WORK OF FEEDING GERMAN CHILDREN GOES RIGHT AHEAD

Food used by the American Friends' s Service committee for the Ger- " man child-feeding work during June amounted to 2,865 tons, according to a statement Just received from the central office. 20 South Twelfth street, Philadelphia. During that month 13,680,000 meals were served.- On June 30, when the statistical report was made up, 632,000 mothers and children were being fed dally in 88 cities. This included all the large cities and many small communities where the need was found to be especially acute. Hospitals, day nurseries, kindergartens, schools and also converted army barracks are used for distribution centers. It is interesting to note that stoves and cooking equipment formerly used for military purposes are now being largely adapted for the peacetime work of saving humanity from starvation and disease. The work of supplying this supplementary meal to the innocent victims of the war is being directed by a staff of 25 volunteer business men and women from America. 18,000 Germans Helping. Part or full time German volunteer i workers to a number approximating I 18,000 are actually doing the work of examining and selecting the children, J and of preparing, cooking and serving , the meals. All America is helping to finance the German child-feeding work. The cost of the food and transportation to Hamburg is supported by general contribution. Charles F. Jenkins, treasurer of the Service committee, reported : that during the first 10 days of August checks had been received from individuals In 22 states. One woman In ; Michigan cent $1.28, a sum realized 'from the sale of old newspapers. A , captain in the United States navy forwarded $30, "for relief of German children." The German government Is caring for the shipping, handling and issuence of the food from Hamburg to the cities of distribution, and have promised to supply the flour and sugar needed for the next year to the present American value of $2,400,000. Local German authorities or associations finance the preparation and distribution of the food. The recipients, when able, pay 25 pfennigs per meal. During the summer months when vegetables and fruits are more abundant the number of , children fed daily will be reduced to about half. Then as autumn and winter return there will be a gradual increase according to the need of the district. It is expected that the need for extra food will be just as serious next winter as during the past and plans are already made to again feed 600,000 by January. Cost To Be $7,000,000. It is estimated that the cost of food and transportation from Sept. 1, 1920, to June 1, 1921. will be $7,000,000. Living conditions in Germany are reported to be still very bad, although the country as a whole is earnestly striving to start industrial work. Salaried people are earning 800 to ?.000 marks a month not sufficient tr supply a family with proper food. Clothes of all kinds are prohibitive in price.
