FAMINE
CHINA
I ,
- -v-i a&mgzrmmif- -
The famine in China is crowding
. all else into the background. It has
seriously interfered with the progress
of education, and attendance at poor
ooys schools and Bible classes has
fallen off. China needs more Krai
and more money. Industrial refuge
homes have been opened, where cloth
tng .is made by refugee labor for
Chinese who have pawired the
clothes for food. Instruction fo
women and girls in North China ha
been started to teach them to mak
ha:r nets, for which there is a read
market in the treaty ports.
This information is contained in
letter received by H. W. Stone, gen
-ral secretary of the Portland Youn
Men s Christian association, from
Robert W. Clack, in charge of the as
eociation at Paotingfu, North China.
"I know that as the people of
America readjust themselves grad
uaJly to peace conditions you are
iiaving great new fields of opportun
ity opened to you," wrote Mr. Clack.
'"As for our opportunities out here,
there is one awful fact that pushes
all else in the background. That i
the famine. We are now getting on
forces pretty well organized to give
relief, but what we need is grain and
money and siiil more grain and
money.
Relief Workers Basjr.
"There are three large interna
tional organizations now working to
raise funds and see that they are
distributed where they will be admin
dstered efficiently. There are the re
lief societies of Pekin, Tientsin and
(Shanghai. While they are indepen
dent, there is a close co-operation be
tween them, so that there is no com
petition and overlapping. The great
er part of the funds the government
is trying to raise will probably be
administered through these societies.
"The whole affected area has been
divided among a number of local
committees, each affiliated with one
of the large societies, but responsi
ble for a definite area. These com
mittees are made up by a union of
the missions working in the field
with the Chinese benevolent societies.
Thus our Paotingfu union interna
tional famine relief committee is
made up of nine organizations: The
two Protestant missions, the French
Catholic mission, the Y. M. C. A., the
Red Cross society and three local
Chinese charitable societies and the
Paotingfu Commercial club.
1 ,000,000 Face Starvation.
"The field for which we are imme
diately responsible consists of 12
counties, with an area of about 6000
square miles, and a population of
about 2.500,000. of whom 1,000,000 will
starve if we cannot get relief to them.
And ours is only one, and not the
worst, either, of more than a dozen
of .such fields.
"We have organized more than 150
centers from which we can distrib
ute grain as fast as we can get it.
Of these ,111 are schools where we
teach and feed about 100 -pupils each,
and 20 are soup kitchens feeding
more than 10,000 each day In all. We
have about a dozen orphanages tak
ing care of children who are . aban
doned by their parents, and are open
ing three or more shelters to talcel
care of girls who would otherwise be
sold by their families. We have
opened four industrial refuges where
cloth and clothing are made by ref
uge labor and clothe those who have
pawned their clothes for food, and
have opened 20 classes of about 100
each for teaching women and girls to
make hair nets, for which there is
a ready market in the treaty ports.
This makes them - selfrsupportins
after about one month's training.
Grain Declared Needed.
"This sounds quite imposing, but
a comparison will show you that it
only scratches the surface of the
need. We have 500 tons of grain due
this week from Manchuria, but we
need 50,000 tons before the wheat
harvest in June.
"We are getting most of our funds
through the Pekin international re
lief society, but they cannot raise the
money nearly as fast as it is needed.
2 understand that a campaign for
funds is being started in America.
Please remember us and do all you
can to boost it along.
"Though famine relief is our chief
Interest at present, and though the
missions are practically discontinu
ing all their other work, our associa
tion constituency of city men and
oya is not so directly affected by th
famine and we must keep up our
work for them about as usual."

Mrs. Katherine Rose Hoyt, native of

Mrs. Hoyt, who was formerly Miss
Katherine Rose Platz, charming
daughter of pioneer parents of the
Rose City, won the honor or Deing
queen of the fete with 51,223 votes to
her credit.
It was in 1909 that Mr. Hoyt sold
cut his doughnut business to A. A.
oover and went to Calirornia with
rs. Hoyt. They had formerly lived
at the corner of East Twenty-first
and Multnomah streets in the Irving
ton district, where Mr. Hoyt had erect
ed a beautiful home.
The story of the achievements of
Mr. Hoyt, who in 15 years rose from
the rank of an errand boy in a gro
eery store to be one of the millionaires
of the west, reads like fiction. He
was born in 1885 in Portland. After
leaving school he was employed by
F. Dresser & Co.. grocers. He worked
there for a year or so, when he sud
denly decided to go into business for
himself. He resigned and with a
month's pay built his first doughnut
factory, a wooden shack 12 feet
square. There he made Boston brown
bread and cookies which he peddled
from house to house. Later he began
the making of doughnuts. His busi
ness grew rapidly and during the time
of the Lewis and Clark fair he fur
nished doughnuts to practically all
of the concessions, outside restau
rants and lunch counters, besides
hotels and cafes. This was his first
rung of the laaaer or success, no

Mrs. Hoyt was motoring through
southern California when she heard
that her frienda had placed her name
as a candidate for the queen of the
mardi gras.

Efforts -to reach an. agreement
on widely different plans to remove
what are described as inequalities and

states against women, possibly
through the creation of '-n entirely
new national organization, will be
made by the woman's party at its an

Wednesday.
Delegates declare that waile the
main object for which the pirty was

to continue todeperfd upon obtaining
national legislation favorable to their
cause by "hold'ng the party in power

women's legislation among the con

Others propose more clearly defined
political activities in the mates, while
still others would enter the political

BEST FOR WESTERN FUEL
For the reason that wood will be the most used fuel for many years to come,
the firepot of the COLONIAL PIPELESS was designed with this in mind. It
will, however, burn coal, briquets or coke equally well by reversing the grates.

Mr. Dayton said that he was able

as he believed, as a result of the plans
which were going forward for the

pay interest and expenses, he said.
Today I am in the sunshine of pros

the cause of this change in me.
