MONTHS OF HUNGER FACING CHINESE
EVa at Present the Distress is Overwhelming

Washington. Feb. 10. R1Months of hunger. the hunger that drives men to eat bark and leaves. to sell their children and sometimes to kill their families and themselves. are in prospect for 4.ooo, 900 Chinese.
 Reports indicate that tho situa- tion in western shantung and southern Chihh will be aS serious be- tween now and May as in the great famine of 1920 and 1921. Four provinces were affected then and hundreds of thousands - perhaps millions - died. Boys and girls were sold as slaves. Many ended their lives after eating their last morsel.
 America helped generously In that famine. But now American relief organizations are unable to give more than casual aid because of the prevailing banditry and civil war.
 The specter of starvation ap- -peared for the second time in seven years in these provinces when last years crops in many districts failed. The pinch of fam

 Shantung IS the holy land of the Flowery Kingdom. the birthplace of Confueius and Mencius. home- land of countless sages. Here is located the sacred mountain of Tai Shan. Western Shantung Is the peninsula forming the lower jaw of tho Gulf of Chihli. Across the province flows the HwanE. or Yel- low river, "scourge of China" which in floods breaks through its hanks and seeks new courses across hapless farmlands.
 When time are good it is one of the richest agricultural regions of China.

 Missionaries report that people are beginning to sell their cattle and dispose of their property. others arc migrating. Those re- maining arc beginning to mix chaff with their food.
 While immediate distress is not overwhelming. says NJ. T. Liang, chairman of the international fam inc relief committee. 1t Is expected that the most trying period will como in the three or four months ahead. In the corresponding pe- riod in 1921 aS many as 1.500 per- sons were said to have died daily.
 Reports to the state department at Washington say that banditry and civil war have aggravated the distress and probably will make impossible any extensive relief work under foreign supervision. Field workers of relief organiza- lions believe conditions also will make difficult the usual progra m of relief in exchange for labor on roads and other public works.
 The mountains of southern and eastern Shantung lon& have been the haunts of organized banditry. Of late years the lawless elementA have been added 10 by unpaid sol diers and farmers driven to des- peration by thefts and crop failures. General Chang Tsung Chang,

Poultry Raiser Pays
 $500 for Canadian Hen

Vancouver, B. C.. Feb. 10 Hv- One hundred and twenty-five dollar rs a pound is the price which F. A. Sansome. poultry breeder of Green wtch. Conn.,, paid tha University of British Columbia for Hen No. F3l9. a champion egs-laying leghorn.
 The bird weighed just four pounds and sold for $500. She will head the breeding flock on Sam some's chicken farm.
 The costly bullet is a money niak- CT in her own right, according to Prof. F.. A. Lloyd of the university. She laid 335 eggs in a s65 day test and it is estimated that for breed- ing purposes her years production would be worth four times the hens selling price.
 The hen is a stable mate of Mai zie. world champion egg-1ayer, which produced 35l eggs in 365 days at the university farms.
