FAMINE UNDER CONTROL
Soviet Production to Be Much
Greater Than Last Year,
Reports Mr. Hoover.
' WASHINGTON, D. C July 15.
Special.) A total of 788,878 tons
or 140 Bhlploads of food and medi
cine had been provided for starving
Russians by the American relief
administration up to July 1. Amer
ican relief is feeding 5,300,000 adults
and 3,250,000 children. Several mil
lion persons have been inoculated,
loss of life has been largely stopped
and famine and plague placed under
control. A total of $59,498,000 was
usee in the work.
These facts are contained in a re
port to President Harding, issued by
Herbert Hoover, secretary of com
merce and chairman of the relief
administration.
The report, in part, follows:
.The 'total of material handled by the
relief administration may he summarized
as follows:
Short tons.
Cereals for seed and food 666.615
Beans and peas and special seeds 9,205
Condensed and evaporated milk... 55.111
Bug-ar 15.464
Fats 9.277
Cocoa. 3,395
Uedical supplies, clothing and sun
eundrles 29,721
1 Total 788.878
! $59,498,000 Is Mobilized.
The estimated resources mobilized from
all Quarters by the American relief ad
ministration for distribution under its
agreed control will comprise the follow
ing approximate sums up to the end 'ot
the present campaign. No appeal for
jrablio crarlty has been made by the
relief administration because it was con
sidered that much larger financial meas
ures were not only necessary to success
fully meet the situation, but also that
such appeal would greatly embarrass our
home charities who have been much
strained during the past winter by un
employment: ministration food remittances, sundryshr

' Overhead Is Saved.
Under the stipulations of our agreement
with the Russian authorities they have
, furnished &U internal transportation,
warehouses, distribution and equipment
at their own cost Furthermore, the re
lief administration deducts a margin for
the service of remitting food orders from
persons in the United States to spectflo
m jiussia. -rne amount realized
from this margin will apparently exceed
the overhead of the administration and
becomes a substantial contribution to the
children's relief. Therefore, no single cent
of administration or distribution cost has
been deducted from congressional funds
or donations through this organization.
In addition to the above amounts the
' Friends' service- committee, as the result
of public appeals, has purchased $415,000
of supplies from the relief administra
tion and have made pome direct ship
ments to their own distribution agencies.
Furthermore, the various' communist
committees in the United States have se
cured public charity for supplies sent
directly- to the soviet authorities esti
mated by them at about $500,000.
8150,000 Persons Fed.
Belief administrative personnel at home
and abroad comprises about 200 Ameri
cans with about 80,000 Russians under
their direction. They were conducting
15,700 kitchens and distributing stations,
feeding In round numbers about 3,250,000
children and 5,300.000 adults, a total of
about 8,550,000 persons. This number
will somewhat increase up to harvest.
The medical supplies have enabled the
great typhus, typhoid, smallpox and fam
ine fever epidemics to be kept under
measurable control. Some millions of
people have been inoculated for various
diseases and other sanitary measures pu
into force.
I ant advised by our Russian staff
that the relief administration is now
reaching all accessible persons whose
lives are in Jeopardy and that the loss
of life directly due to starvation ceased
some time since, although most every
one in Russia is hungry. There was con
siderable loss of life early In the wlntei
which would have been much abated had
the Russian railways been able to trans
port the large surplus of supplies which
the American relief administration main
tained in Russian ports.
The American relief administration
supplies are sufficient to carry through
until the harvest and hive in h.j
surplus which will.be devok'd to the
further Bupport of waif and destitute
uujiuieu aiter mat aate.
Harvest to Be Ample.
The other American organizations men
tioned above as doing their own distribu
tion are providing for approximately
100,000 persona In addition to the
American effort our advices indicate that
about 400,000 persons are being supported
by the combined effort of the other coun
tries of Europe. The total contribution
of all such countries amounts to about
so.uuu.ouu ana tne total supplies they
have shipped to Russia have been about
45,000 tons.
It is too early to give an accurate
opinion as to the results of this August
harvest. The soviet authorities have an
nounced that it will be ample for next
year. It is certain that the famine region
will produce three or four times the quan
tity of food it did last harvest, mostly
due to the Iargs shipments of seed. It
also appears that climatic conditions are
more favorable to the harvest from the
remaining area of Russia than they were
last year. The degeneration of agrlcul
tur does not, howover, promise much
hope of surplus. Whatever the supply
may be,, it seems likely there will ba
sporadic hardship in some localities due
to the breakdown in distribution; ex
treme poverty will continue in the cities
and the Jewish communities and further
more one result of the shifting popula
tion and the ravages of famine has been
a considerable body of waif and desti
tute children that will require time for
reabsorption. The great famine is, how
ever, under control and the situation
promises much better after the harvest.
Workers Are Landed.
