NKW YORK, .Ian. 22. The Klvlns
of an extra daily meal to 2r0.OUU
HelKian school children was thv
greatest accomplishiuent of the
American commission for relic? in
Mclium, iu t)it opinion of its enuir
mau, Herbert i Hoover, who has
just arrived here from Liverpool. Mr.
Hoover today heKan with his col
leagues to devise relief plans for
another year.
The extra meal consols of onlv
meat hash and bread, the commis
sioner said, hut it has helped greatly
to Increase the attendance at school.
Many children previous'ly had to re-1
main at home because their parents
feared they would go hungry if al
lowed to attend school.
Mr. Hoover said there were 5,r00,
000 destitute persons In Holglum and
2,000,000 In France and It will take
approximately $ ISO, 000,000 to fcarry
on the work of the commission
another year.
"The situation Is far worse than
It has been at any time since the war
started,' ho declared. "It Is a result
of n steady degeneration among the
people."
Only a negligible amount of busi
ness Is transacted In Belgium, Mr.
Hoover said. All social and intellec
tual life is at a standstill, the fa
mous universities are cloned and the
professors either have, scattered or
sacrificed their lives for their coun
try. FOR LEGISLATION

AUTO DEALERS
SALKM, Jan. 22. With the Inten
tion of amending the chattel mort
gage law respecting automobiles,
Itenjaniin C. Sheldon, reijresentative
from Jackson county, has introduced
a bill in the .legislature, known as
House Hill :!, which is deigned to
prevent fraud, jet which would work
no hardship except on the person at
tempting to commit ihe fraud.
As the, law now stands, if an auto
mobile Is mortgaged and then taken
from the county where (he mortgage
was given and remains in another
county for :J0 days, it can be sold and
the holder of the mortgage will have
no recourse, but must lose his lien
on tlie automobile This provision of
the law invite.s fraud, and such fraud
has been worked in a number of
cases In this state.
The proposed amendment pro
vides that a chattel mortgage on an
automobile may be recorded In the
secretary of state's office, and there
by become effective and enforcible in
any county In the state.
"With such a largo number of
automobiles being sold on part pay
ment, and with a chattel mortgage
taken for the unpaid balance, it be
comes impossible for the dealer to
watch all such machines and make
sure that they are not spirited away
into another county for the o0-dny
period," says Mr. Sheldon.
