Yet It has many features and1l activiti's to cola Iend it to tle lot erest of tile people of tihe U' ted States.

Ihere the bi gg'est oil company of the United States and America's grea test relief organization, the American Red Cross, have distrib uting centers. Indeed, Kavalla has come to have sone of tho aspeCts of a real Amerl can city. There are so miny Anierl cans here that one feels hhnnself only at few hundred miles from home, in stead of in the heart of a remote re glon whose beginnings antedate the birth of Christ. Bulgaria Wants Harbor. For years Bulgaria has looked upon Kavalla with a covetous eye. Al though defeated and subdued, she looked hopefully to the peace con gress at Paris to give her Kavalla as a port. Yet Kavalla is not a harbor. It is merely a roadstead affording good anchorage for conastwise steamers. Millions of dollars and endless de velopient would be required to con vert the city into a first-class port. But Bulgaria, which now has only the shallow port of Dedeagatch at the mouth of the Gulf of Enos. was and Is anxious to get an outlet through Macedonia and the sea for her large output of tobacco, wheat, live stock, silk and attar of roses, tind would he quite ready to spend any sum in de veloping an(d deepening the harbor. Kavalla is situated on a rocky pe ninsula and Is dominated by the ruins of an old Venethin fort. It is protect ed fron the south hy the Greek Island of Tlhasos. Nick frmn thlie seacoast is a mountainous distrit known in Mace don a as the lPangaion. Coursing through the valley, on Pingaion's easteri slope.

The besta ii't In tle world is grown here, anr1d so vaIu able are tie fields for tobaeco eulture that very littl else Is 'lilt ivat ed. During the war the Rulifarians adopted in Kavallia the same rutiliess practices they followed inl all occu pied territory. They pillaged and de stroyed. Thiey made every effort to make the hmnd unilnhaitable. Trhey cut downi the trees and1( carried off fur niture and everything made of wood. They sacked the homies and drovo the Greek inhabitants out. As a result of all this, when the Greek comimission of the American Red Cross estabil~lied relIef posts here, a few days after the armistiee, their representatives found lIving conditions alnmost unsupportable. First Red Cross Base. Kavalla was the first city In Mace (donia to become a base for Red Cross operations. The natives speak with unhounded gratitude of the heip given them by the Americans. They say the food furnished by the American Redl Cross was the flrst substantial nourishment they lied in four years. No section of the Balkans ever presented a more depressing picture of misery and squalor. When the Americans came in they found the inhabhitants dying by the (dozen from famine, exposure andl typhus. They immediately established soup kitchens and dispensaries andi~ gave out tens of thousands (if Amneiian miado garimenits. TPhey sent Ina doc tors, nurses and meisdh'oIl sli's.
