UP—Months of hunger, the hunger that drives men to eat bark and leaves, to sell their children and sometimes to kill their familles and themselves, are in prospect for 4,000,000 Chinese.

In 35 districts the harvest was only ten per cent of normal Famin: is beginning, too, in southern Chihll where crops were only-20 per cent of normal. Missionaries report that 6 people are beginning to sell their cattle and dispose of their property. others aro migrating. Those re- maining are beginning to mix chaff with their food. While immediate distress is not everwhelming, says M. T. Liang, chairman of the international fam- ine rellef committee, it is expected that the wmost trying period will come in the three or four months ahead. In the corresponding pe- riod in 1921 as many as 1,500 per- sons were sald to have dled daily. Reports to the state department at Washington eay that banditry and civil war have aggravated the distress and probably will make impossible any extensive relief work under foreign supervision, | Fleld workers of relief organiza- tions believe make difficult the usual progra of relief in exchange for labor on roads and otier public works.
