By Associated Press:
WASHINGTON. Jan. 13-Contin-
uation Of relief work I'm Europe is
urged in kilograms from American
diplomatic Representatives there,
transmitted Thursday TO the senate
by Pres't Wilson in response to a
request for information regarding
European distress.
Hugh Gibson. American minister
TO Poland, said continuation of relief
work for children in that country
on the present scale was "absolutely
necessary TO avoid starvation"
The Polish government and people,
he said. were "straining every re-
source" but were unable to provide
even a minimum for the mainten-
ance Of children.
Commissioner Frazier at Vienna
said 300, 200 children there were
being fed daily by the American
relief administration and that great
suffering" would follow cessation OF
the work. He ADDED however, that
undue continuation Of the reHef
work might not lead to lack Of
effort by the inhabitants and that
they should be informed that
American activity was temporary
only.

WAR FINANCE BODY,
AS PANACEA, SEEMS
DOOMED TO FAILURE
Treasury Officials Warn
Quick Benefits Need Not
Be Expected.

WASHINGTON. d. c. Jan. 10
The war finance corporation, as a
panacea for existing agricultural and
industrial ills, is likely to prove a
dismal disappointment.
Although the house and senate
have had their way in ordering the
revival Of this war agency, the warn
ing comes from treasury officials
that immediate benefits are not to BE-
expected from the passage of the
resolution and that the ultimate ben
efits, if any. will not be such as TO
have an appreciable effect in the near
future on American exports.
Canvassing the situation at the
treasury department developed by
passage of the resolution over the
presidential vote one finds that al
though the secretary Of the treasury
intends to go about the business of
complying with the order of congress
in good faith there is an atmosphere
of utter lack Of faith in the war
finance corporation as a cure-all re-
storative that extends even to The
three men who were directors Of the
corporation
Directors Sl1eptical.
They are Sec. Houston, George r.
COoksey and Mclean, assistant ECc-
retaries of the treasury. Messers,
COOksey and Mclean are as
thoroughly convinced Of the IN
soundness of the revival of the cor
poration from a financial standpoint
as Mr.. Houston so frankly revealed
himself to be before various COM
mittees of the house and senate
From the outset. therefore, the
administration OF the corporation
will be in the hands Of a board of
directors frankly skeptical as to the
outcome Of the whole business. Tn
der the law the presirent is empower
cred, with the advice and consent of
the senate, to appoint two other
directors for the corporation, but
the president is also hostile TO the
corporation and even if he should
ever appoint the two other directors.
which is regarded as doubtful. il is
not TO be expected that their opinions
will differ materially from those of
Houston, COoksev and Mclean who.
in any event, VIII control the cor
pOration.
Face Future Difficulties
Further difficulties that will be
met by those hoping to benefit from
the passage Of the resolution arise
from the wide latitude OF discretion
given the corporation in making
loans. The law provides that two
kinds Of loans can be made for ex-
port purp Oses:
Loans direct to exporters.
2-LOans TO banks which have in
turn loaned to exporters.
However, when an exporter ap-
plies for q loan he must show that
he has not beer able 70 obtain
loan in ordinary banking channels
and he must further meet the drastic
security conditions laid down by the
board which are as severe as the
security and collateral requirements
Of commercial houses, II not more so.
An exporter. therefore. who has not
been able 70 secure a loan from a
bank evidently stands little chance
Of getting IT from the war finance
corporation.
