In Warsaw, which had not been de

ies of Europe before the war, the
streets were lined with people in the
pangs of starvation.
Famished and
rain-soaked, they squatted there, with
their elbows on their knees or lean
ing against the buildings, too feeble
to lift a hand for a bit of money or a
morsel of bread If one offered It, per
ishing of hunger and cold. Charity
did what It could. The rich gave all
that they had, the poor shared their

Hundreds of thousands

The above statement by Mr. Wal
cott is a terrible arraignment of the
Hun, but no more terrible than he
deserves.
What has happened In
Poland, In Belgium, In northern
France and every other country that
has been blighted by the Hun's pres
ence would happen In America should
the allies, by any chance, fail to win
this war. It would mean the enslave
ment of American men. the starving
and death of American women and chil
dren.
Either the Hun or humanity
must perish.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++ :
The following Is a statement by F.
C. Walcott, who served as an assist-
tint to Mr. Hoover during the time
America wc, doing all that was pos
sible to feed the starving millions of
Belgium and Poland and northern
France. In this work he was brought
in direct contact with German military
officials, and saw the conditions which
the Germen invasion had created
among the civilian population :
I went to Poland to learn the facta
concerning the remnant of a people
that had been decimated by war. The
country had been twice devastated.
First the Russian army swept through
it and then the Germans. Along the
roadside from Warsaw to Pinsk, the
present firing line, 230 miles, nearly
half a million people had died of hun
ger and cold. The way was strewn
with their bones picked clean by the
crows. With their usual thrift, the
Germana were collecting the larger
bones to be milled into fertilizer, but
finger and toe bones lay on the ground
with the mud-covered and rain-soaked
clothing.
Wicker baskets were scattered along
the way—the basket in which the baby
swings from the rafter In every pens
ant home. Every mile there were
scores of them, each one telling a
death. I started to count, but after a
little I had to give It up, there were
so many.
That is the desolation one saw along
the great road from Warsaw to Pinsk,
mile after mile, more than two hun
dred miles. They told me a million
people were made homeless in six
weeks of the German drive in August
and September, 1916. They told me
four hundred thousand died on the
way. The rest, scarcely half alive,
got through with the Russian army.
Many of these have been sent to Si
beria; It is these people whom the
Paderewski committee is trying to re
lieve.
In the refugee camps, 800,000 sur
vivors of the flight were gathered by
the Germans, members of broken fam
ilies. They were lodged In Jerry-built
barracks, scarcely water-proof, un-
lighted, unwarmed in the dead of win
ter. Their clothes, where the buttons
were lost, were sewed on. There were
no conveniences, they had not even
been able to wash for weeks. Filth