The possible extension of relief work
after harvest requires more considera
tion 'before decision is reached; in any
event the considerable resources obtained
by the soviet authorities from the con
fiscation of church treasures specifically
for relief purposes places them In posi
tion to care for a large part of the desti
tute children. The American relief ad
ministration would, - of course, endeavor
to co-operate in a- solution of the prob
lem of children and others.
I cannot fail to refer to the obligation
we hold to the 200 of eur citizens who
have been engaged in the conduct of
i these operations, all of them at a per
sonal sacrifice or danger and most of
them under great hardship. Many of our
staff have suffered from typhus, of which
Mr. Blandy died; four or five have been
retired from physical collapse. Thel
task has been difficult beyond descrip
tion in a country of degenerate trans
port; with government, economic and so
cial life Just emerging from chaos.
I iV
ava this extort has stemmed one
!of the greatest catastrophes that has
foIlOT ed the war. There la a deep feel- i
I Intr of El-atitude In the minds of the 1
. Russian people and the results will. I am
I sure, be of lasting satisfaction to the
i American people. Without It certainly
many millions of Deonle would have died
from starvation; millions more would
have perished from the disorder and dis
ease that would have followed. ...
MERGER OPPONENTS HIT
Challenge Issued to Bureau Fight
ing Rail Consolidation.
THE OREGONIAN NEWS BU
REAU, WASHINGTON, D. C July
15. Wallace M. Alexander, president
of the San Francisco chamber of
commerce ana chairman of the Cali
fornia state-wide committee against
Southern Pacific-Central Paciflo
dismemberment, issued a challenge
today to the bureau here which,
masquerading as the "producers and
shippers of the .Pacific coast," has
been putting out press propaganda
in opposition to the consolidation of
the two roads. -
The fight on the Southern-Central
Pacific grouping has in the last few
days been conducted under a new
name, "The California committee of
producers and shippers." Mr. Alex
ander demands that the opponents
of the Southern Pacific come out in
the open and give the names of
some of the individuals in their or
ganization which is said to have
complained to the department of
justice that the Southern Pacific
was trying to defeat the recent de
cision of the supreme court in the
merger case. Mr. Alexander said:
"1 respectfully urge my fellow
citizens throughout California and
the Pacific coast to continue placing
themselves on record against the
dismemberment of the Southern Pacific-Central
Pacific system to the
end that there shall be no possible
misunderstanding of our position as
shippers, growers, merchants and
citizens. In doing this we hold no
brief for any railroad and repre
sent only the public interests.
STUDENTS GET PASTOR
Rev. H. J. Thorpe Asked to Take
Over Work at Eugene.
A student pastor for the Nor
wegian Lutheran church has been
authorized for the University of
Oregon, according to a request from
the Pacicic coast board of the
church and from the Trinity Lu
theran church in Eugene to Rev. H.
J. Thorpe of this city to take over
the work there. The board from
the Paciflo coast district, with head
quarters in Seattle, recently spent
several days in Eugene investigat
ing the advisability of authorizing a
student pastor there. The number
of students affiliated with the
church who attend the university is
said to have proved conclusively to
the board the merits of the plan.
Rev. Mr. Thorpe declared 'yester
day that he had not decided whether
or not to accept the call to the Eu
gene position. In the event that he
does accept he will also fill the pul
pit of the Trinity Lutheran church,
which is situated near the Univer
sity of Oregon campus. Rev.
Thorpe is at t present pastor of
Bethlehem Lutheran church in this
city.

LATE EVENTS ANALYZED
Recent Primaries Held Far From
Indicating Widespread Dis
satisfaction in Party.
' BY MARK SULLIVAN.
(Copyright by the New York Evenin
Fost. Furnished by Arrangement.)
WASHINGTON, D. C, July 15.
(Special.) We are now close to the
middle of, the current political year.
Eleven states have held their pri
maries and these 11 states are so
widely distributed geographically,
and so diverse in their economic in
terests and political temperaments.
that it ought to be .possible to make
some generalizations - about the
present political temper of the
country.
It ought to be possible but it
isn't. Many things are happening
and some of them are strange, but
they have little relation to each
other. Later on this article will
attempt to make some, reflections
on what is happening; but those re
flections will not be in the nature
of generalizations. What most im
presses the writer is the looseness
and inexactness of most of the gen
eralizations that are . commonly
made.
The most frequent of the gener
alizations commonly made on the
results of the primaries Is one
which lumps the victories of Bev
ermge in Indiana, of Pinchot in
Pennsylvania, of Brookhart in Iowa
and of Frazler over McCumber in
North Dakota and treats them as if
they were similar. This is a mis
take. It is true there was ..sfltne
similarity between the victories of
Pinchot and Beveridge, but the vie
tory of Brookhart in Iowa had no
relation whatever to the other two.
