Corn is shipped directly through these centers for tranship- ment to famine centers. Thus every thickly-populated cen- ter of Russia is covered. Moscow and Petrograd have indpendent super- vision of child-feeding and food re- mittance. In each about 35,000 chil- dren are fed This gigantic task is being accom- plished in a land— —where telegrams take three days in transmission —where messages must be trans- lated, transmitted, then re-translated to English. —where, through misunderstand- ings in punctuation, messages like this are received, ‘‘cars numbered 601328709134889 NPX have left today for Samara.” —where one is advised to take a train on Tuesday and therefore pre- pares to go to the station along about the following Thursday. —where journeys of ordinary length, a thousand miles or so, are spoken of as “five or six days away.” (The Twentieth Century Limited does it in 24 hours) —where the traveler covering 2,- 000 miles must cook his own flood and wash his own clothes while he rides. Yet, with such handicaps, the ad- ministration has succeeded in moving nearly 200,000 tons of corn from sea- ports to interior districts, in shipping daily 38,000 tons of food from Mos- cow; in sending out 2,500 food pack- ages daily to the districts; and in equipping 1,400 hospitals with all the necessities of such institutions, in- cluding 500,000 sheets and an equal number of blankets. $2,600,000 FOR RELIEF American Cities Donate Great Sums inve operate from s comprising i each dis ina SUpervisor responsible 1t Mo an area of nearly These 4,000 than the cow gquare miles, larger Tey of the famine region From zovernment south to As the river rail attention weat the the mouth of every men the and for two or for Humanitarian Causes During 1921, to Social Workers, Providence, R.

Above all things, it is re- freshingly free from that cynicism which is the favorite pose of the hardened Washington correspondent. Only one in sympathy with the under- lying purpose of the conference could have written its story so well." Christian Science Monitor.
