3,000,000 ARE DESTITUTE
APPEAL TO AMERICA ISSUED BY
COMMISSION FOR RELIEF IN
BELGIUM.
Women and Children Must Be Clothed
This Winter-Nine Million Whole
ly or Partly Destitute.
New York.--Over :1,000,000 persons
in Belgium and Northern Prance,
mostly women and young children,
must be clothed and shod by Christ
mas. If the garments and shoes for
those destitute people are not forth
coming at once, their sufferings dur
ing the winter will become desperate.
Such is the note of an urgent ap
peal issued to the people of the
United States by the commission for
relief in Belgium. The New York
committee have received from Mr.
Herbert Hoover, chairman of the
commission, the following statement:
"It appears to me that it is neces
sary for us to go frankly to the
American people and ask them to
clothe the destitute In the occupied
areas of Belgium and northern France
(luring the coming winter'.
"There are 9,000,000 people in these
areas and of these over one-third are
now either wholly or partially desti
tute and are today receiving their
food either wholly or partially with
out payment.
"As you know we have set up
economic measures based on the
ability of a portion of the population
to pay for its food which, with the
contributions of other countries, en
ables us for the present to find the
bare minmum of food supplies for
the whole 9,000,000 people, but we
have no reserves with which to pro
vide clothing for the destitute.
"Even if these 9,000,000 people had
money they could not import clothes,
or the raw materials with which to
manufacture them, through the
blockade into an area under military
occupation.
"It is a certainty that the undue
exposur-e of underclad men, women
and children to the bitter winter will
greatly increase mortalfly. The cloth
ing for these peole can be provided
'Only if we receive gift sup~plies for
the purpose. We must depend upon
the American people."
KING PETER SEEKS DEATH.
Tells Serbians When He Is Dead They
Can Flee or Surrender.
Saloniki, via London.-After heavy
fighting with the reinforced Bulga
rians troops In southern Serbia tho
French were compelled to retire at
two points in the vicinity of Gradisce,
12 mIles north of the Greek border.
Old Serbia Is lost and new Serbia
Is In a precailous condition, in the
opinion of M. JacowvschiefY, secretary
of the Russian Legation in Greece,
who arrivedl here from Mitrovitza,
western Serbia, by way of Albania.
The secretary asserted Ithe Fer
bins at Babuna Pass could not hold
out much longer, and that the only
hope was thant the Serbiani force c'on
cent rated at Mltrovltza would p~rov'e
to be strong enough to take the offen
sive and advance through Tetovo to
wardls Monastir.
"The morale of the Serbains is

further shipments of merchandise (de
stinied for Greece.
Some Tasks For Congress.

cult If not implosible to reach under01
existing statutes is one of the tasks
Congress will be asked to undertake
at the coming session, This was

Sherman anti-trust act so there would
be no question about its application

NAVY PLANNING FOR
TWO MONSTER SHIPS
IN FIRST YEAR'S PART OF THE
FIVE-YEAR BUILDING PRO
GRAM.
TO BE LARGEST IN WORLD
36,000-Ton Craft of the California
Class.-Cannot Begin Until Next
Summer For Lack of Steel.
Washington.--Tentative plans are
being considered ,Secrotary Daniels
said, for two 36,000-ton battleships to
be included in the first year's part of
the five-year building program Con
gress will be asked to approve. There
are no warships so large afloat any
where in the world. The biggest over
designed for the American Navy are
the 32,000-ton craft of the California
class, bids for two of which were re
ceived.
Part of the increased displacement
in the newest ships will be due to
changed hull construction to provide
additional torpedo defense bulkheads.
While the ship's general charactris
tics have not been disclosed, they
probably will have increased arma
ment and speed. The navy has de
veloped a I6-inch ritie, and the new
ships may carry 10 or more of these
if developllents of the European war
indicate the wisdom of mounting
themi, The largest guns now afloat
are the 15-inch wCpons of European
navies, which the American 14-inch
rifle is said to equal for all practical
purposes.
lMaxinutu speed of American bat
tleship now built or authorized is
21 knots, although European first line
ships go considerably above that. It
is considered probable that a speed
of perhaps 25 knots will be sought.
Secretary Daniels has received no
report on the examination of private
bids received for battleships 43 and
44, all of which appeared to be above
the limit fixed by Congress. It is un
derstood, however, a careful analysis
of the exceptions to advertised speci
fications bears out the indication that
private builders will not attempt to
construct the hulls and machinery of
the ships within the $7,S00,000 limit.
Neither ship can be laid down be
fore the next sulmmer, it is said, for
lack of structural steel, the war hav
ing swept the American steel market
clean. Secretary l)nels showed con
siderable concern over this fact. He
intimated that unless some arrange
ments could be made with steel plants
to insure preference for government
orders Congress might be asked to
act. An embargo on exportation of
steel until the government's wants are
supplied has been suggested.
PLENTY OF COTTON.
Germany Has All the Cotton She
Needs For Milliary Purposes.
Berlin, by wireless to Sayville.-Ger
manty not only hais all the cotton she
nieeds for military piurposes for sever
al years, but newv fields of supiply are
now open1 to her, says the Overseas
News Agency. Prevention of cotton
shipments to Switzerland on the con
tention that the material would fid
its way to Germany and he used for
making e'xplosives will hurt the neu
tral nation, but will not injure Ger
many, it declares. in commenting on
Swiss reports that the Entente Pow
ers have stoppledl cotton shipments for
Swiss mills.
"Competent German authorities
state that the German army is satis
factorily provided with cotton for soy
oral years," tils agency says. "In
addiltion lhuge quantities can be ob
tainied from Turkey by way of the
D~anube, and even if ali shipments
were stopipedi Germnany is provided
with thle material for an indefinite
time."'

