There has been no baby famine the Volga Valley. Even during six months just passed, when dreds of thousands of adults and children have died, the stork has made a valiant fight to keep apace with the Reaper. Accurate statistics are just as lacking on the birth- rate as on the death rate, but observer in the famine districts fin on every hand evidence that the p ant mothers have been fruitful even when the land was not. The Samara district, degpite the ravages of famine among children last | autumn, literally swarms with infants Thousands of new-born babies, | thrust upon famine-stricken commun- ities by undernourished mothers pvnh» ably have died within a few days or weeks after hirth. Others are tiny | living skeletons with drawn faces like old men. But most of them whom the | correspondent saw at railway sta- tions, in box cars riding with their mothers to some more fruitful region and elsewhere, seemed plump and rosy and happy. An American relief administration | census of Samara province last Sep- | tember showed that 44 per cent the inhabitants were children under | 16 years of age. While the mortal- | ity among children was very high last | B8eptember they have received food from America and elsewhere since then which the adults have not and the death rate recently has been high- er among men than among either| adult women or children. Asked why the children lived and the adults died, a bearded old peas-| ant with clear honest eyes | in the hun- an ds of shining | from his weathered face said it was wvery simple. “When the children cry for food | we glve it to them, even if it is the last we have,” he sald.
