Local Famine Committee
Makes Statement.

statement issued today by the Indi-
ana Russian famine fund committee,
which is in charge Of the collection Of
relief for the American Friends Service,
declares that the investigation being made
by the Government does not apply to
their work. The statement, which is
signed by Edgar Fl. Evans, Eben H
Wolcott, Mrs. Wilmer Christian and
Mrs. Booth Harrington, is as follows:
THE investigation now being made by
Federal officials Of agencies making ap-
peals for Russian famine relief contribu-
tions does not apply to the American
Friends Service committee (Quakers)
which is Endorsed by Herbert Hoover
Aand specifically named by him as an
American relief organization deserving
support.
Money, -four and clothing being col
lected in Indiana by the Indiana Russian
Famine Fund committee are distributed
through the Quakers in the Buzuluk dis
trict Of the famine striker area This
region was assigned to the Quakers by
Mr.. Hoover at a conference last spring
at Riga, Russia, and supplies bought
with monye appropriated by the Amer
lean Congress for Russian relief are not
sent into the Buzuluk district because Of
this agreement.
when the Quakers accepted this re-
sponsibility they did so relying on the
generosity Of the American people with
out regard to UNCONVENTIONAL lines, and
funds to save the children and peasants
in Buzuluk Ouesda must be contributed
ty the general public. Not a penny of
these contributions goes for over
head and there is no contact at any
point of supervision or distribution with
the soviet government"

PHILIPPINE FATE
UP TO CONGRESS
Sergio Osmena Pushes Re-
Mobilization Bill Through.

MANILA, Feb. 11.-Carrying out his
promise. Sergio fOsmena has rushed the
financial rehabilitation measure through
the closing session Of the fifth Legislature.
If Congress agrees, the Philippines now
can re-establish the peso on a gold basis,
with full specie reserve plus ample
exchange funds deposited in American
banks, thereby making the islands at
tractive and secure for investors and
averting the governments ruin.
The Senate has confirmed Governor
Woods appointments.
1t is evident the Independence cam
paign, conducted in a dignifed manner,
is not hampering Governor Woods eco
nomic policy. The indebtedness author
lied is approximately $4,000 pesos gold
including funds for restoring the pro-
eeeds Of last summers irrigation and
portworks bonds, which were not used
for the purposes specified to the bond
holders. The action of the Legislature
restores business confidence and reflects
the highest credit upon Governor Woods
craftsmanship because Of the factional
strife in the Legislature over which he
has triumphed by ignoring it.-Copy-

WASHINGTON, Feb. 11.-War Depart
ment officials fatty declare the recent or
der sending Maj. Gen. Omar Bundy to
the Philippines has no connection with
the assignment of Brig. Gen. Douglas
Macarthur to an insular post in June
when his services as superintendent at
West Point are terminated. Nor does
the dispatch of General Bundy indicate
the plans of the Department have been
altered with respect to General MacAr-
thur who heads the list of officers slated
for foreign duty.
General Bundy, 1t was stated, is to go
to the Philippines as commander of the
Philippine division, and his assignment
was made in place of Major General
Ham, who will retire. Macarthur, a
younger officer of lesser rank than Gen
eral Bundy, probably will be assigned to
troops in the Philippines.
Army officers, from General Pershing
down, continued to be nettled by the
persistence of Washington rumors the
assignment of General Macarthur to the
Philippines amounted to a form of dis
ciplining for that officer for his recent
engagement to Mrs. Louise Cromwell
Brooks of Philadelphia and Washington.
Rumor had 1t General Pershing and
several other officers Of the Army had
showed marked attention to Mrs. Brooks
and were bent on taking out their pique
on Macarthur. Unable to contain him
self, General Pershing, taking leaf
from the book of his friend, General
Dawes, recently characterized the story
as damned poppycock," and other of
fcers did likewise in language too strong
for publication.
As far as could be learned there has
been no change contemplated in the or