fendant in the case, char'god with

SITUATION IS IIOP[[[SS
THE MAIN SERBIAN ARMY IS
ALMOST ENTIRELY SUR
ROUNDED BY ENEMY.
Only Two Lines of Retreat For Ser
bians; One Into Albania and the
Other Across Greek Border.
Loidonl.---13Othi the military and dip
lonatic situation of the Allies in the
Balkans are disquieting, if not criti
cal, a fact which doubtless, led to the
llriitsli Prime Minister, AMr. Asquith.
David Lloyd-George and A. J. Balfour
to Paris for a conference with the
French Cabinet and General Joffre,
F'rench colmander-in-chief.
The main Serbian army, under
General Putnick, operating in the
north, is encompassed on every side
but one, and being cut off from the
south by the Bulgarian advance be
yond Tetovo, must depend upon the
rough roads through Montenegro and
Albania for any supplies from the
sea.
In the south the Serbian position
is almost as bad. The success of the
Btulgarians flanking attack on I3ab
uina Pass and their advance from
Veles have prevented the hoped-for
junction of the Serbian-French forces.
This leaves the Serbians only two
lines of retreat, one into Albania,
where they may be harassed by un
friendly tribes, and the other across
the Greek border, where they are in
(1anger of being disarmed and in
ternel. It is to prevent the latter
eventuality that the Entente Allies
are putting forth every effort.
The lritish Government has taken
further action by the issuance of an
order that no Greek vessel, except
those loaded or unloading may proceed
to their destinations, while Denys
C'ochin member of (lie French Cabi
niet, who was given an enthusiastic
reception at Athens by the municipal
authorities and the people, is expect
0(d to express very firmly the French
view of what is considIeredl Greece's
unsatisfactory reply to the Entente
Powers' reqjuest for tile safe conduct
of both Serbian and( Allied forces
shiouldl they lbe complelled to retire
into Greece.

LAKE CITY LEADS
ALL LEAF MARKETS
LARGEST TOBACCO MARKET IN
STATE SELLS 4,908,426
POUNDS
MULLINS RANKING SECOND
Darlington Is Third and Kingston
Is Fourth in Official Report for
the Season
Columbia-Lako City has again
taken the lead this year ainong the
tobacco markets of the state, with
Mullins second, Darlington third and
Kingstree fourth. Lake City led last
year with 6,283, 500 pounds, Mullins
being second with 3,708,984 pounds.
The year before, Mullins led with
4,678,686 pounds and Lake City Was
second with 4,343,321 pounds. This
season Lake City shows 4,977,246
pounds, against 4,347,697 for Mul
lins.
The above facts appear from the
ainnual seasonal report on tobacco
sales in the state, issued recently
by Commisioner Watson for the de
partmhent of agriculture. The total
crop for the year, marketed to the
close of the season, was 37,995,284
pounds of tobacco of all grades for
which the producers received $2,765,
372.10 or an average price of 7.02
cents per pound. There were 24 ac
tive markets this year.
In 1914 there were 41,101,651
pounds marketed, for 53,979,303.82
an average price of 9.68 cents per,
polund.
The number of pounds, and the
average prices for each crop since
the records have been kept under the
tobacco law have been as follows:
Year Pounds Average
sold. Price.
1909...........27, 43,694 8.35
1910...........18, 02,875 8.53
1911...........11,101,06i1 12.18
1912........... 24,337,912 10.90
1913 ........... 33,299,561 13.77
1914........... 41,101,651 9.G8
1915........... 37,995,284 7.02
"It is interesting to note," sai4
Commissioner Watson, "that the
United States Department of Agri
culture has published officially that
last year's South Carolina tobacco
crop was 3t,500,000, when the actual
sales accounted for were 41, 401,651
pounds and that this year the fed
eral final estimate of the er .s
31,900,000 pounds, when the actual
number of pounds marketed for pro
ducers at. first hand has been 37,995,

government on the corn, wheat and

no absolute checks are kept are as
far off the mark as these figures on
