Relieve Europe's Starving | in Honest Hands. | Spnpomeennte By Martin Green. A conference in Washington to-day, attended by representatives of big New York banks which have never. by the “retail” foreign exchange busi- ness, is expected to result in Treasury Department and State Departmaat rulings ‘and indorsements which should have an fmmediate effect on the oporations of dishonest and irre- sponsible persons, calling themselves bankers, brokers or agents, who are making vast iNegitimate profits shrough the transmission of money to Central and Eastern Europe. he co-operation of foreign govern- wrents with the United States Gov- ernment in contemplated reforms will, it is anticipated, almost immediately remedy flagrant evils and gradually— unless there be another war in Furope-place. the. responsibility of sending money in small amounts to Europe in-safe, reliable and properly supervised hands. The question is one of vast impor- tance, involvigg not only the matter of the cheating of the poor and igno- rant foreign language speaking resi- dents of this country out of immense sums daily, but immfgration promo- tion in violation of, the laws and American foreign trade and com- merce, which is being adversely affeot- ed by the present system of handling international exchange, So big and widespread and involved are the issues that agreements be- tween governments are necessary to insure action which will be of any value. One of the chief troubles— aside from the dishonesty and trick- ery of the irresponsible agents—is that the banks and the post office systems of Central Europe are quite unable to take care of the ifmen: flood of business which has rolled upon them from the United States singe the frontiers were opened, fol- lowing the end of the war. Also, there is a considerable amount of dishonesty and trickery among those to whom are intrusted the delivery in the countries of Central Burope of the money sent to individ- wils there by relatives or friends in the United States. There is robbery at both ends and even some organiza~ Uons in the United States which are sponsored by men of the highest standing are to some extent in disre- pute here and abroad because of dis- honesty or incompetence on the part of many of their European represent- atives. In connection with the efforts on the part of certain financiers in this gity to obtain permission from the Banking Department to sell Soviet rubles to New York Russians and Russian Jews the Evening World learned to-day, through banking cor- porations having the best of connec- tions in Europe, that the Soviet ruble is as valueless abroad—outside of Soviet Russia—as it is here, Advices from Stockholm, Coppnhagen and Berlin stated that there are no bank- ing connections between those finan- cial centres and Petrograd or Moscow. Not anly are Soviet rubles of no ‘value in the United States, but, according to Director of the Mint Raymond Baker, who js quoted in a special Washington despatch to the New York Times, Soviet gold is of no alue efther, This applies to Soviet gold direct from Russia or Soviet gold sent here from any other country. ‘The mints will refuse to buy or con- vey Soviet gold. Persons offering gold to the Government are required to make affidavit that it is fra from Soviet taint. Ba nking institutions and individ- said Mr, Baker, "might just as well go into the business of buying Confederate bills as of buying Soviet money.” SENATOR EDGE CUTS OUT BIG JOB FOR SENATE. ‘The Evening World's revelations of the extent and unreliability of the operations of numerous institutions ind individuals engaged for profit in the ostensible business of sending relief to the suffering and starving in urope had its effett in the United] tates Senate yesterday when Senator Kdge of Now Jersey offered a resolu- on, which was adopted, calling on the State Department for “accurate infor- on as to the necessities of women and children in the varidus distressed nations."* Ae The Evening World has ined, editorially, it is not charg laudable work of affording + ) the distressed in Europe is in ite fraudulent, ‘The work of the Hoover ommittee and other organ which are well managed and @ competent personnel is commend- cio and worthy of support Senator Edge made it plain that his resolutiqn not directed toward an stigatioh of these institutions.

Marguerite Mooers Marshall. When a brave airman makes a flight Tecord and conquers almost incon- ceiyable dangers and hardships— there's a.brave Woman who stands | behind him and whose undaunted) spirit soars higher than any altitude record achieved by an airplane. Two New York women have proved | again the truth of the above asser- tion, with their happy comments on the most joyous news of the New Year—the ‘safety of the crew of the lost navy balloon, A-5598.

But if the rest of us feared, two women—Mrs, Walter Hinton, wife of Lieut. Hinton, and Mrs. Stephen rell, wife of Lieut. Farrell—w brave to do anything except hope and trust, “I never gave up hope even when things seemed blackest,” Mrs. Hinton declared in her home at Belle Harbor, near the Rockaway Point Air Station, when they told her of the message sent by her husband. “Something seemed to tell me there a chance for the three of them to dome throug) safely. The knowledge of Mvs. Fur- rell's steadfast faith and hopefulness did much to cheer me and to ke me believing they would some way or other get back to safety and civillzi- tion.” SPIRITS OF TWO WIVES BUOYED UP BY PERFECT FAITH. And that faith of Mrs. Farrell's wos so warm and strong that she would not let her husband's mysterious fate spoil the Christmas of herself and two children, Eugane and Emily.

At the time of the filght Lady Brown was Miss Marguerite Kath- leen Kennedy, daughter of one of the chiofs of the Aircraft Production Department of tho Ministry of Mu- nition®in London.