Brookhart, when he comes to the
senate, will be no more like Bever
idge that he will, be like Wads
worth of New York, or Pepper of
Pennsylvania. In fact, so much that
is misleading has been said in treat
ing these .three political events as
a group that there is no safely ac
curate way of covering them except
one ay one. -Old
Republicanism Gone.
Beveridge, when he comes to the
senate, assuming that he wins the
election in November, will come
close to being representative of the
bulk of the republican party as it
is likely to be in the future. It
win not be the old etand-pat repub
licanism or 10 or 20 years ago. It
win De as far from the remihli
canism of Cannon and Lenroot as
the times have moved during that
period. At the same time, it most
decidedly will not be the rennhli
canism of radicals like T, Vniiatta
xne repuDiicanism of which Beve
idge than he will be like Wads-
not be the republicanism of Ford
ney, which looks upon an extreme
nign tariff as a simDle talisman
capame or accomplishing all pos
sible good. Beveridsre's
ism will be one that will take ac
count or the changes in the coun
try's business structure and in its
relation to the rest of the world
since the time when McKinley ad
vocated protection -for a country
which was then in its infancy as
a manufacturing nation.
There was a time when the re
publican party called itself "the
business mans party." It may be
that the republican party as it
exists today in the . lower house
and the senate would like to con
tinue to call itself by that name.
nut the other party to the compari
son, the business man, is not will
ing, as things stand today, to ad
mit the relationship." He does not
look to the republican party as his
protector and savior in the sense
that he did in the days of McKinley
ana Mark wanna. The state of
mind of business about the repub
lican party is much more nearly
an emotion of dismay and resent
ment.
Beveridge Stock Rising.
If the republican party should
again become the rjartv of thn hnal
ness man Beveridge" will come as
nearly as . any other man now in
public life to being, .the spokesman
of its policies. Beveridge, during
the 12 years he has , been out ' of
the senate, has had, through his
writing of the four-volume "Life
of John Marshall," a bath in con
stitutional history which has, to
a degree, made a change: from the
Beveridge of 15 or 20 years ago.
The speeches which Beveridge made
during his campaign last spring
would, if collected, make a better
textbook of orthodox republicanism
adapted to present-day 1 conditions
than any other in existence. Beve
ridge, when he comes to the senate.
will be a good republican, in regu
lar standing.' The rest of the re
publicans will accept him as such
Not only will they accept him as
a fellow republican; it may readily
turn out that they will accept him
as a leader.
Between the success of Beveridge
in Indiana and the success of Brook
hart in Iowa there is no common
point whatever. Brookhart is
radical. He belongs to the school
of La Follette. He made his cam
paign by two appeals: one to the
radical element among: the farmers
and the other to the radical ele
ment among the workers In Iowa
cities. He was successful in an ef
fort which is the dream of all rad
icals but which can be achieved only
by accident. The economic inter
ests of the farmers and of the city
workers are fundamentally lrrecon
cilable. They can never be perma
nently united in a common party
or behind a common leadership.!
The hopes which Brookhart aroused
among the farmers and . the hopes
which he aroused among the la
borers In the cities cannot pos
sibly be fulfilled.
Vote One of Protest.
As one of the Iowa papers re
marked the day after Brookhart
won: . .
"It was the vote of protest from
the farms against low prices of
farm products and high prices of
farm labor. From the cities it -was
a protest against high living costs
and low wages conflicting inter
ests, but united in the hope that
changes m the governments poli
cies might bring about great im
provement in eonditions.
"Brookhart has spread the gospel
that prosperity js a matter of legis
lation. - It, was a straw on a stormy
sea, and the people grasped for it.
Would that .it were real. Brook
hart, if elected, will have to be a
political gymnast of the first water
in order to keep faith with the con
flicting groups that have supported
him, but all power to him."
That sentiment of the Fort Dodge
Messenger is about the sentiment of
the national' republican leaders.
When,-. Brookhart comes ; jto.. Wash-.
m
-f :
lngton the republicans will tolerate!
him, but they won't accept him as
they will Beveridge.. The repub
lican leaders have sized up Brook
hart's success in the same way as
the Iowa paper already quoted.
They are confident that his success
rests on a purely fortuitous combi
nation of elements normally irrec
oncilable. When Brookhart tries to
satisfy the farmers he will disap
point the laborers, and vice versa.
Brookhart's term in the senate, as
suming he is successful in the No
vember .election, will be for - two
years only. (He was chosen to fill
out the unexpired term of ex-Sen-1
ator rLenyon.j xne repuoiican leau-
ers reckon that two years will be
long enough for Brookhart to dis
appoint one or the other of his two
groups of followers. They regard
him as a likeable person, with many
good jiative qualities. But they de
scribe him as having, economically
speaking, the mind of a child.
