HOOVER PLEADS FOR EUROPEAN CHILDREN

BOSTON, Dec. 3 "I would rather have the American Hag implanted in the hearts of 'the children of Europe than flying over any citadel of victory," said Herbert Hoover today in presenting to a gathering of business men and women here the obligation upon this country to supply the needs of three and a half millions of youthful sufferers by the war in eastern and central Europe. The occasion marked the formal opening in New England of the nation-wide campaign for $23,000,000 which it is estimated will be required to keep the children alive until the next harvest. "These are children of friend and rnrmy, of Jew and Gentile, of Catholic and Protestant," said Mr. Hoover. "No matter what conflict there may be as to our views on our international relationships, this mass of children is no part of our contentions. "The war collapsed among both allies and enemy in the face of the greatest famine in 200 years. The food supnJy for all that 200,000,000 people east of the old western front was largely exhausted by poor crops and destruction. " V Moral Issue "There is in this children's problem a great moral issue. We are today feeding enemy as well as friend. We aro today replacing hate in the minds of this next generation. With the completion of -this final effort

we shall have given to American i

c haracter a lift in pride of a great duty well clone a pride in a practical helpfulness that distinguishes our people. We shall have given to Europe her foothold back to life again. "These children are the obligation of every man and woman who has a penny more than his own children and his neighbors' . children require. Twenty years from now they will form

the basis of civilization in Europe. If we are to preserve the foundations i

AMERICAN GOAL TO ENTER FOREIGN TRADE (By Associated Press) ; PARIS, Dec. 3. Large arrivals of American coal at French ports are causing much comment in the coal trade of France, especially among the English coal interests here.. "England is losing her privileged position in the world as a coal exporter," the Paris edition of the Daily Mail quotes Samuel,- of Instone and company,' a

coal firm, as saying with reference to

this situation. American deliveries, says the newspaper, are now being made at $14 a ton, as against $29 two months ago. It sums the situation up thus: "England is threatened in the world's coal market. America is aiming at obtaining control, and among foreign consumers will benefit from this free competition." American coal can be imported now at about ten shillings a ton lower than English coal of corresponding qualities.

NEW YORK BUILDERS IN MORE HOT WATER

NEW YORK, Dec. 3. The joint legislative committee investigating New York's "building trust" today heard its own accountant testify that the minute book of the Builders' Supply Bureau showed Indications of substitution or interpolation.

Minutes previous to that date also "showed signs" of having been substituted, he added.

TREASURY OFFICERSCONSIDER FARMERS

(By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Dec. 3. Treasury officials have given more thought to the situation the farmers face as a result of the falling prices, of their products than they have to any other question, but they have arrived at no solution of the problem. Secretary Houston declared today before the joint senate and house agriculture committee. The legislators are conducting hearings with a view to recommending legislation to relieve the farmers. "I don't know of any feasible measures in the way of producing any marked change in the situation," said the treasury secretary, who declared that he knew of no feasible means the treasury could adopt to furnish the relief that might not bring about worse conditions than now obtain. Mr. Houston said he had "grave doubts" that a revival of the war finance corporation would help, explaining that that organization was created as a war emergency measure.
