Davl aon, chairman or the Hoard of Gov oniiira of the Ipbkuh of lied Croaa So clellea, said: "Aa chairman of the convention of Red Cross soclntlea com posed of representative of twenty seven nation that met recently In Geneva, 1 aiu custodian of authorita tive reporta recording appalling con illllona among nillllon of people liv ing In eastern Kurop. "One of the moat terrible tragodlea of the hlst'.ry of the human race ia be ing enacted wtthln the bread belt of territory lying between the llaltlc and the lllack and Adriatic mas. "This area includes tha new Baltic states Poland, Chechoslovakia, The Ckralne, Auatrta, Hungary, Rotimanla, Montenegro, Albania and Serbia. "The reports which come to us make It clear that In these war ravaged lands rlvllUatlon haa broken down. IMaeaao, be l avement and Buffering are present In practically every houae hold. while food and clothing are In sufficient to make life tolerable. "Men, women and children are dy ing by thouaanda, and over vast once civilised areas there are to be found neither medicinal appliances nor medi cal skill sufficient to cope with the devastating plaguea. "Wholesale starvation Is threstened in Poland this summer unless ahs can procure food supplies In large qnantl ilea. There are now approximately '.T,0,000 cases of typhua In Polaud and 11 the area occupied by Polish troops. Woret Typhus Epidemls ls History, "This Is already on of the worst typhus epidemics In the world's his tory. In Oalicla whole towrt are crippled and business suspended, in some districts there is but on doctor to each 1 50.000 people. "In the Ukraine, wa wars told, ty phua and (nfluenia have affected moat of the population. "A report from Vienna, dated Febru ary 12, aald: 'There are ratlona for three week. Death stalks tnrougn the streets of Vienna and takes un hindered toll.' "Budapest, according to our Informa tlon. is one vast city of misery and suffering. The number of deaths Is double that of births. "Typhus and smallpox have Invaded the four countries composing tiecno- Slovakia, and there la lack of medi- olnea, aoap and phyalclana. In Serbia typhua baa broken out again and there are but 200 phyalclana to minister to the needa of that entire country. "Returning to the United States a tow week aso with all these horrors ringing li my eara, I found myself nnce more In a land whoae granaries were overflowing, where health and plenty abounded and where life and activity and eager enterprise were In the full flood. "I asked myself: 'What If this plague and famine were her In ths great errltory between the Atlantic aea board and the Mississippi valley, which roughly parallels the extent of these ravaged countrlea and that 66,000.000 of our own people condemned to Idle neaa by lack of raw material and whose fields had been devastated by Invasion and rapine were racked by starvation and pnatllence and If we had lifted up our voices and invoked the attention of our brother In happiel Kurope to our own deep misertea and our cries had fallen on deaf ear would we not In our despair exclaim against their heartlessnes.' Only Three Waya to Help Europe. "There are only three ways by which these stricken lands can secure up piles from the outside world. One Is by payment, one by oredlt and the third is by exchange of commodities. If these peoplea tried to buy materlala and supplies in America at the present market value of vhelr currencies uBtrla would have to pay forty timea the original cost, Germany thirteen times, Greece Just double, Checho slovakia fourteen and Poland fifty times. These figures are official and lire a true Index of the economic plight of these countries. "It is clear, therefore that they can not give us gold tor the things they miiBt have, nor have they either pro ducts or securities to offer In return for credit. If only they could obtain raw material which these Idle millions of theirs could convert Into manufact ured products they would have some thing to tender the world In return for Its raw material, food and medicine. But if they have neither money nor credit how are they to take this first great 'step towards redemption, On half the world may not eat while the other half starves. How long do you believe the plague of typhus that Is taking a hideous death toll in Esthonia and Poland and the Ukraine and eat ing along the fringes of Germany and Cxecho-Slovakla will confine itself to these remote lands?
