After one haa inspected the kitchens in the recently freed prov v lncea of Latvia one marvels at the Vision of Herbert C. Hoover and his ; extraordinary administrative ability rivhlch is saving 4.000.000 emaciated Children in this country. Many per sons deplore the apparent decline of America's influence in the political and military affairs of Europe and some lament that America is not using her great commercial oppor tunities in the devastated regions i of Central and Eastern Europe, but this makes America's preponderance in humanitarian work stand out more effective and penetrating than any diplomatic influence can be. f : Several times I have witnessed the ;; popularity of the American repreeenta tives and the gratitude of the people for the American relief work, but never -".have I seen a more forcible, genuine and thrilling demonstration of it than today when the whole population of these ruined and starving little towns gathered at the relief kitchens person !.' ally to thank Mr. Orblnson and to ez I press their .love and admiration for the xi American people. Mr. Orbinson, who was on his way to Dvlnsk to feed 10,000 ? starving children, was hailed, together . with America, In prose and verse in the ,'(' ' : Lettish, Hebrew, Russian and German 'j t Vr languages, but no language- was more I1 " I eloquent or persuasive than the beaming m yes of the children. Their affection 'it ;:J J for- their "American uncle" was. pa thetic. ARE EDUCATIONAL CENTERS ' Mr. Orblnson in giving his children more than food. In fact these American Relief association kitchens are educa- tional centers where the poorest children for the first time in their lives come in touch with sympathy and kindliness. It - is a new kind of children's club where community of spirit Inspires the chll r drea ; It is apt to be an Important center ' of communal life In fact, the dominat ing Institution in every town. It Is a practical school of national equality and religious toleration. Children of all na t tlonalitles and religions eat together. All f the committees are organised on an "In r: ternatlonal basis" and it is gratifying that in their tremendous exaltation the I ii : I m in communal representatives hall America J.. not simply for the food distributed but v chiefly for the kindness and sympathy 1 shown. AMERICA 18 FA1RT IA5D I It is difficult to exaggerate the lm . f portance of the American Relief asso- elation In this corner of the world. It is saving not only the lives but the souls of the new generation which was grow ing up In a world of permanent wars and a wilderness of mutual hatred. In the imagination of these unfortunate children foreigners were inevitably con ceived as wild beasts causing all the iiubcij. iiiv iuiqiiiiviv-nuivir I cans are bringing them food, sympathy I and love. The American kitchens, in i fact, are fairy lands in the imagination 4 of the terrorised, emaciated little crea tures. The association is now feeding . I?, 000 children In Latvia and is about to -add 10,000 more in Dvlnsk. V The A. R. A. kitchens have established a new and great principle. The children must be fed; if the community is un able to feed them, it la the task of other communities to hasten to their as sistance. The work started by the American Relief association will live forever and America will be hailed as tbe savior of the new generation. Kolchak Is Safe; Eumor of Capture By Beds Is Untrue London, Jan. 22. (L N. S.)

OTHER NATIONS TO AMEND PACT, TOO Belgian, British, French and Ital ians All Want to Change League of Nations. By William E. ah SprcUl Cabl to The Journal and The Chic.to Dally New. (Copyright, 1810, by Chicago Daily Kewi Co.) Brussels, Jan. 4 (delayed) Oth er nations besides tbe United States desire amendments to the pact of the League of Nations. The unof ficial congress of league societies, which has Just finished its sessions in Brussels, has put forth a number of resolutions which urge amend ments to the covenant. The Italians demand compulsory arbitration and the British and French together want an international court of justice to be embodied In the league on equal terms with the assembly and execu tive council. The French consider indispensable the creation f an international military staff to enforce the decisions of the executive council by the use of armies, or else, they say, the council will be flout ed right and left as is now the expert ence of the Paris peace conference and as was formerly the experience of the peace tribunal at The Hague. The dele gates from all the nations unite in de manding gradual disarmament. These resolutions show popular dis content in England, France, Italy and other countries with the League of Na tions as it is now constituted. The dlf- fcxence between them and the United States is that they are willing - to sac rifice some otthelr Ideals and accept the pact as it stands and strive tor amendments afterwards, whereas the American senate will accept no compro mise at all. All of America's demands must be satisfied at once or she will not enter the league. Besides adopting these resolutions the congress of Brussels decided to consti tute itself into a permanent organiza tion. At periodic intervals hereafter a congress will meet in other capitals of Europe. A general council will be appointed to regulate the executive' af fairs. Here in Brussels a permanent bu reau will be established where anyone from any corner of the world may gather Information about questions relating to the league.

' American Embassies May Be Prohibited From Use of Wines Washington, Jan. 22. (L N. S ) Pro hibition is worrying even the diplomats. The state department', today is in a quandary as to whether a ruling on prohibition should be (issued to mem bers of the diplomatic corps of the United States. American embassies in foreign lands are technically part of the United States and thereby the embassies.'ln the strictest sense, must be dry. , "Dry" banquets and social functions In "wet" countries would place the American embassies at a distinct dis advantage, officials admit, for light wines and beverages are considered as necessities to dinners in many foreign countries. : ' I Egypt's New Woman Found Defiant of Old Laws of the Harem Cairo, Egypt, Jan. 22.
