Measures.
Washington, July 25.-Alarmed at
reports of a threatened "seini-faiine"
coupled with an cpidemic of pellagra
in a large section of the southern cot
ton helt, President J larding today re
(iuested both the public health service
an( the Ameriican Red Cross to make
immiiiiediate investigAtion and report
what could be done by the fedemal
governiimiienit to relieve the situnation.
The fullest cooperation of all fed
L'ral agenoles in the relief measures
was promised by the Piesident, who
leelalred that if found necessary. Con
grss woul be asked to pass special
legislation. lie urged that no time be
lost inl ascertaining tihe actltI conuli

The thieat of "famine and iplague,"
the president wrote to tle health ser
ice and tile Red Cross, seemed to
arise from the fact that depressed
markets made it itipossible for the
people oft a large section of the south
Lt sell their stocks of cotton. The re
.ilIting shortage of money, he said, ap
paiently had deprived many thousands
if the v:triety of food necessary to
ward off pellagra.
The pr'esident, in his letter .to Su r
geoi General Cummings, said:
"I have been grteatly colcernield to
note the public statement from the
pi ulic health service as to the ineneac
of pellagra and condition of at least
semi-famine in a large section of -the
cotton belt. That such a iicondition is
obviously a tetmpor-ary incident to the
economic dislocation following tIhe
war, can not lessen our concern.
Pamine and plague are words almost
forvi n to our American vocahulary
save as we have lear'ne(l their mean

of lands less favored, and towaII
