One MILLION GERMAN
CHILDREN FED IN JUNE,
SAYS MISS NICHOLSON

Approximately 100000 German
children were fed daily during ."e
month of June by the Hoover feeoing
administration, according to Miss Car.
oline Nicholson. daughter OF MI. anu
Mrs. s. Edgar Nicholson, who return
ed to her home here THURSDAY. MISS
Nicholson had been gone lot 10
months. during which time she work
ed with the administration stan IN
Germany.
Feeding has been practically dis
continued until about October, SAID
Miss Nicholson, because schools arc
out now for the vacation period. 1t is
probable that when the feeding is
again begun, it will be continued until
about Easter of next year"
Miss Nicholson said that the Ger
man government was now doing much
for the children. All transportation
costs within the limits of the country
are paid by the government, and
scores of relief workers are paid by
the government to see to the proper
feeding of children.
Foods which have been scarce in
Germany, and which we have helped
TO supply Miss Nicholson SAID, were
sugar, fats, beans and wheat -four
Only the children most in need were
supplied Physical examinations were
made by doctors to determine whether
or not a child needed regulated
feeding"
Clothing Need Keen.
The need of clothing is very keen
according to Miss Nicholson. She sait
that one woman she knew used hel
lace curtains to make dresses for hel
girls; another soaked the paper off {
map to get the cloth fibre with which
the map was reinforced, and that an
other lady dyed her bed sheets so tha
they could be used for clothing. Sur
plus clothing is now also about uset
up and the need this winter is dis
tressing, Miss Nicholson said.
In Hamburg, where Miss Nicholson
was located, she estimated that the un
employed men would total near 10000
While the wage paid are about fou
times the amount before the war, sh'
said, the cost of necessities have ad
vanced II or Is times.

Boy With Tack in Lung,
Wins Race With Death
(By ASSOCIATED Pressl

fby Associated Press)
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 5.-A race
with death, which began five days ago
at his home in Monticello. Ark, and
ended here, was won by nine-year-old
Morris Keizer.
Morris swallowed a brass tack to
win the admiration of his playmates.
The tack lodged deep in his lung,
threatening to puncture it. The boy
was rushed across the country to a
hospital here on the slim chance his
life might be saved. A bronchoscope
was inserted and forceps applied to
remove the tack. No anaesthetic was
administered, and today the boy is de
clared perfectly well.

ONLY Low TAX HOPE
lRy Associated Pressl

WASHINGTON, Aug. 5-Reduction
in army and navy expenditures is the
only hope of reducing taxes, Senator
Borah, Republican, Idaho, declared
today in the senate, supporting his
resolution to cut the army from $50,
900 to 100000 men.
There are no places where we can
cut expenses to any appreciable ex
tent except the army and navy" said
Senator Borah. IF we are not will
ling to do that we might just as well
tell the country that we will do very
well if we hold expenditures and taxes
where they are now and that there is
no hope for reducing taxes"
His proposed reduction in the army
Senator Borah said, would alone save
from so to 20 million dollars.
