Half Million Russians are Starving in Samara District;
 Send Urgent Appeal for Aid

London, Sept. 6-Ha1f a million Russians are threatened with immedi- ate death from starvation in the Sa- mara district unless aid is rushed quickly, said an urgent "S. O. S-'' re- ceived here today from the American relief workers, at Moscow.
 The telegram was forwarded to Walter L. Brown, chief of the Ameri- who is at present in Geneva.
 The message asks that food sup plies be rushed with extra speed, say ing that the situation in Samara is more serious than was first reported
 Forty per cent of the inhabitants had fled from the villages visited and the remainder were preparing to move" said the message. Half a million are in direct want. Every hour counts"
 Samara is the name of a govern ment or province on the Volga River in the heart of the famine zone. How ever, 1t is but one of about ten dis tr1cts ravaged by starvation.
 Syzran, Russia, Sept 6--(By A.P.) There was time when Syzran was the most colorful city along the Volga but that time is gone. Today it is crowded with dust-begrimmed peas- ants, who group themselves into gray masses in their search for food There was a time when the air was filled with a perfect babel of tongues-the languages of the KaImucks, Mongols, Tartars, Chinese and Russ1ans-but tthe crowds that throng the streets of the city at present are mute. Even the laughter of children has been si- fenced in the despair that has settled over these tens of thousands who sit crossing themselves and wait for what seems to be the inevitable.
 Pictures of misery seen here are duplicated in Samara, Simbirsk, Sar- atoH, Tzaritzin and every other city (Continued on Page Six)
