BIG CROWD HEARS
RUSSELL F. SMITH

WHITING, Ind. Oct. 1s.-The Whit
ing democratic campaign was opened
to a crowd that packed Frankowskis
hall in the second ward Monday night.
drizzIing rain did not dampen the
ardor OF the crowd that crammed the
entrance to the hall and extended out
into the street, and although it was
advertised as a second ward meeting.
they came from all parts OF the city.
The speakers were Russell F. Smith,
candidate for mayor; T. Joseph Sulli-
van. candidate for city Judge; John "A
Tokarz, for clerk; Mrs. Edna Doolittle.
for treasurer; John J. Duffy and Steve
Kaminski, candidates for alderman at

center Of the stage.
A large number OF women were
present Mr. Smith dweit briefly upon
the issues Of the campaign promising
economy ana efficiency IN ali oepaI l
ments o: the city administration.
He said in part; This campaign has
been clean so far and free from per-
sonalities. and II is my purpose that
it shall be kept that way. as far as l
am able TO keep it so. and The charac-
ter OF no candidate shall be attacked.
The big question, in which all other
questions in this campaign are includ-
ed, is whether or not we are to have
a change from the system which has
been tried for eight years for If an
administration is to continue indeh-
nitely, it takes on the aspects of po-
sition for the life of the officials in It.
but not only that. all of the men hold
ing appointments under it."

FOR THE STARVING CHILDREN.

The visit in Albuquerque yesterday of Colonel
Bronson NJ. Cutting, chairman for New Mexico of
the European Relief Council makes timely the fol-
lowing account of the present death rate in Austria
which is without parallel in history, according to
the Vienna Arbeiterzeitung
Due largely to undernourishme because of the
food shortage, deaths exceed births by per cent
age of the deaths come from diseases not directly
attributable to manutrition.
Some days ago." the Arbeiterzeitung declares,
1.-The last statistical weekly report of the Vienna
Town Council published 1t shows mortality
increasing from month to month In the first week
in February, there were 741 deaths and 11O2 in
the last,
Influenza may have been a slight factor but
death from disease was greatly increased by lack
of proper food. Winter is approaching and
the death rate increases daily. Especially among
children conditions threatening"
DR.. Clemens Pirquet, the eminent child special
list, formerly OF Johns Hopkins University, in a
letter to Herbert Hoover chairman of the European
Relief Council made the following statement:
LAS economic conditions at present in Aus
tra and without big change in peace conditions,
the next harvest will bring farther than four
or five months and the condition Of the next winter
may be worse than this"
Vienna's child population up to the age of IS
is about $40 600 and only $500 of these are getting
sufficient nourishment. To avert widespread star

among Polish, Czecho- Slovakian and Hungarian,

AS AEsOP MIGHT HAVE WRITTEN 1T.

Once upon a time there a Stately Gander
who conceived deep friendship for OK, who,
in turn, became quite fond of his Feathered Com
panion.
Frequently the strange pair would walk
through the Fields the Gander would say to the OK:
Brother OK, l often wonder at unequal
Friendship. You are powerful and l so weak
that feel l. shall be able to recompense you
for the Protection that your simple Presence af-
fords me"
"Grieve not" the Ok replied, mo Creature knows
when he may be obliged to accept assistance from
his punest Friend"
1t so came about that mischievous Boys,
throwing stones at the OK, put out both of his Eyes

And to this day the strange pair may be seen
slowly going to the Pond, where the Stately Gander
waits for his sghtess Friend to slake his thirst,
and then leads him back to the Pasture.
Moral: No creature is wholly lost who still has
a Friend.
