ALLIES WILL AID POPULATION OF

FORMER ENEMIES

Will Co-operate in Furnishing Food to People of Turkey, Bulgaria and Austria.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 6. America and the allies are planning to co-oper

ate In making available as far as pos

fclble food and other supplies needed

for the demoralized civilian population in once enemy countries.

This became known last night through the publication of a message from Col E. M. House at Paris to President Wilson, saying the supreme war council at Versailles had adopted a

resolution announcing its desire to co-operate with Austria. Bulgaria and Turkey in furnishing the necessities of life for the suffering peoples of those nations. The allied and American governments are to co-operate with AustriaHungary, Bulgaria and Turkey in providing food and supplies for the suffering civilian populations of those countries. This decision was reached by the Versailles conferees Monday, President was advised today by Col. E. M. House. "At the conclusion of the meeting of the supreme war council yesterday," said Col. House's message, "I proposed a resolution in the following sense and the same was adopted: 'The supreme war council in session at Versailles

desires to co-operate with Austria,

Turkey and Bulgaria in the making available as far as possible for the lives of the civilian population of those countries.'" This announcement is expected to have a far-reaching effect in Germany, where, from all accounts, the food situation is only a little less serious than it is in the countries until recently allied with Germany in the war. Conditions are represented as particularly serious in Austria-Hungary, where food riots have been frequent and where there has been intense suffering not alone from the want of food, but clothing and other necessaries.

MKISNECHT FREED FROM HUN PRISON

SEATTLE, Nov. 6 "Sure they're ' 'blond Eskimos.' They are aborigines living up in the white Arctic on Victoria Land in their primeval state absolutely untouched by the outside world's civilization. . They are completely out of contact with everything, and consequently, have none of our improvements and also none of our evils." W. J. Bower, known along the Arctic coast as "Levi" Bower, one of the very few men who have gone from the outside into the far northern almost fabled land of the "blond Eskimos" thus describing them when he was here recently. "And I don't think it was Stefansson who first found them," Bower as-

aorted. Vilhalmur Stefansson, re

turned Canadian Arctic explorer, who has been credited with discovering the

strange tribe, agrees with Bower that

he did not find them nrst. Me aoes, however, claim that he made the first

study of the tribe and brought back to the outside world the first report! of its existence. According to Stefansson and Bower, a Captain Klinkerberg, master of the whaling schooner Olga in 1905 pushed northwest to Victoria Land where he found the blond tribe. On his return to the whaling base at Herschel Island, an Arctic Ocean point, he told of his findings. Stefansson, ' then at Herschel, heard Klinkenberg's 6tory and immediately went to Victoria, where he made a study of the natives. Bower claimed the "blond Eskimos" are really blond. Stefansson does not

go that far but saya they nave ngnt gray, almost blue eyes and a few have light hair and eyebrows. Bower pointed out that the "blond" natives have round full eyes while the other Eskimos of the far north have the slant eyes of Asiatics. "It looks as if the 'blond Eskimos' come from early Greenlanders or Scandinavian stock of some kind," Bower said. "I know they are not half white and half Eskimo because the halt breed Eskimos have black eyes and black hair. These white ones have light eyes and light skin and hair. The old men of the tribe have the same white features as the young. "Bows and arrows are used by them, they know nothing about tobacco and liquor, they make their fires with a sort of flint, they dress in skins, they spear their reindeer and club their fish, they won't eat outsiders' food and they speak a language similar to that of the Eskimo. "They are hospitable, friendly and square, too square, I think. If you give them anything they are not satisfied until they give you something in return. I gave one woman an empty baking powder tin and she immediately brought me a big skin. "We left a gun with them. Instead of using it to kill meat, the men seemed to think it was a plaything for when

I left they were shooting their bullets away at targets and wildly into the air. When they ran out of ammunition they probably turned the gun around and got some real use out of it as a club." Bower said he thought there were over 250 "blond Eskimos" on Victoria Land. It is not very probable that they will ever be molested much by the outside world for Victoria Land is far off the usual run of traders and whalers go into the Arctic no longer. Bower has served on whaling vessels in many parts of the north, and until his recent return to the States, had not been out of the Arctic for five years. On Stefansson's last trip he was steward on the schooner Polar Bear which Stefansson used for a

time. Stefansson took Bower into the "blond Eskimo" country. ;

Idly since the federal child labor law was declared unconstitutional June 5, last, on the basis of a report made by Investigators of the children's bureau of the department of labor.

But Little Labor or Attention

Needed to Insure Green Stuff for Table.

By P. G. HOLDEN.

E CAN have rhubarb fresh

from the garden all winter if we will devote but a little

time and labor to transferring the plants to the cellar. The proper time to remove rhubarb plants from the outdoor garden is late in the fall or early in the winter, after the top soil has frozen. Select vigorous plants and, with a sharp spade, dig them up carefully, allowing considerable dirt to cling to the roots. Place the plants close together in that part of the cellar where they will receive light the greater part of the day and where the temperature will not be too hot, but will be warm enough to thaw out the soil and keep the plants growing. The soil clinging to the roots will dry out rapidly and the plants should be frequently watered. Do not sprinkle them with a hose or water them too heavily, as there is danger of washing the soil from the roots. If given but very little attention the rhubarb will grow vigorously all winter, providing an abundance of crisp, pink stalks for pies or sauce. In the spring they may be transplanted to the outdoor garden and will continue their growth with but very little interruption. Celery can be left outdoors until late in the fall, but before severe freezing weather sets In should be dug up, allowing the soil to cling to the roots, and stored in the cellar in boxes. The plants should be set close together and the spaces between tilled with dirt or sand. Very little, if any, light is required for celery. Brussels sprouts and cauliflower can be transplanted to boxes in the cellar in the same manner as celery. Parsnips, carrots, beets, turnips and radishes may be stored, in sand or moist sawdust in the cellar or in an outdoor pit. Cabbages are best kept in a trench outdoors, but will keep very well for a while if buried in barely moist sawdust or sand In barrels or boxes in the cellar. Pumpkins and squashes can be kept for a limited period In a warm, dry part of the cellar. Potatoes should be stored in an outdoor pit or In a dry bin in the cellar, where the temperature is not high enough to cause them to sprut or low enough to freeze them.

I take it that the whole community will respond for the benefit of those for whom the campaign was planned. The result will show the preference of a free people. The ultimate voice of the people is the voice of God, and the American people." He spoke of reconstruction after the war. "After all, war, as desperate as it has been, is not without its compensations, the dark cloud is not without its silver lining, the country can stand always a resourceful nation, peaceful commanding that profound respect which it deserves." he ended.
