike. And the railroad men
themselves are not immune to a
break in moral. Witness the outlaw
switchmens' strike of last year and
and its breaking. A strike now would
not be a walkout but a battle, which
might easily ruin both sides.
Enc lam last year had .a general
railroad strike, supported by the
transport workers and miners, and
settled shortly with loss TO the nation
and no gain to the strikes. This year
England had miners strike which
ileft the business Of the country post
rate and ruined the miners oganllst-
ion.
From the sentiment evident at the
convention Of the American miners
in indianapolis last week the present
agreements run out next spring Is
more than possibility. Are we tt
