probably will remember the

like meals provided for them by the . transfer of money from the wealthy

I city waterworks department to the de-

American Quakers long after they have forgotten the name of the American Friends Service committee which will withdraw from Germany at the end of July after two and one-half years of relief work here. The Budget committee of the reichs-

tag recently approved an appropria

tion of 50,000,000 marks for the pur-;

chase of foodstuffs to continue the child-feeding program when the American supplies have been exhaustedThese supplies are now expected to last until Sept. 30. Dr. Bose, chairman of the German Central committee for Foreign Relief and director of the Food Ministry; said the government had granted the full amount he requested for this purpose but the Quaker feeding so strongly gripped the popular mind that some members of the party of the Left demanded a great

Increase in the federal grant for that

purpose. Serves Great Numbers The Friends' organization has been

established in 1,640 towns which contain about one-half of the entire population of Germany. Its supplies were stored in more than 300 warehouses and its food was prepared in more

than 250 kitchens and served from 8.360 feeding places, mostly schools and child-fare institutions. The money value of the American food provided has been estimated at 18,500,000. "This amount is less than

one-fourth the cost of a first-class battleship." said Francis R. Bacon of Philadelphia, chairman of the Friends' committee. He added that from the beginning ihe Quakers had the full support of the German government which, since October, 1920, furnished all the flour and sugar used in the ration given to the children. In addition, the German people supplied all the costs of insurance and distribution of the food while the Society of Friends paid the overhead expenses. The German contribution is estimated to average about two-thirds of the value of the cooked meals. Mr.' Bacon said that the withdrawal jof the Friends committee from this vork was made ' possible because it appeared that the Germans were now capable and prepared to carry It on themselves.

The American feeding reached its height in June and July last year when more than 1,000,000 children were receiving an extra meal daily through American bounty.

pleted treasury of the city safety department, a transaction that ordinarily is illegal. The waterworks department has a surplus of $17,000. The safety department is "broke." Money cannot be transferred from the waterworks department surplus, because that surplus was not raised by general ta-ation, the city law department has held. For six years, the waterworks has

been using Colonel, but he still is the property, of the safety department.

The horse is worth 550. He,ha3 been)

used by the waterworks department for 2,119 days, and it is estimated that his labor is worth reasonably $1 a day. City council at a recent meeting decided to "sell" Colonel to the water

works branch of the government for $50, and to present that department with a bill for $2,119 for his services for the last six years. The money legally is due the safety department, it is believed. If the money could have been collected immediately, it coald have been

used to pay the city police and firemen, members of the safety department, who have gone without compensation for two months.

However, it was learned that no appropriation had been made in the wa

terworks department budget, wnicn

would cover the debt, so it cannot be

provided for until the next budget Is

made up.

Wear Homemade Clothes To Protest Ganhi Term (By Associated Press) AHMEDABAD, India, May 26. Many members of the Indian communities In Zanzibar, British East Africa, have taken the oath to wear Swadeshi (home-made) clothes as a nrotest against the imprisonment of Mohandas K. Gandhi, the Indian non-;o-operation leader, according to advices received here. One of the meetings held in Zanzi

bar to decide upon a method of protest was attended by a large number of Hindu and Mohammedan women. More than 50 of them are reported ' to have taken the oath never again to wear foreign clothing. One Mohammedan woman whose principal business vas to deal in foreign-made clothes for women took the vow to abandon that business altogether and to cease from wearing foreign-made clothing herself. Many women are said to have burned clothes In their own homes. Although a number of meetings were held and two hartals (suspension of business) were declared, there was no suggestion of violence. Public prayers were said for Gandhi at the places of worship of all the Indian communities, and Indians who attendpd a mass meeting adopted resolutions congratulating Gandhi on his passive resistance. The meeting also expressed by resolution its "sense of jrreat concern for the present policy of ihe government" in India and hoped for an early peace "compatible with the rational dignity of India and thi empire." t ,
