Mr. Hoover, who is in <'.li:1i'ge of the

Neutral Committee for this relief work, says that there are over seven _million Belgiuns who must get théif daily loaf oi’ bread through this Relief (Toriimission, and ol those, there are over three million people who are destitute und must be led hy this char- ily. l As may not be generally known, bread is the national i`ood of the Bel- gians. ’i`hey are not large eaters, the iiidiistrial class, \vho are now without work. subsist on bread and potatoes.

The National Committee which was

formed through the good ofiices oi iwl r. Page, the Emhassiidor oi' the Unit- _i l States to Great Britain, has distrl luted between twenty-five and thirty iiiillioii dollars worth of i`ood to the _ Velgiziiis. \Vlien it is realized that it ,takes about seven million dollars a _`iiionth to feed the Belgiaiis, il, will ibe seen how urgent is this cry for

help.

The despicable action of the Gorman

governor iii not only refusiiig to feed ,the destitute Belgiaiis, but also for- 'birltliiig any food to be imported ,hy the llelgiaiis, places the whole iiatloii in this helpless condition, and makes thcni dcpeiideiit on the good will oi` "1 lo .
