MOSCOW. November 3O.-A total of
100000 children in the famine dis
trict will be receiving regular food al
lotments from the American Relief
Administration by the first of next
year. 1t was stated by Walter L.
Brown. director, on his departure from
Moscow after an inspection tour.
I'VE are having fewer difficulties
for the relief work three months ago"
he said. Contrary to predictions, the
red army Is not taking any of the food
and we are operating virtually with
out loss from the first. The amount
stolen in Russia has been far less than
We are now feeding half q million
children. and by January the number
will be 100000. 1t Is done at a cost
Of 80 cents a month for each child or
a total of $12.00o,000. until the next
harvest. This is exclusive Of $4,000
900 for medical supplies and $1.50o.000
for clothing. The soviet government
supplies from the seaports.
Gratitude In Expressed.
M. Cameneff has expressed his salts
faction and gratitude to me for the
work done, and also confidence that our
aims are not political. Cleo Canieneff
Is president Of the Moscow soviet and
also. head Of the all-Russian famine re-
lief commission.)
The American Relief Administration
has no plans for feeding adults nor for
providing seed grain to insure the next
harvest and prevent a greater famine;
it Is apparent that II the adults are
hungry they will eat the seeds instead
Of planting them. Whether the famine
will recur after the next harvest de-
pends upon the weather and also the
amount of seeds furnished the farmers.
understand that the soviet govern
ment is buying seeds in London.
'"The food package system is working
well. with deliveries in Moscow three
days after their arrival Also the pack
ages are so per cent cheaper than simi-
lar food on the local market.
TT is my opinion that the work should
be continued. as 1t is necessary to the
worlds economic reconstruction. which
cannot afford to have 100000 non-pro-
ducers."

MINERS BLOCK EVIC-
TION

Seattle. - Superior Court Judge
Hall has blocked the attempt of the
Pacific Coast Coal Company to evict
miners from company houses. The
company is the largest concern of its
kind in the state. Its employees, to-
gether with other miners, have been
forced on strike against wage cut,
despite an award by government
commission that does not expire until
next April
Judge Hall ruled that the eviction
notices were not legally prepared
The court ordered that bonds put up
by the Miners Union be returned.
The company will have to start all
over again in its eviction campaign,
and this will consume several weeks.
Trade unionists declare that the
emplorers' violation of the govern
ment award will not be forgotten.

its product commodities are necessary

ure, distribution and sale of it by the
state will tend to promote public well
fare and secure equality of economic
opportunity.
In letter to President Gompers.
Maurice Cassidy, secretary of the St.
Louis building trades council, said that
the activities to start a state-owned
plant may be responsible for the low
price of cement in Pennsylvania. In

C0-OperatOrs Win Out In
Western State

Washington-A decision just made
by the federal court of appeals, at
San Francisco, affirming an order of
the federal trade commission in the
case of the Los Angeles Grocery
Company, is a far reaching victory for
the cooperative movement, and the
elimination of the middle man, accord
ing to statement issued by the COM
mission.
The Los Angeles Grocery Company
is corporation owned by 80 retail
grocers which sells groceries in retail
quantities to other grocers as well
as to it's own stockholders.
Attempts by manufacturers and
jobbers to wreck the company brought
an appeal to the commission, which
ruled that the company is jobber
and therefore entitled to buy directly
from manufacturers.
The commission also ruled that sew
eral jobbers had entered into a con-
spiracy against the company by CO.
ercing manufacturers to boycott the
Los Angeles concern.
The manufacturers and jobbers car
ried the commissions ruling to the
federal court, which has upheld the
commission.
