Nothing this man can do with his
assistants can destroy the plague OF

for even that effort, like bundles Of
rags dumped on the bare boards. Most
of them bore the brand of hunger in
their sunlxen faces and wasted little

found out by a visit to the kitchens.

plemented by American food. Their
perils from disease are more than
from hunger, now that help has come
to feed them.
Outside in the streets of Kazan there
is no famine visible to careless eyes.
The market Is deep in mud between
booths stocked with food, like the
markets of Samara and Saratof-

Tragedy Of Childhood.
At the opera house Of Kazan night

the frocks they have worn five years
or more and Soviet officers and clerks,
who are warmly clad and cheerful
1t is only by roaming about as
have done. getting away to the vii
lagos, that one begins to know the
underlying truth Of all this life. which
Is general hunger and an amount Of
human tragedy beyond all reckoning.
Two little figures / saw yesterday
typify to me the tragedy Of Russian
childhood on the edge Of the famine.
1t was boy and a girl, perhaps and
years Of age, judging by their size.
They were trudging along, hand in
hand-their hands like bird claws. I
could hardly see their faces under
their fur caps and above the ragged
sheepskins that fell In tatters about
their wizened bodies, but presently
saw that they looked like an old man
and woman at the end Of life's tether.
They sat down in doorway and could
go no further.
Abandoned children" said man

There are hundreds OF thousands
Of them in Russia to-day, and the
misery Of the peasant people who love
their little ones may be reckoned a
little by that frightful desertion. 1t
Is better to turn them out in the
streets. where the Soviet officials find
them and take them, than to keep
them in the cottages where there Is
no food and not much hope SO Tar as
I can see.

Berlin. Dec. ).
Inquiries made among boys and girls
of the secondary schools In Berlin by
the Ministry of Education show I'm
provement in the physique OF younger
children. while In older children the I'M
provement In health Is not so marked,
owing to the after effects of the war
Children OF working men are stronger
than those of the middle class. because
the parents OF the former are earning
more and feed them better. The num-
Der of girl pupils has decreased. prob
ably because many families now have to
keep the girls at home to do house,
work.
The lessons In history and geography
now embrace legislation and political
economy as connection between i'm
portant events. This Is being done in
an effort to expand the child's mental ho-
rizon. School children are now particu-
larly interested in visits to Industrial
plants and display a keen interest In
technical science and industrial activity.
whereas the museums are less popular.
The teachers declare a marked I'm
provement is noticeable in the behavior
or children In and out OF school, and
that their morals likewise have improved
considerably. They attribute this chiefly
to the fact that the fathers are not away
lighting now. and thus a f1rmer home
control Of children is possible.
The Quakers have again offered to do
nate $3,000,000 for feeding women and
children on the condition that the Ger
man Government grants a subsidy of
l00.00O.000 marks. The German Cabinet
has complied with this request At the
suggestion of the Central Relief Com
mittee the German Red Cross has now
begun to furnish clothes parcels, which
are given out and got up along the
same lines as the food parcels.

The idea of the Cadiz-Buenos Aires
service originated In Spain. he said, the
Spaniards being anxious to establish a
quick and direct connection with Spain's

guaranteeing the interest on this sum.
Speaking before the Argentine Aero
Club and the German Club In Buenos
Aires. Dr. Eckner emphasized the point
that danger from thunderstorms and
lightning did not exist for airships, since
they were able TO dodge tempests. He
weather conditions greatly favored the
route proposed. which Is 5000 miles
long.
The return journey from Buenos
Aires to Cadiz will require a hundred
hours. owing TO the northeast winds that
will be encountered
DR.. Eckner said there were favorable
terrain conditions at both ends of the
route. particularly In Spain. which will
facilitate hangar building. He expects
tfat the entire capital stock OF the COM
pany will be earned within two years.
II is proposed that the service will be
iEaugurated with three Rirships. which
will cost 36.000.000 pesetas (about
s7.200.000) and hangers. gas factories
and wireless Installations. costing 40.-
900. 900 pesetas (about $1,000. .000). while
unforeseen expenses are calculated at
1000. 900 pesetas (about $8o0.000).
The expense In connection with each
trip will be about $4,000 pesetas tabout
$4,000. and 1t is estimated the receipts
will be about 100000 pesetas (about
$lS0.0o0). based on carrying sixty pas
sengers at 5000 pesetas (about s1.0oo)
each. and 100000 letters at 2 pesetas
(about 40 cents) each.
