WORKER OF
RUSSIA To DETAIL
FAMINE SITUATION

The committee in charge of the Rus
sian Relief campaign in this county
Is expecting a large attendance at the
PUBIC mass meeting to be held at the
Reid Memorial church Sunday after
noon at 2:3O o'clock to hear Miss
Lucy Branham on the conditions in
Russia as she found them last autumn.
This meeting marks the opening of
the state campaign in Wayne county
which is to be carried on under the
leadership of a county committee
headed by AlonZo M. Gardner as chair
man, P. H. Slocum as secretary, and
Alton Hale as treasurer.
Miss Branham, who is. an instructor
in economics at Columbia university.
returned three or four weeks ago from
an extended tour throughout the Rus
sian provinces. She went into that
country during the early part of last
year quite independently in order to
study educational cOnditiC.s. The So
Wet officials said that the educational
system is so chaotic and so much in
the making that they were reluctant
to have it reported upon as a COM
plete system. They offered no OBJ
stacles, however, in the way of visit
ing schools and children's institutions
of all kinds.
After some weeks of study, the
famine situation developed in the
Volga provinces, and she went into the
famine district, travelling down the
Nolga, then over to the Ural noun
tains, and thus had a splendid oppor-
tunity to witness in detail the effects
of the famine. Miss Branham is an
active suffragist and a member of the
Woman's party.
Meeting for All
Those in charge of the meeting on
Sunday afternoon say that it is
meeting for everybody who is inter-
ested IN hearing about the conditions
IN unfortunate Russia. S. E. Nichol-
son, who is state director of the cam
paign in Indiana, under the general
direction of the general committee,
with headquarters in Indianapolis,
said Saturday:
There seems to be a great mis-
understanding on the part of many
people with reference to this Russian
famine. Many have thought that it
was due in some way to political con-
ditions and to the radicalism of the
soviet government. On the contrary,
the famine is the result of an intense
drouth, because in a district approx
mately 500 by 500 miles in extent,
with population of more than 2O,000,-
600 people who are dependent almost
entirely upon the farm for a living,
there was only about two inches of
rainfall last year, compared with
normal rainfall of IA inches"
Not only do the people need food
but as always, this famine has left
in the wake of hunger, widespread dis
ease and death. When the feeding of
children began by the American Re
lief administration and the Friends
Service committee, both committees
reaching as many children as the
funds would allow, many of the older
people who were not being fed and

SENATE TO RUSH
WORK ON TARIFF

Washington, Aug. IA. - The
senate entered today upon its last
week of wrestling with the ad-
ministration tariff bill, an agree
ment having been made for a fin
al vote next Saturday. With hun
dreds of amendments still undis-
posed of, senators looked forward
to a busy six days with. several
night sessions In prospect.
After senate action, the bill
will be sent to conference, where
representatives of the house and
senate will undertake to reach an
agreement on the more than 1000
senate amendments. The ques-
tion of American valu-
alton is the biggest issue before
the conferees but senate leaders
believe the house will accept the
senate plan of assessing ad valor-
EN- duties on the foreign valua-
ton with authority for the pres
ident to increase or decrease rates
to meet changing conditions.
There is still speculation at the
capital as to whether the bill will
be reported out of conference.
Senate managers hope to have it
ready for final action within a
month or six weeks, but some sen
ators, republicans as well as dem
ocrats, express doubts privately
that the bill will ever reach the
statute books.
