Odessa Smiles Again;
America Caused Change

ODESSA, July 24.-American re-
Odessa.
Four months ago their condition
was heart rendng In March and
April the city streets were unlight-
ed: starvation killed faster than the
authorities could remove the bodies
of its victims; the hospitals were
in unspeakable distress and from
them and the Children's Homes the
death carts made constant trips day
and night to the city cemeteries.
Workers of the American Relief
Administration see today wonderful
improvement. The people who walked
dejectedly through the streets three
months ago now smile, and the chill
dren have begun again to laugh and
sing and enjoy themselves. They are
pinched Youngsters who skunk or
crawed about in the spring.
Hospitals now conduct visitors
through their wards with pride, for
they have clean linen and ample
medicine to care for their patients.
Storekeepers who in the trying
days feared to resume activity. think
ing that desperate people would loot
their places. have reopened their
doors and Odessa's shopping zone
is functioning well. Government EN-.
ployecs are better able now to do
their work; hence the lighting plants
and water pumping stations oper-
ate more regularly
