100000 to date. including flour, cloth
ing and medical supplies. the annual
report of the Near East Relief, in
corporated by Congress August 6,
1919, was filed with Congress today by
Charles V. Vickery, general secretary
of the relief organization. The report
includes an auditors statement by
firm of chartered accountants, whose
lraveling auditors in the field check
on all expenditures by the Near East
Relief. \ balance on hand of S36I.219
is reported.
AS to the accomplishments of the or
Ganization, Mr.. Nickery's report
shows III American and Canadian re-

1t is reported that approximately
, 2.90.490 Armanians are still living
out of pre-war population of about
4,0O0, 600. In parts of CilicIa alone
it is stated that 65 per cent of the
Armenian Christian population per
ished from starvation during the
war, while in the whole of Syria not
less than % per cent perlshed from
the same cause. 1t is estimated that
had it not been for the American aid
furnished through the Near East Re
lief fully half of the present Ar
menian population of the near east
would have Succumbed.
AIn regard to the work among the
children, Mr.. Eickrey says in the re-
port:
"A few millions of dollars wisely
expended at this time in the support.
/. education and molding of these young
lives will be worth vastly more to
the world than billions OF dollars that
otherwise may later be required in
suppressing warfare and strife. This
distinctiveiy humanitarian relief
work as an expression of brother
hood should help to mark the begin
ming of a new era of peace and inter-
racial good Will in the near east.

PREPARING FOR WAR.
.Getting q. S. Army Ready for Any
Crisis, Says Wainwright.

' NEW YORK. April 25.-The best
brains of the War Department are
working to the end that the Ameri-

hew Wainwright, assistant secretary
OF war, declared here in an address
before members of the 5th Division
at their first reunion since demobili-
cation
'In Washington" he said I'VE

PUBLIC LIBRARIES

One of the best habits TO
cultivate is the library
habit. Every one cannot
own a library, but every
city government is under
obligation to its citizens
particularly its boys and
girls-to provide them with
adequate facilities for OBJ
tanning and reading good
books.
Libraries promote civic
as we'll as individual en-
lightenment. Citizens who
read good books are never
a liability to their govern
ment.
There are too few pub-
lie libraries in the District
of Columbia, and there is
too small a force to handle
even the present, demands
made upon them. An
enormous appropriation is
not necessary. but every
expenditure for public
library purposes will yield
large returns.

fields, the distribution of experimental
work and the performance of many
other functions which are in need of
