Serbia Still in Need of Aid Says Head of Relief (By Associated 'Press) NEW YORK, Dec 11. Allan M. Gale of the Serbian Relief Committee, commenting on a recent dispatch from Belgrade, stating that Serbia was on her feet .again, having recovered from the immediate effects of the war, said: The Serbian Relief Committee of

America and all who are giving their lives and strength to the work, know that great as the results accomplished

appear in the aggregate, they are, In

comparison to the need, pitifully small

Much is made of the fact that this year's harvest" gives the new kingdom a surplus in cereals above its needs, that the food situation is under control and that actual starvation no longer menaces the people. But these facts have been long known by the relief agencies and all interested in

ei uia, aiiu nave ueeu veiy wiucij published by them. And it should be equally well known that' the harvest Includes the crops of Bosnia and Herzegovina, which, as Austrian territory during the war, suffered very little real damage. "There will perhaps be no genuine ; starvation in Serbia through the winter, though the food supply, neither in quality nor quantity is suitable or sufficient for the restoration of health and strength of young

children. One slight indication of this

Is to be seen in the recent shipment by Mr. Hoover's Administration of Relief of four large cargoes of powdered milk for use in central and southeastern Europe,. Including Serbia. "In Jugo-Slavia there are 500,000 fatherless children of whom 150,000 are absolutely destitute. Among them tuberculosis, eye and skin disease are rife. Of these children, up to July, less than 2,000 had been provided for, largely because of " the tremendous difficulties attending the work in an utterly disorganized community. The government at Bedgrade and the great American and English relief organizations are now working in thorough harmony in their efforts to carry these children safely through the winter. They can" only succeed if there is no Blacking of effort on the part of the American and British publics."

Mail Xmas Packages Early and Often, Asks Postmaster How about getting your Christmas packages mailed within the next week, or at least three days , before Christmas? the postoffice department is asking. The mails are increasing only a little each day,- and the- big rush may come all at once, as usual. "If everybody would begin mailing Christmas presents now, and not leave it until two days before Christmas to rush in here with packages for California, we could get everything out of the way . by Christmas day," said Postmaster Beck and Superintendent of Mails Clarence Foreman, Thursday. They explained all packages can be marked "Do Not Open . Unitl Christmas," but mail put in the postoffice two days before Christmas can not be assured delivery by Christmas eve. . .
