Explaining why the sections OF
China not stricken by famine were
unable to relieve the starvation dis
tricts. Mr. Glines said: China Is
largely an agricultural nation Nine
ty per cent. OF the population lives
on the tiny farms into which the
country Is divided. The Chinese work
their land to the limit but they can
not raise more than enough to feed
themselves. Each district can raise
barely enough food to support Its own
people. That In why the prosperous
provinces have been able to do so
little for the famine stricken ones.
They have not the food to send.
THE crops in North China have
failed since 1919. The people have
been unable to get more than scraps
of food from other parts of China
they have been unable to get much
from outside because food has been
high priced all over the world. They
have tried to move to better districts
where they could raise crops but
such districts are so far and they~have
had such poor resources that they
have died like flies on the way.
