AWAT STEANERS Supplies From New York Will Start for Russia When Vessels Are Available. Shipments of food from New York to Russia are to begin as soon as vessels are ready, officials of the American Re- lief Administration sald last night. It was believed that surplus supplies from || ment negotiated at Riga between Walter Lyman Brown, European director of the organization, and Litvinoft, the soviet|| representative. Secretary Hoover, chairman of the American Relief Administration, has as vet only outlined in a broad way the Pplans for mitigating the Russian famine, officials declared. ~Famine areas near [ Petrograd and Moscow, cess Le the fi shipments going fro of Danzig, but I supplies from thi some of the s areas quicker through the Black sea ports. Plan for Children. the smost ac- nu: as the administr: zatlon reached its ma: predicted that vast st would cross the seas to dren. These supplies ha cially selected to meet the needs | of the young, co of foods ric d fats for soup making, || and beans. retary Hoover estimated the {cost of Russian relief, when It is well under way, at from $1,250,000 to $1,500,000 a month. The administra- tion will depend upon its treasur. he said, for necessary funds, and upon current contributions of co- operating organizations and indl- viduals. Will Confer With Hoover. All American organizations partici- || pating in the work under the Ameri- || can Relief Administration will meet here Wednesday for a preliminary || conference with Mr. Hoover. Unity in the distribution of American char- ity in Russia was asked by President || Harding to insure the besi service to the peoples of both countries and to eliminate the creation of unnecessary {! teran organi- m speed they of foodstuffs chil- || funds. ! Every dollar to be expended by the administration on behalf of Russian children will be spent in this coun- try, Mr. Hoover has announced, and all the food used will be sent from || here, with the exception of such sur- plus stocks as are already abroad. Withdrawal of large quantities of foodstuffs from the United States should help the farmers in the move- ment of accumulated crops, it was asserted. Trade Exploitation Unintended. | Once under way, American food re- lief in Russia is to be purely a privately controlled operation with- out government support. Because of Mr. Hoover's dual role, as Secretary of Commerce and chairman of the relief administration, inferences are said to have been drawn in Europe, resulting from commercial jealousies, that this country was aiming at trade exploitation in Russia under the guise of charity. However, both Mr. Ho: and the State Depart- {ment i made it plain that Ameri- {can ald is enitrely humanitarian and | { wholly disconnected from trade and | commerce. | —_— FOREIGN TRADE SLACK.
