AID FOR ILIIi Million of Rockefeller Founda tion Already Spent to Re t Iieve Noncombatants. 2 MORE SHIPS SAIL SOON First Cargo ot Food Distributed to Snrferers in Stricken Nation and Commission Is Stndyins Best Means of Helping. NEW YORK, Dec 6. The Rocke feller Foundation already has spent about Jl.000.000 tor the relief of the etai-ving population of Belgium. The foundation further "is ready to spend millions of dollars if necessary in this direction." This announcement is contained in B. statement detailing the activities of the foundation, which was authorized tonight by John D. Rockefeller. Jr.. as president of the foundation. Regarding the relief work in Bel gium, the statement says further: "The foundation thus far has dis patched one shipload of food. 4000 tons, to Belgium, which already has been, received and distributed; it is now loading a second ship in New York harbor, which will carry 6500 tons, and lias purchased for delivery at .Phila delphia to a third ship 280,000 bushels of wheat. These three shiploads rep resent an expenditure of about $1,000. 000. It has also sent a commission to Europe to advise as to how and where further relief to non-combatants may be most effectively provided and is ready to spend millions of dollars if necessary in this direction." HEADS BAKED TO OID GliOIVST "Americans Save Saved TTs From Starvation," 1st Grateful Cry. ROTTERDAM, Dec. 6. via London. Tor the past fortnight we all have keen relying on American food and it saved us from starvation," was the statement made today by a Belgian committeeman, distributing American relief shipments in Liege Province. "All our grain was exhausted," he con tinued, "because all of it was requisi tioned for the use of the German army. With the exception of a small supply of meat and a meager Quantity of field crops we had nothing. " "The Americans have saved us from starvation,' was the cry on every lip. livery American seen in Liege was bailed as a benefactor. Whenever an automobile carrying an American flag passes in the streets the people take off their hats. "Seventeen thousand tons of wheat has been received in Liege," the com mitteeman said, "and 85,000 people are being supplied with nearly a half pound each day. It is not a great quan tity for a grown man when he has little else, but ft is saving us from starva tion. "Rich and poor alike receive the same amount. Our supply of bread is running out already. We are mixing a considerable percentage of potato flo.ur with the wheat, and by this means we can exist another three or' four days, by which time we are praying that more American wheat will arrive. "We need 200 tons of wheat dally. The only other food we are able to dis- irmuie is ies man a- iuuu " " i' wwi, until now, about a pound of potatoes laily. with a tiny quantity of meal oc casionally. Distribution is difficult. because the Germans commandeered practically all our means of transport, but the whole province is receiving the same treatment. "In offering our heartfelt thanks to the American people we pray them to allow their generosity to continue, for without them we should have starved and without them we must starve." SHIP FOR OREGON FOOD NAMED "Washington's Gift to Go on Same Vessel to Belgians. NEW YORK, Dec 6. Contributions to the American Commission for Relief of Belgium from the states of Wash ington and Oregon, which were de clared to be rapidly reaching the pro portions of a shipload, valued at $300,- 000, will be carried in a ship assigned by the commission the Washington It was announced today. The first ships of the commission to leave New York will be the Maslcin onge and the St. Kentigren, both of which are now loading in this harbor and whose total cargoes are valued at $600,000. The ships are expected to call Wednesday and Thursday, respec tively. CONGRESS READY TO OPEN (Continued From First Page.) passed the House at the last session, end rural credits legislation. At least seven of the great annual supply measures of Congress are to be rushed, so as to report them to the llouso before the Christmas holidays. These are the legislative, executive end judicial, the District of Columbia, fortifications, pensions, military, post office and rivers and harbors appro priation bills. When the House convenes the busi ness before it will be the proposed financial relief of the cotton states, under an agreement reached at the last session. Cotton Currency Scents Doomed. Representative Henry, chairman of the rules committee, says he is pre pared to renew his fight for the t250. 000.000 cotton currency bill as a substitute for a currency measure for enlarging the amount of currency that can be based on commercial paper, a measure that the Kederal Reserve Hoard and Administration leaders in Congress have agreed is no longer necessary. Chairman Glass, of the House cur rency committee, who pressed this commercial paper bill at the last ses sion, has abandoned his efforts for it. The indications are that the cotton proposition will be defeated and a con ference of Senators and Representa tives from the cotton states will be held tomorrow night or Tuesday morn ing to discuss the subject. Members already in Washington have Informally discussed the military sltua tion, particularly the agitation started by Representative Gardner, of Massa chusetts, in behalf of his resolution for an investigation into the preparedness of the United States for war. The reso lutlon to investigate has been pending In the House since the latter part of last session and Senator Lodge, of Mas sachusetts, plans to introduce a similar resolution in the Senate. Administration Opposed to Inquiry. The subject is certain to precipitate lively discussion, but Administration leaders and the President are under stood to be opposed to the passage of the resolution, arguing that all facts relating to the condition of the Army BELGIUM Uf- IIIED and Navy are known or available with out such an inquiry. In this connection, too, the appropria tions for the Army and Navy will fur ther open debate on the military situa tion. Both the military and naval com mittees of the House have been at work on the supply bills and will continue dally sessions, beginning tomorrow. General Crozler. chief of ordnance of the Army, is to appear before the mili tary affairs committee Wednesday to discuss appropriations for National de fense. . In the naval committee the battle ship construction programme is the chief subject of interest. Secretary of the Navy Daniels will appear before the committee in the course of the week to discuss the building programme and naval requirements. Increased Naval Outlay Urged.- Champions of Increased naval con struction are certain to urge a three or four battleship programme, the erection of more torpedo-boats and - submarines and increased outlays for aviation work. Rivers and harbors appropriation's, which were greatly curtailed at the last session, are to be pressed again, but it is not likely, according to party lead ers, that any new projects will be urged. Another measure which will occupy much attention of the session will be the ship-purchase bill, which, it is un derstood, will be Included in the Admin istration legislative programme. A conference on the subject will be held this week. Constitutional amend ments for suffrage and National, prohi bition also are pending. "President Wilson is for my cotton warehouse bill and it will pass the House," declared Representative Lever, of South Carolina, tonight. He added that Chairman Henry, of the rules com mittee, would report tomorrow a rule to consider it, that committee already having agreed to It. The bill is a sub stitute for a similar measure that al ready has passed the Senate and is de signed to make the purpose of the leg islation more clear. Appropriations Will Be Larger. "I have no doubt," Mr. Lever said, that the estimates to the various Con gressional committees show large in creases over last year. The Increase in the estimates of the Secretary of Agri culture to Congress tomorrow, aggre gating 2U,706.000, constitute an in crease of $840,000, and this increase is probably the lowest of the big appro priation drafts. "The agricultural bill probably will not provide the money needed for the suppression of the livestock' foot-and-mouth disease epidemic, but a' separate bill probably will be reported to the House,' with an appropriation aggregat ing 14,0VU,OUU." WHITLOCK IS HIGH COURT BELGIANS PUT ALL TROUBLES UP TO AMERICAN MINISTER. Germans Also Respect Him, bnt Would Like III rar Removed He Watches Them Before Day. BRUSSELS. Nov. 6. (Correspondence of the Associated Press.) Brand Whit iock, the American Minister, is subject to great demands on his "sympathetic duet." He is the court of last appeal by Belgians from the decision and orders of the German military admin istration. Belgians can hardly speak to him without tears in their eyes. He has become one of the heroes of the coun try. They come to him with every variety ot trouble, if there is illness In their families, or if news has been received of death or injury to rela tives at the front and In the thousand contentions that arise between in dividuals and some officer or non-com missioned officer of the German army or occupation. Mr. Whltlock's position with the Ger man military people is also extraordi narily strong, even though they may prefer that he was not here. They seem never to have resented seriously nis going to tne marKets at 5 or 6 o'clock in the morning and preventing German commissary people from taking an, or nearly all ot the stocks of food. He Is being actively supported by the Marquis de Villalobar, the Spanish .Minister, wno used to be in Washing ton as Minister, but, as he is in delicate health, he Is not able to do as much as he would like. Mr. Whitlock's health also seems to have suffered by ms great responsioillties. FRIGATE UNHURT BY ST0RM Constellation Towed In Schooner Is Ashore Off Carolina Coast. NORFOLK, W. Va, Dec. 6.

