EUROPEAN AID ROOTS FAMINE Conditions Better in Nations - Stricken by War, Says Sir Eric Drummond. % $218,000,000 PROVIDED 4 ' " ' / American Organizations Assure Self-Supporting Future for Victims. By CARL, W. ACKKHMA.V (Wnakiiigton Herold-Poblle l.edffer Service. Upeelnt Clklr Dispatch.) London, July 10.?Sir Erie Drummond. secretary general of the leaptte of nations, today made public a letter which he sent to Lieut. Gen. Sir David Hendersrjj. director ganeral of the League of He'd Cross Societies in Geneva, stating that the United Stales during 1919 and the beginning *>f 192" provided approximately J21S.000.000 worth of supplies for the relief of centra) Europe. Considering the present "detachment" of the United States from European affairs, it is interesting to know that America during the last year and a half has contributed to such a large degree toward ameliorating the pitiful conditions existing in Poland. Austria, Hungary. Serbia and Rumania. Sir Eric in reviewing the relief work, while stating only the cold facts, indicated that the United States and Great Britain hud. in supplying food, clothing and transport to these countries, helped them to a great extent during the past critical months of readjustment. Repart of Secretory General. (Surveying this work, the secretary general of the league made the following report: "The cereal, meat, milk and fat requirements of the countries affectcd ?namely, Poland, Austria, Hungary and Rumania?may now appear to be assured. In a greatef or less degree until the coming harvest owing to the establishment of the international committee for rellel credits. Large quantities of special foodstuffs, like condensed'milk, cocoa. etc.. have also been made available by the American Children's Relief. the American Red Cross, the Fave-the-Children fund, the Friends war victims' relief committee, the Vienna relief fund and the Jewish relief committee. "During 1919 and the beginning o! 1920 America irovided ?'120.000.000 worth of clothing and textile mixture for Poland. Great Britain provided J.200.000 yards of cotton twill and upward of 200,000 pairs of boots Poland also obtained 17,000,000 guilders' worth of clothing from Holland Larrte supplies cf clothinw and other necessaries of this nature have been and still are being supplied to the countries of Eastern Europe, through voluntary organizations. "The decisions of the credits conference w^ileh took place in Paris on the twenty-second of April, have now piade available, in certain participating countries, wool and othei raw materials essential to textile manufacturers. This should materially assist the affected countries to meet their existing lack of clothing. "It is also understood that, through government and other credits. a certain amount of cotton is being, and is likely to be. provided for Austria and Poland (the textile mills of the latter are now running about 30 per c?nt pre-war apaclty). "There is also, it is hoped, more than a probability of wool and other raw materials for Poland and other countries being provided out of private credits arranged by business organizations.
