 FAMINE ON VoLGA.
tO,OOO,OOO STARVING
RUSSIA MUST HAVE HELP FROM OTHER NATIONS AT ONCE
 IS REPORT.
(Wsst.rn Newspaper Union N.u. Service

Congressional author. lty has been asked for the use of sur plus army supplies in the famine areas of Russia, where from 5,0O0,0O0 to 10,O00,O00 people are starving, Sec retary Hoover announced.
 MT. Hoover made public a letter to Chairman Kahn of the House military affairs committee, in which he called attention ito the terrible situation in the VOlga basin in Russia," and eff forts of private relief agencies to save as many lives as possible.
 'I am addressing yOu," he said, Gin the hope that Congress might author ize the secretary of war to donate these associations such of the used clothing, surplus medical and food supplies as cannot be advantageOusly used by the army or as cannot be readily disposed of for cash.
 Secretary Weeks informs me that there are considerable quantities of such things costing the government large amounts for storage and preser- vation, and I believe no greater pur- pose could be found for their appli- cation"
 MT. Hoover also made public a statement on famine conditions in Russia by pr. Vernon Kellogg, secre- tary of the national research council, which declared that in the Volga the lives of 15,OOO,OOO people were placed in jeopardy. He added that cOncen- tratiOn of the food available there upon certain individuals throughout the year might mean the survival of seven or eight millions of this num- Der.
 "In any event." Dr. Kellogg said, "some number of from five to ten millions must be destroyed unless they are relieved from outside Rus sia."
 Around this area, he continued, there is another area where there will be considerable mortality and throughout the balance of Russia there is no supply of food generally.
 Accompanying Mr. HOover's letter was a survey of conditions in the Tartar republic by J. P. Gregg, an in- vestigatOr of the American relief ad- ministratiOn, which told of the failure of that government to meet the famine needs of the people. He esti- mated the number of children there at about 1,250,OO0 and declared the government had enough food to feed about 11,5OO for a month.

PUZZLE FOR LOVERS OF DOG
rect Time, When the Clocks Had Been AdVanced7

Perhaps because of his power of speech, the parrot is usually regarded as amazingly wise. But many dumb creatures often display just as re- markable intelligence.
 Can a dog judge time? This Is one of the subjects upon which some light is thrown in Dogs, Birds and Others" by Fl. J. Massingham.
 A terrier had been in the habit of jumping on his masters bed and aWak- ening him each morning at seven o'clock. When the clocks had been advanced an hour for summer time, the man was anxious to see what the dog would do.
 Next morning, as usual, the animal jumped upon the bed. The clock was at seven exactly, although really 1t was only six o'clock. Had the dog counted the strokes of the clock when 1t struck, or had he understood about the clocks being put On7
