AMERICAN IN SOVIET JAIL
SENDS PLEA FOR RELEASE
Red Cross Worker Claims He Was
Newfoundland When Cap
tured by Reds.

By the Associated Press.
RIGA, April 2s.-Capt. Emmet Kill
patrick, the American Red Cross
worker captured by the the bolshe-
Wiki in the Crimea last October. has
sent an appeal to hte government in
Washington to procure his release
where he now is confined. The ap-
peal was brought out Of Russia by
Capt. Marion C. Cooper. the American
Kosciuszko squadron ofdcer. who es-
capped from a soviet prison and
reached Riga . few days ago.
warded to the United States, Capt.
Fitzpatrick sets forth that he Is being
held prisoner against all the princi-
pies Of international law. as he was
non -combatant Red Cross ofacer
many miles behind the front when he
was captured.
According to the American author
tiles in the Baltic, Capt. Kileatrick
comes the nearest to being an official
prisoner of any American being held
in Russia. His own efforts with the
Moscow authorities to obtain his re-
missaries declared the American gov
eminent must request his release.
Fitzpatrick contends. in his appeal.
that he Is not like Americans who
entered Russia at their own FISK, az
he was on Red Cross mission ap-
proved by the government and, there-
fore, had q semi oficial status.
Frequently according to Capt.
Cooper. Kilpatrick was hailed before
counter-revolutionar committees and
given the third degree. on the accus-
alton Of being q secret agent. This.
together with the antipathy Of the
soviet government toward tho
American Red Cross, due to the un-
favorable report on the Russian ait
uation made in May. last by Col. Ed
ward ". Ryan. American Red Cross
commissioner to the Baltic states,

BOOST RICE AS FOOD
BY ADVERTISING DRIVE

NEW ORLEANS, May 2s.-The
Newspaper advertising campaign con-
Quoted by the Associated Rice Millers
of America has increased the con-
sumption of RICE In the United States
from 2.47 pounds per capita to z
pounds. This remarkable result is
announced in the ffrst annual report
OF Frank A. Godchaux. president of
the organization.
The first step taken by this conn
pany was the advertising of rice,
with recipes" says Mr.. Godchaux In
his report This newspaper adver-
tising campaign covered a period ex-
tending from November, 1870, through
December. 1920. Through this medium
we were able to reach 40 per cent Of
the total population OF tho United
States. In connection with our ad-
vertising. the newspapers carried con-
siderable editorial comment and other
articles through which the industry
as . whole has benefited to a great
extent.
as result the consumption of
rice commencing with the period of
August I, 1920, and ending on the last
day Of January, 1921, exceeded the do
nestle consumption from August.
1919. 70 August, 1920. The consump-
ton since March 1, 1921. has Increased
