whose traveling auditors In th? field

Near East Relief. This repor' shew?
the expenditure to date to be about
sixty million, leaving a balance on
hand of a trifle more than three
hundred and sixty thousand dollars.
The report shows that there ar> ap­
proximately seven hundred and ele­
ven Americans and Canadian relief
workers, including physicians, sur­
geons, nurses, mechanics, industrial
experts,
engineer - agriculturists,
teachers, administrators, orphanage
experts, supply transportation and
general relief workers, employed on
little more than volunteer basis,
while 87, 291 native workers have
been used by the Near East Relief
organization. According to the re­
port, 63 hospitals, with 6522 beds,
128 clinics, 11 rescue homes, 299
orphanages and 56,039 children out
side orphanages have been main­
tained by the Near East Relief.
It is reported that approximately
2,790,490 Armenians are still living
out of a pre-war population of about
4,000,000. In parts of Clicia alone
it is stated that 65 per cent of the
Armenian Christian population per­
ished from starvation during the
war, while in the whole of Syria
not less than 25 per cent perished
from the same cause. It is estimat­
ed that had it not been for the Amer­
ican aid furnished through the Near
East Relief, fully half of the present
Armenian population of tho near
east would have succumbed.
The field of operations of the
Near East Relief covers European
Turkey, (Thrace), Anatolia, Arme­
nia, Chilcia and Transcaucasia,
While relief is given impartially
to all needy without dlstln?tlcn of
race or religion, the greater part of
the work is declared to have been
carried on among the Armenians,
Greeks, Nestorlans, Syrians «nd As-
Syrians, largely Christian, of whom
561,970 were furnished food during
a large part of 1920, while 300,000
garments, comprising 1.500,000 lbs.,
of clothing and shoes were distribut­
ed to refugees.
The general secretary of the Near
East Relief is Chas. V. Vickrey, who

Secretary Haberlach statoa that

HOUSE OF CONGRESS
NEW POLICY OF ALOOFNESS IS
NOT POPULAR WITH
CONSTITUENTS
Washington, April 27.—President
Harding and all cabinet officer*
are trying their best to popularise
the administration . Congressmen
are doing the same thing. The Whlte
House is open once more to the pub­
lic and the executive departments
are thronged *lth visitors from all
over the United States. More atten­
tion is being paid to the common
people by the rank and file of gov
ernment officials than ever before
in the last twenty years . In fact
every department of the government
is cooperating along the lines of
President Harding in making liis ad­
ministration a personal and human
one, except the senate.
For some reason, probably because
they feel that the large majority
given the Republicans at tho last
election Irsures them from being dis
turbed from thelr control of th? sen­
ate for many years, some of the sen­
ate leaders have adopted a touch-me
not policy. The marble room which

to see the President of th? United
States than It Is some of the ictlring
and bashful senators.
This Is the great contrast Io »ho
period preceeding the election. Then
the senators were available to al) of
their constituents in every way pos­
sible, and IsritatkMM were
uted broadcast to voters to come to
Washington by all means to visit the
senators while they were heie. The
constituents are coming now in
droves. They feel their real Interest

A constituent now sends in bls card
to his favorite senator and, like as
not, the word will come back from
behind the screens that Seaator So-

may not be. Unless the combinent

Plans are being matured to hold
a County track and field meet here
on the 21st day of May. A meeting
of representatives of the High
Schools of the County meet at Bay
City April 16th and drew up tenta­
tive plans. The following events
were agreed upon:
Track Events,
50 yard dash, 100 yard darii. 200
yard dash, 400 yard dash, 880 yard
dash, 220 yard low hurdles, 220

Field events will be : Shot put,
Discus, Pole vault, High jump,
Broad Jump.
It is expected that representatives
of Cloverdale, Bay City, Wheeler,
Beaver and Tillamook High Schools
will enter. It Is hoped that this
may be made an annual event.
The local students wish to take
this opportunity of thanking Messrs.
John Carbol, Lee Whitcomb, Art

work in helping to put the Atheistic
