ATHENS, Greece. April 11.-American
relief commissioners have learned
that the horrible conditions of the
Greek colonists at their camp. Kali
amaia. near Saloniki. are still con-
tinuing, though called to the atten-
tion Of the Greek government long
ago. These people are not refugees.
but colonists Of the Greek race per-
suaded by tho venizelos government
to come from the Caucasus. which had
been their home for many years, for
the purpose Of Hellenizing Turkish
Thrace.
Thirty-seven thousand Greeks have
Been brought into Thrace and 10000

and unclothed. The camp contractor
asserts that he cannot furnish sup
plies because he has not been paid
by the Greek government
Naked Children Dying.
Americans saw naked children dying
from starvation there and found that
typhus was raging with no sanitation
to fifty deaths daily. Col. Olds of the
Red Cross protested to the Athens
government, which promised to
remedy the situation. but was eva
sive in its answer.
The Red Cross sent large quantities
ef supplies. which were received on the
promise of the government to pay freight
charges, but when the goods arrived
at Saloniki the transportation officials
refused to permit them to be landed
until the charges were paid. The stu
alton was not remedied by the Greek
Red Cross or the Greek Patriotic So
ciety. which was incorporated for the
purpose of public benevolence. The
Americans hope to relieve the distress
despite all difficulties.
Lavish Spending I'm Athens.
In the face Of this situation money
has been lavishly spent in Athens. where
the government paid out several hun
dred thousand drachmas for the mar
riage ceremonies Of Greek princess
and the crown prince of Rumania. She
received dowry of 100000 drachmas
(ss0. .0o0) by vote Of parliament Queen
Olga received salary Of 100000