G EORGE ARLISS. In Louis N. Park er's masterpiece. "Disraeli," will be-seen for the first time by Port land theater-goers tonight at the Hei lig Theater, where he comes for a week's engagement, with special mati nees Wednesday and Saturday. The play is a comedy of romance and dramatic interest of broad appeal. Mr. Arliss' impersonation of Disraeli has been considered his most successful role, in which the wit, gallantry, mag netism and forcefulness of England's most famous Prime Minister is bril liantly portrayed. His achievement in the characterization of Disraeli is said to mark the best work of a stage career that has provided many Important interpretations. In wrlttng Disraeli" Mr. Parker was not blind to the romantic possibilities of his subject, and he displays Disraeli not only as a statesman of brilliant achievements, but also as a sort of good fairy to a pair of young lovers, who are near estrangement over tem peramental difficulties. The motive of the story is Disraeli's purchase of the Suez Canal for Great Britain, and the manner In which he outwitted the crafty plans of the Russian govern ment. The production scenlcally is described as most attractive and interesting, par ticularly the brilliant ensemble effects tn the last act. representing the recep tion hall in Downing street just before the presentation to the viueen. Mr. Arliss' company includes such well-known players as Ernita Lascelles. Margaret Dale, Florence Arliss, Lilla LACK OF DEFENSE DECLARED GRAVE Humiliation of United States Feared by National League, Issuing Warning. EARLY REMEDY DEMANDED Country Cannot Count on Friend ship of Any Government, Says Chairman, Citing Violations of Belgium and Ch'ina. WASHINGTON. Dec 6. (Special.) Declaring that Immediate measures must be taken by Congress for ade quate National defense, the National Defense League in a statement today by its chairman. Representative Julius Kahn, ranking minority member of the House military affairs committee, as serted that the present defenselessness of the United States is appalling. "The state of our defenses is terrify ing to all citizens who reflect on our situation," declared Mr. Kahn. "An attack by any first-class power would inevitably lead to National hu miliation, crushing defeats would cer tainly occur. Territory would be wrenched away, our seacoast cities possibly laid in ashes or held for enor mous ransoms, our. merchant marine such as it is, swept from the seas; loss of Alaska, Hawaii Porto Rico, the Philippines and capture of the Panama Canal. This is the specter which might loom unexpectedly on the horizon. Increased Defense Is Wanted. "Today ' we stand isolated in world politics. We cannot count on the friend ship of a single nation. "Therefore it is imperative that we increase and maintain our Navy and Army and all our defenses to a reason able degree of strength and prepared ness. "That we are not prepared now must De evident to alL witn snort-term enlistments we should begin at once the creation of a reserve that in a few years would en able us to put a mobile army of a half a minion men in the field. "Our Navy lacks thousands of seamen and officers. It is far too small in view of our great position in the world. Our expanding commerce, a possible struggle for dominion in the Pacific, the defense of the Monroe Doctrine and protection of the Panama Canal. "We should build sufficient battle ships or swift battle cruisers annually with a large number of submarines, torpedo-boats and auxiliary vessels. "Our National Guard ought to num ber 500,000 well-trained men instead of 120.000 paper strength. Ammunition Is Declared Short, "Our field artillery is entirely In adequate with not enough ammunition for one brief campaign. "Our coast defenses are woefully un dermanned, with a shortage of ammu nition. "Should we be attacked we would be in an exceedingly perilous position. "The European cataclysm and the fate of Belgium as well as the violation of the neutrality of China are a warn ing to the people of the United States. "Notwithstanding all this, the peace propagandists, despite the utter futil ity of their efforts for years, are re doubling their output of disarmament piffle and are indulging in fatuous fan cies of security based on deceptive peace treaties. "Common sense and ordinary pru dence point out what we must speed ily do." BOMB DESTROYS FAMILY Fire Started by Explosion Causes Deaths of Four. NEW YORK. Dec. 6.

