SEES FAMINE WAVE

Russian Professor Gidon Says

REvAL, via London, Aug. 30.-It is re-

"The effects of the famine are felt

The Bolshevik newspaper Economic
Life fears that It will be impossible to
provision the famine stricken districts,
owing to the collapse of the transporta-
ton system. Eeighty-five per cent of
the cars need repairs. and some are
without roofs and sides so that cargoes
are lost along the journey. Even Mos
cow cannot be supplied with fifth of
the bread and potatoes needed.
Moscow has an elaborate plan for
evacuating 100000 children to other
provinces. says the Pravdd. There has
been a fatal delay in supplying seed to
the Vo!ga districts. only one-fifth of the
necessary quantity having been coll

COUNCIL OFLEAGUE
TO AID MINORITIES
VIII See Treaties With Hun
gary and Rumania Are
Carried Out.
BIZ the Associated Press.

| GENEVA. Aug. 30.--By a resolution
adopted by the Council of the League of
Nations to-day that body will assume
control OF stipulations In the treaties
with Hungary and Rumania regarding
the rights of minorities In territories
which changed their sovereignty. This
was the only definite work accomplished
at to-day's session, and the council ad-
journed until Thursday to permit the
members time to study the Silesian
question and exchange views privately.
The meeting of the armament COM
mittee also has been deferred until
Thursday.
Chief interest In the work of the coun-
ell centres for the moment upon tho
international court OF justice, which
is regarded as promising better results
than any other action of the league
thus far. Speculation has begun as to
the probable choice by the council and
assembly of the eleven judges from
among about 100 names thus far sub
mitted.
AS geographical considerations will
enter into the election, 1t is generally
assumed the Western Hemisphere will
get two and perhaps three judges. one
Spanish speaking from South or Central
America, and one each from the United
States and Canada. Great Britain is
granted one for the United Kingdom
and another for the colonies, besides
Canada
France will receive one, the Scan
danavian countries one. the Slav coun-
tries one and the German speaking
countries one. while provision must also
be made for the Asiatic States. China,
Japan and Siam each having nomi-
mated two candidates.
South Americans thus far nominated
are Senior Alvarez. Chile; Ruy Bar
bosa and Dr. Rodrigo Octavio, Brazil ;
Senior Ortonez, Uruguay, and Senior
Gonzales Argentina. Cuba has nomi-
mated Dr. Antonio S. De Bustanente,
Hayti has named Nonomy and verono.
while Panama's candidate Is Senor

The British candidates are Lord Fen

WHITES TRY TO GET
AGENTS IN RUSSIA
Want TO Send Then, Back At
toched to Relief Work.

Special Gable to THE NEw yoRK HEaALD.
CopD71Ght, 1891, by THE NEW YoEK HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau,
Paris, Aug. 80.
The White Russians in the capitals OF
western Europe are now trying to get
their emissaries back into Russia under
the guise of interpreters, food distribu-
ters and technical advisers attached to
the Hoover and other relief organiza-
tions.
The International Famine Relief Com
mittee delegated by the Supreme Council
TO effect a coordination or relief efforts
met at the Quai d'Orsay this afternoon
and decided to send an investigating
commission to Russia Immediately. No
action was taken on the suggestion made
by the White Russians. This may come
up Tomorrow. however, when the dele
gates, who will go to Russia are to be
appointed. Representations along this
line have been made TO all the allied ma
tions recently, but they have not met
with cordial response.
The general impression Is that the
Soviets would scent possible interference
with their politics once representatives
OF the Cadet, Royalst or Social Demo
crat groups were allowed to cross the
frontier.
The attention Of the delegates was
centred on how best to prevent over
tapping and how to conserve the work on
q strictly humanitarian basis which 1t is
fully recognized. must be the basis for all
Russian relief. Although Walter Lyman
brown, director of the American Relief
administration, who attended the meet
.ig as an observer, was not questioned
by his colleagues at to-day's session his
name was first proposed by the British
as a member of the subcommittee, which
will suggest the members of the In
vest,gating commission.
He is still without orders as to whether
to appoint an American a member OF
such q committee but his presence to-
day is taken as an indication that Secre-
tary Hoover will work In closest har-
nony with the European nations, espe-
cially as 1t Is realized that the bulk OF
the relief must come from the United
States, France. England and Italy, the
smaller Powers merely facilitating trans
portation with occasional food supplies.

mission starts work immediately. But
what will happen once they are inside
the frontier? The Bolsheviki will not
make any blunders at the beginning and
will provide every facility to receive the
foodstuffs. Then when sufficiently large
quantities have been brought in they
will discover excuses to delay the dis
tribution until the future supplies for
their troops have been assured"
The same informant qualified Mr.
Browns attitude regarding Russia's
railroads as being too optimistic. Al
though the American pointed out that
the Peds We're able to transport 1.500,-
900 troops against Poland last year the
White Russians point out trat the relief
supplies must be sent TO regions where
railroads have not been operating for
many months owing TO the coal short
age. 1t is likely that Poland and France
will be called on to furnish the fuel for
relief train schedules, both countries
having an unexpected surplus of fuel
owing to last winters mildness

go.iations were on he often saw Winter
around the market.
+ did you see Winter talking with
Fechtman?"
"Fechtman said Winter called on

A little later. when Lewis decided to

the witness said and made a payment
OF $3.50 to avoid trouble. The payment
OF $1,000 was made. Lewis said, on April
10. the same day Luger got the third

"Luger claimed he belonged to n
political organization and through that

Money Paid over mt a Bank.

The transaction was then put through.
When settlement was made Michel paid
IIibbard $4,000 commission in the form
OF six $500 bills The money was paid
over at a bank.
What did you do next ?"

OMalley's office"
"Did you have a conversation with
Mr.. OMalley?"
'I did"
'what took place in that converse
tion?"
Il simply told him that we had signed
the contracts and ! had received my
commission. and I thought he was en-
titled to three of the six bills showed
him"
did you give them TO hin?"
II did"
"yaraa $500 bills?"
'Yes. sir"
Anything else said in the conversa-
tion?"
mo, we had a general talk"
LAS two business men might?'
"Yes, sir. and smoked a couple OF
good cigars
Senator Walker asked:
THE first mention OF any money be-
tween you and Mr.. O'Malley came from,
your"
Yes, sir"
And il was, as think understo's
you to say, before that that o'Malley
said that under no circumstances would
he put the screws on the market
stands"
"Yes"
Then, as a matter of fact this deal
with the telephone company had moth
ing to do with the market"
mot in my opinion"
TT was your idea to make them pay
Tor it?"
Yes. sir"
And you offered to split this commits
sion with man whom you had never
met before?"
That Is right"
Elon r. Brown, senior counsel for the
committee. asked:
"why did you ask the Commissioner
II he was going TO put the screws on
Michel"
Il suppose on account of the publicity
there was about stands being taken
away at that time. also that Michel was
afraid his stand would be taken away"
Ibid Mr.. Michel tell you he was
'afraid Mr. O'Malley would take his
stands away from him, before YOU went
there?"
II don't think he put 1t that way he
said there was so much talk about
stands being taken away at the time
that he feared something"
