FOOD NOT ONLY NEED OF STARVING EUROPE, SAYS RELIEF WORKER

The American relief committees must do more than feed the war sufferers and the refugees in the near east, if they intend to provide lasting

relief for the thousands whose onlyj

hope in life is aid from America. This is the opinion of Mrs. Florence Spencer Duryca, who has just returned from Europe. She is the only woman member of a commission of thirty sent over by the near east committee at the invitation of the soviet government. Eleven countries were visited by the party, although the official inspection was limited to Armenia, Georgia and Turkey. Mrs, Duryea says that wonderful work is being done by the Americans committees in caring for 110,000 children, but that everywhere she was oppressed by the need that so much more should be done, and that the American people should be brought to realize that more money is essential to give more lasting aid. Education is Essential She believes that, next to food, edu

cation is the greatest essential. A

boat load of teachers, such as were sent 6ver to the Philippines in the early davs of our occupation there,

would effect untold good in the near

east, she believes.

"The first impression I got of the

near east was that it is a land of

orphans," Mrs. Duryea said. "It is tragic to see thousands and thousands

of helpless children in barren rooms, most of them blind from trachoma, which is the latest menace in the plague-ridden countries. "When, passing through street after street, you see the victims huddled in the dark passages and dare not touch them or objects near them, a chill of depression and hopelessness overtakes you. Many of the old Russian barracks have been taken over for shelter for the children and women. In one of these in Alexandropol 12.000 children are housed and the conges

tion is so great that in many instances four children have to sleep on one cot. Dependent on Food Supply. , "There are 45 committees of native women working under the American relief committee. Their help is invaluable, for they understand their people better than do the American workers. All work unceasingly, and do wonders with what they have, but they work under great difficulties, and there is always a fear that something will interfere with the inflow of provisions. There is always the possibility that some fresh outbreak will stop the railroads. The supplies must continue to come steadily, for if they were to stop for one month, all tho children would die. Because of transportation difficulties this spring, 1S,000 children were put on half rations in Alexandropol, and in six weeks 3,000 of them died. "One of the most terrific problems of the near east, though, is that of the refugees. They have poured into these

forlorn little countries from everywhere. In Constantinople alone are

100,000 refugees. These people are

homeless and friendless, hoping for aid from any quarter and dying when it does not come. Since it is impossible for the relief committee to help every one, they are specializing on the women and children. Families in

which are males must be refused aid. This just ruling is causing confusion

and a great deal of suffering, for in

some channels the very existence of

a father or brother has meant that the remainder of the family must ;rei on without help. Many of these men have committed suicide, knowing that their families would get help from the committees looking after the needy."

This furnished an object lesson of

the importance of developing ana

maintaining, under federal super- j

vision, a national highway system that

congress has not forgotten.

Ohio politics are being followed

closely in Washington. Next year the Buckeye state elects a full state

ticket and a United States senator. Chairman White of the Democratic national committee and former Gov

ernor Harmon, who sought the Demo

cratic presidential nomination in 1912, are under discussion for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination. Senator Pomerene will undoubtedly be renominated for his seat in the senate by the Democrats. Pomerene, now serving his second

term, stands out as one of the most prominent members of his party. He has made his mark in the senate. He was more or less an unknown quantity when he was first elected to the senate, but he had made himself so weU known by 1916, when he came up for re-election that year, that he was given liberal credit for-the 90,000 majority Ohio gave the Democratic national ticket. Daugherty Prefers Senate. It is generally reported that Harry M. Daugherty, the attorney general of the United States, will be the Republican candidate to make the race against Pomerene. The attorney general is popular in Ohio and is regarded a master politician. He was President Harding's campaign manager and

Mr. Harding's election was in a large measure due to Daugherty. As the story goes, Daugherty would prefer a seat in the senate to a seat in the cabinet. A lawyer by profession, and fond of his profession, he is fonder of politics; and as a senator

from Ohio and the recognized spokes

man in the senate for the administra

tion he would occupy a position much

to his liking, and he would have the

opportunity to supervise the campaign

for Mr. Harding's renomination. Daugherty, it is said, is a man of moderate means and has found that the cost of maintaining his position as a cabinet officer is entirely out of proportion to the salary he receives. While the salary of a senator is even less than the salary of a cabinet officer it is not so costly a position to maintain.

GREENVILLE, O., Sept. 23 John

W. Gilbert, through his attorneys, has filed an amended petition against the

Cincinnati Northern railway and James C. Davis, director general of

railways, in his suit for $5,000 dam

ages for injuries received at New Weston, August 12, 1918.

Mr. Gilbert, who is a merchant in

New Weston, was attempting to open the door of a freight car to get some goods which had been consigned to

him, having been told to do so by the agent. The car door was nailed fast and in attempting to open it the door fell on Mr. Gilbert, scarring up his face, causing a loss of memory and rendering him a physical wreck, hence the damage suit instituted against the railway company, negligence being charged on the part of the employes.

AT DEATH'S DOOR "Ten years of stomach trouble reduced me to a living skeleton. I had attacks of pain that doubled me up like a jack-knife and I was as yellow as a gold piece. No medicine or doctors helped me and was really at death's door. A lodge brother advised me to try Mayr"s Wonderful Remedy, and I found it to be the only medicine to touch my case."

To All Telephone Users Become a partner in the "Bell System" by purchase of American Telephone and Telegraph Company stock We believe that there are few, if any, concerns in this country whose positions are more secure

BECAUSE:

Financially Its assets in value equal not only all its indebtedness but also at least twice the par value of its outstanding stocks. Its stockholders have paid in, m cash, much more than the par value of the stock. There is no "water" in the capitalisation. Commercially Its growth is sure and steady regardless of the ever 'changing business conditions. As it has come to be more and more recognued as a necessity, its expansion is more rapid than the growth of the country itself. Earnings The American Telephone & Telegraph Company has never paid a dividend which it has not earned with a wide margin of safety. It is now earning at the rate of about $ia per share plus its equity in the undivided earnings of its controlled companies. Record For forty consecutive years the Company with its predecessor has paid uninterrupted dividends of at least $7.50 per share. The Directors have now placed the Company upon a $9.00 per year dividend basis. Prospects There is a large business in sight and the evidence of the past points to an endless increase. M

Distribution

The $515,000,000 stock of this Company is owned by more than 175,000 different people, an average of about 29 shares to a stockholder ! We believe that no other Company in the world, having no preferred stock, has so many stockholders. . It has many stockholders in every State and is adding new ones faster than ever before in its history. Politically The Company is "not in politics." The Public Commissions now know that this is true and they know that the Operating Companies endeavor to be fair with the public and with the Commissions. They therefore almost universally accord fair treatment to the Company. Character A Corporation may be quite right in all the above respects but stall be unsound because of its ma nagement. This company is sound. This Company has character, in its Management, sound, honest, faithful, intelligent character. Its traditions are those of fair treatment and efficient service to the public; its personnel is saturated with these ideals, from its President, H. B. Thayer, all through the organisation and through the organizations of its associate companies.

We recommend the purchase of its shares, which are now selling at about $107 per share, and should be glad to receive orders for any amount from one share up or to give any further information desired.
