DEMAND MADE
AS CONDITION
OF u. S. RELIEF
Sec. Hoover Recently De-
clared That Aid Would
Not Be Sent to the iii
and Starving Until These
Americans Were S e t
Free - Hughes Made
Formal Demand

Washington, d. c., July 27.-Formal
demand for release of American pris-
oners in Russia has been made on the
soviet authorities by Secretary Hughes.
The state department was advised to-
day that the communication had been
handed to the soviet representative at
Reval yesterday by Consul Albrecht.
The text of the communication has
not been made public 1t is understood,
however, to, be a brief insistence that
the Americans be released before there
can be any thought of better relations
The action was taken in the name of
humanity and because all efforts to
obtain the release of the Americans
made through DIR. Nansen of the Red
Cross, have failed.
What course will be taken by the
United States if the soviet authorities
ignore or refuse to accede to the de-
mands was not indicated.
The communication was sent to Con-
sui Albrecht July p. The curt de
mand made upon the Russian authori
ties for the release of American pris-
oners is the first official representa-
tion made upon the subject, although
Ienine and Trotzky and their associ-
ates have been previously advised in
formally of the determination Of the
United States not to consider closer
relations with Russia until this was
done.
The dispatch Of the communication
was timed SO that it would reach the
pusly with the message sent by Sec
retary Hoover in response to the ap-
peal made by Maxim Gorky. The !
state departments message is regard !
ed officially as wholly independent of
the HooverGorky correspondence, al |
though il is admitted that il, will |
serve tn strengthen the attitude TAX
en- by Secretary Hoover, who made it !
clear in his message that any relief |
by the United States for the suffer
ing Russians would depend largely |
upon the manner in which Americans |
in Russia are treated.
There are now held as prisoners in
Russia eight or ten Americans
larger number are believed to be de-
tanned within the borders Of Russia,
some Of whom are restricted To lin
ited areas Within those areas they
are permitted TO come and 90, but al
ways under surveillance and with the
understanding that efforts to extend
their movements will result in closer
confinement.

RAILROAD MESSAGE
KILLS NORRIS BILL
In the Opinion of Many Republican
Leaders in the
Senate.

Washington, ID c., July 27.-Presi
dent Harding's special message to Con
gress on railroad and farm financing
was regarded to-day by many Repub
lican leaders in the Senate as having
dealt a death blow to the Norris bill
to create a $l00,000,000 farm export
corporation.
The president, in his message, sug.
gested that the powers of the war
finance corporation be extended "a
cover all phases of farm credits and
the bill containing such provision in
troduced yesterday by Senator Kellogg,
Republican, Minnesota, was said to
have the approval of the administra
tion.
1t was drafted by Secretary Hoover
and Director Meyer of the finance cor
poration and win in the opinion of
many Republican senators as expressed
today, be substituted for the Norris
bill which Secretary Hoover con.
demned and Secretary Wallace failed
to endorse before the Senate agricul.
ture committee.
Champions OF the Norris bill said to-
day that they would relent not one
whit in the fight in behalf of their
measure. They had ready to be voted
on to-day series of amendments de-
signed to eliminate provisions severely
criticised during debate. The Kellogg
measure also will be voted on as an
amendment to the Norris bill.
just when Congress would be able
to take up the second request embodied
in the presidents messsge-the exten,
sion OF the war finance corporations
powers to permit it to fund about
$500, 100000 of railroad indebtedness to
the government-still was uncertain
to-day. Leaders said there probably
would be action within a fortnight.

"No child nutrition worker, says
the L. S. Public Health Service,

Service commends the following
precepts: Children aged four years
need twelve hours sleep a day;
five to seven, II to ~ hours, eight
to eleven, 10 to II hours; and
twelve to fourteen 8 to 10 hours.
Children grow mainly while sleep
