ADEQUATE RAILROADS v IRRIGATION, RELIEF FOR CHINA'S FAMINES

Details of the suffering of the 60,- : 000.000 people In the famine stricken districts of northern China are related by Mrs. Kate C. Schneider of Richmond, who was in the Orient for some - time and visited the famine countryImmediate and permanent relief will be brought to the famine sufferers by

Americans working through the Red

Cross, with funds collected in the

v United States, all returned travelers agree. f The plan of relief has been laid out by Americans working in China under i"lhe direction of Chinese officials and , I'nited States minister, Charles F. Crane, it was announced. According to the people who have returned, the situation is as deplorable as that which existed in Europe v during the war. The south has enough crops to feed the entire country, but these cannot be transported because there is a lack of railroad facilities. To make7 the situation worse, the military in control has seized a large portion of the rolling stock to carry troops, thus lending to the destitution. Seek to Interest Bankers. . Immediate relief will be given as soon as possible, the Chinese preferring to have the work done by the Red Cross, to eliminate possible graft. The plan is to interest American bankers pnd business interests in the sale of bonds, the proceeds of which will be used to provide adequate railroads and to install complete irrigations systems which will eliminate any danger of a crop shortage in the future. The country will benefit largely, it is said, through both the work of relief and the construction of roads and

ditches because of the increased trade

that will result. As an indication of the good feeling f"-ow existing between China and the v United States, it is announced that fully 80 per cent of the youth of China now being sent abroad to be educated, come to this country. Formerly only 20 per cent came here.

OUTBURSTS BY MOB CHECKED BY TROOPS

(By Associated Press) WISE, Va-, Dec, 6. With the arrival early today of detachments of national guard troops , from Roanoke and Lynchburg, the authorities believed they had underv control the situation resulting from the 6torming yesterday of the county jail by a mob bent on lynching a negro charged with assaulting and robbing an aged white merchant. The determined resistance of Sheriff Corder and his deputies barricaded in the jail and the death of Tate Blondell, alleged leader of the mob, during the exchange- of

shots, effectively checked the mob until the arrival of the troops. Threats that another and larger mob was forming for an attack last night failed to materialize. A machine gun had been mounted on the jail and the defenders were ordered to "shoot to kill." So far as could be learned today the death of Blondell and the serious wounding of John F. Lewis, another alleged mob member, were the only casualties. Lewis has three LullPt wounds in the chest and his condition is said to be serious.