Opponent Sounder Man.
If it were a ;full six-year term
that is involved in this senatorial
election the. conservative interests
of Iowa mfght readily make up
their minds to turn Brookhart down
and elect his democratic opponent.
Clyde L. Herring, who is a more
sure-footea and sounder man. The
vote which gave Brookhart his sen
atorship was only about one-sixth
of the total vote of the state. On
showdown there are more Iowa
voters who disapprove Brookhart'B
doctrines than follow them. If the
less radical voters of the state were
well organized and if the repub
licans" among them could bring
themselves to vote the democratic
ticket. Herring, rather than Brook
hart, might be the next senator from
Iowa. But since it is only a two-
year term, and in the interest of
preserving the sanctity of the re
publican party traditions, it seems
to be the disposition of the repub
licans to let Brookhart hare his
show.
The downfall of McCumber in
North Dakota is commonly described
as a loss and a rebuke to the con
servative "republicans and as a vic
tory for those extremely radical ele
ments which compose the nonparti
san league in North Dakota. But
the truth 'is that a correct diagnosis
of McCumber's case would be close
to the opposite of this. McCumber
was defeated in North Dakota not
because he was too conservative,
but rather because his conservatism
was not sufficiently thorough
going to appeal to the conservative
republicans in his state. In the
first place, McCumber's defeat did
not turn on national issues at all.
Neither the tariff bill, of which he
is the proponent, nor his soldiers'
bonus bill had much to do with it.
McCumber's defeat was based al
most wholly on local North Dakota
conditions.
Fight Domestic One.
The .big fight in North Dakota
was a purely domestic one between
the radicals of the nonpartisan
league and the conservatives. That
conflict has dominated North Da
kota politics for more than 10 years.
And the thing that defeated Mc
Cumber was his failure to take a
whole-hearted part in the effort of
the conservatives of the state to de
feat the nonpartisan league. Spe
cifically, about a year ago there was
a local election in North Dakota
which aimed to oust the nonparti
san league governor. In this effort
McCumber was expected to help. He
failed to do so, and that was his
undoing. The conservatives in the
state resented McCumber's effort to
steer a middle course in the domes
tic policies of his state. The con
flict there has been much too tense
for anyone to do this successfully.
In reality the recent North Dakota
election as a whole was a triumph
of the opponents of the nonpartisan
league. That McSumber did not
share in this victory was wholly
due to his failure to align himself
whole-heartedly with its enemies.
The achievement of a few spec
tacular victories by new men over
the old republican leaders has led
to greater emphasis than the facts
warrant. These victories are great
ly outnumbered by the cases in
which sitting republican senators
and members of congress were suc
cessful in their candidacies for re
nomination. In the 11 states that
have held primaries 95 republican
members of congress have sought
renomination. Eighty-nine of them
have been successful.
Recent Results Cited.
In Indiana there are 13 represen
tatives in congress, all of them re
publicans., Of these 12 sought re-
nomination and all 12 were success
ful. In Iowa there are 11 representa
tives, all republicans. Ten of them
sought renomination and all ten
were successful.
In Illinois there are 27 represen
tatives, of whom 23 are republicans.
Of these 23 republicans 21 sought
renomination and only two failed.
Maine has three representatives,
all republicans. All three sought
renomination and all three were
successful.
Minnesota has ten, all republic
ans. All ten of them sought renom
lnation'and all were successful.
Oregon has three, all of whom are
republicans. All three sought re
nomination and all three were suc
cessful. Pennsylvania has 35 republican
representatives in congress and one
democrat Of the 35 republicans 29
sought renomination and all but
four were successful.
In the light of facts like these it
is pretty, hard to uphold the conten
tion commonly made , that there is
within the republican party wide
spread dissatisf action with their
present representatives. In this
statement the important clause, of
course, is "within the republican
party:" There is a good deal of dis
satisfaction in the country against
congress and the senate, but it Is
obvious that . this, dissatisfaction
does not exist to any great degree
among that portion of the voters
who ake part in republican pri
maries. '
November Offers Chance.
On the other . hand, it is easily
possible to overestimate the signifi
cance of these figures. The repub
lican voters who go to the polls on
primary day are apt to be the thick
and-thln ones, who are led by the
party workers and officeholders and
give ready allegiance to things as
they are. The discontented ones, in
the lack of leadership, stay at home
and take their dissatisfaction out in
talk. It is the lack of leadership on
a nation-wide scale that makes the
dissatisfaction impotent ,
If the democrats, when the No
vember election comes, should pro
vide the country with attractive
leadership and should succeed in
framing tlie issues in an engaging
way, the dissatisfaction in the coun
try might make itself effective. It
is the general election in Novem
ber which provides opportunities to
supplant republicans with democrats.
