RELIEF DEPOTS ARE HANDLING THOUSANDS
 OF STARVING WAITS

London. January S- (By Reciprocal News Service, )--Kno that great sums of money are being sent from the United States. as well as from England. for relief work in Vienna, the Recipro- cal News Service requested a special correspondent in Vienna to report on CD how the money Is being spent and @ whether the Austrians arc trying to help. themselves. The following has been received;
 The Friends Emergency and War Vic tims Relief committee Is feeding all Viennese children under years of age who need aid. American relief cares for them above that age. Tn every dis trict in the city the Friends have a depoC where once week the parents can come and purchase flour, cocoa condensed milk fat and cereals at a nominal price. Every child who re- ceives these rations has been medically examined and found under nourished, and once every month he is re-eXam- ined in order 10 make sure that he really gets She food and benefits by it. This winter the Friends are feeding 45,- 900 children every week within the city.
 There are now 10 depots in existence in four big districts of lower Austria. Medical examinations have taken place in 26 towns and villages under nearly as many doctors. Between 5000 and 5000 children are now being fed. Ulti- mately it IS thought the numbers will reach 10000 The people are nearly all working class and their destitution is largely due to the factories either not working at all or working only part time, owing to the lack of coal and raw material

GREAT BR|TA|N'S
 b|G NAVY POLICY
 HARSHLy ATTACKED
One Paper Describes Proposed Plan to 0utbuild United States as "Sheer LunaCy"-0th-
 CTS Equally CauStic
RY Associatcd Pres.

London, January T.-Any attempt by Great Britain to build big navy m competition with the United States would be absolutely disastrous" say some of the leading weekly periodicals of Lon don, in commenting on the naval esti- mates for the current year As presented
 in the House of Commons these esti- mates were fixed at e90S72 S00
 The Spectator condemns the post-war recrudescence of "navalism" under the caption, "The Naval Skin Game" Against whom should We be huilding2'' it asks. "Ether against America or Japan. We should not be building against both for an flliance between them against Great Britain is inconceivable.
 "We want to say most emphatically that in our opinion a competition with America would be absolutely disastrous. We hope the nation will never consent to it.
 Any suggestion of two keels to one naval policy as directed against the United States the Spectator dismisses as ludicrous, and it underscores the phrase: We must not form our policy on the possibility of a war with America" If ever we joined with Japan against Amer ica, we should have sounded the knell of the British empire"
 The Nation, which brands big naval ism as sheer laaacy, also strongly op- poses naval competition with the United States which it says will have a navy superior to the British in 1924
 We cannot successfully enter on a shpbuilding competition with America which has twice our population and four times our resources, this paper says, and it continues
 "Our navalists have put another nail in the coffin of the League of Nations. Unless this policy fs repudated at once. it will do more than anything else to keep America out of the league, to m- pei her to a political and economic is- olation. developing her full powers of military and naval defense. drawing the South American states into a Pan-Amer- icanism fatal to the larger international ism. and depriving the broken countries of Europe of the economic and financial aid that they badly need. and that only the trade and credit of America can supply. That way lies neither peace, nor economic recovery. nor financial saliva tion"
 The Outlook. which apologzes for fin flicting on the reader the painful subject of. an 4Anglo-American war which is rightly not considered thinkable by most Of us,'' considers that under existing con- ditons of mine and submarine warfare, the British fleet, were it twice as big as it is, could not venture into American waters, nor could the Americans, with thrice the number of dreadnoughts they possess. venture to approach the British coasts"
 Incidentally. the Saturday Review puts in strong plea for the sale of the West Indies by Britain to the United States. in order to reduce British indebtedness to America, without sacrificing British trade interests.

bill will even pass the Senate prior to March 4. It has a surprising number of friends, however, even among those who do not believe in federal interference with private affairs. Several southrn senators this afternoon, while withhold ing expression of future intention. did go on record as in favor of doing some thing to relieve the situation
 Senator Underwood made no comment, save to express opinion that the Dill should have been considered by the proper committee. He was apparently not~alarmed by danger of it's passage.
 Chairman LaFollette summoned today as first witnesses Chairmen Clark and Thompson of the interstate commerce and federal trade commissions, respec- lively, and Dr. George Otis Smith, di- rector of the geological survey.
 These three bodies, under the bill, would be required to function in connec- tion with the proposed coal regulation system, although final power would be lodged with the President to fix prices and to resort to government distribution whenever an emergency is declared to exist.
 Mine operators and coal wholesalers will be heard later according to the committees announcement during the three days which will be devoted to talk ing evidence.

MOROS ID BOLT
 CHRISTIAN RULE
Religious Factions in Philip pines May Develop Real War
 Among Native Tribes
By Associated Press

Honolulu. T. H., January 17.--Moros of the Philippines never will submit to Fili- pino Christian domination, and further trouble between them and native con- stabulary forces in Jolo is to be expected, according to E. Finley Johnson, associate justice of the supreme court of the Phil ippines.
 Justice Johnson. accompanied by Mrs. Johnson, was a passenger on the army transport Sherman en route from Manila fer San Francisco. from whence he ex- pected to go direct to Marion, O., for a conference with President-elect Harding regarding conditions in the Philippines.
 ''The Moros are beginning to realize that the Americans no longer are looking after them. said Justice Johnson. ''Thc trouble down there is just beginning. There will be more of it. and plenty of it. What the Moros want is American administration by Americans, and unless they get it they are going to cause trouble

Washington, January Special )-The Calder bill providing government super vision of the coal mines of the United States will be reported to the Senate Thursday by the Senate committee on manufacturing. Hearings will begin to- morrow.
 The bill was referred to the committee on manufacturing, because, by that com rnittee, it was assured of a friendly re- ception. The committee on interstate and foreign commerce, which should have had the bill, is not regarded as a friendly committee.
 The measure is opposed by the Ma tional Coal association. which has head quarters in Washington, but has not aroused the fear of individual owners from Pennsylvania West Virginia, Ten nessee and Alabama. Very few protests have reached the Senate.