"I Intend to see Dow Walker, super intendent of the Multnomah Club, to morrow," said Mr. Fairman. "After I have talked with him I will know better what steps to take next.

Goodwin, publicity manager for the Oaks Amusement Park, said yesterday that MIbs Fairman had been in charge of hundreds of dollars at the Oaks swimming tank, and that no one there doubted her honesty. "Miss Fairman was popular with the crowds at the Oaks," said Mr.-Goodwin. "She was in charge of the lockers there for a season and a half. During that time she could have taken hun dreds of dollars. Much of the money probably never would have been missed. Miss Fairman was especially fond of the children. She taught them, and women also, to swim. This was not one of her duties. She did It out of pure good nature." The girl's funeral will be held next Tuesday from St. James' English Lutheran Church at West Park and Jefferson streets at 2 F. M. Interment will be at Rlverview Cemetery. It is said a stenographer suspected the girl of theft at the Multnomah Club and reported it to Mr. Walker.

LONDON, Dec. 6. Speaking at a great demonstration at Tuam. Ireland, today, John K. Redmond, leader of the Irish Nationalist party, replied to state ments that Ireland was not doing her duty1 In the present crisis. He quoted official statistics showing that, despite the fact that emigration had drawn from Ireland the. flower of her population, there were serving witn the military forces ofi.th crown on November 30, 89.000 Irishmen, who had been in the army before the war began or who had joined as reservists or recruits. If to that were added tens of thou sands of Irish recruits who were join ing the colors in Great Britain, or were now in the ranks of the Canadian, Australian or New Zealand contingents, he said, it was safe to say that from 130,000 to 140,000 Irishmen wre with the colors.

He said that 10.112 Ulster volunteers had gone to the col ops from Belfast, while in the same city the Nationalist volunteers, who represented only a quarter of the pop ulation, had contributed 8513 men. This, he believed, was only the begin ning cf what Irishmen would do.
