One of the most terrible tragedies In j the history of the human race is being * enacted within the broad belt of terrl- * tory lying between the Baltic and the ? Black and Adriatic Seas. This area includes the new Baltic States?Poland; Czecho-Slovakia, the ' Ukraine, Austria, Hungary, Roumanla, < Montenegro, Albania and Serbia. t The reports which come to us make It clear that In these war-ravaged 1 lands civilisation has broken down, i Disease, bereavement and suffering j are present in practically every house- i hold, while food and dothlng are In- i suffcleat to make life tolerable. i Men, women and children are dying 1 by thousands, and over vast once-dvi- 1 llsod areas there are to be found net- 1 ther medicinal appliances nor medical 1 skill sufldaat to cope with the devastating plagues. i Wholesale starvation is threatened i In Poland this summer unless she can < procure food supplies In Urge quantities.

This is already one of the worst typhus epidemics in the world's history. In Gallcla whole towns are crippled and business suspended. In some districts there is but one doctor to each 150,000 people. In the Ukraine, we were told, typhus J and influenza have affected most of the population. report from Vienna, dated February 12. said: "There are rations for | three weeks. Death stalks through the streets of Vienna and takes unhindered toll. Budapest, according to our Information, is one vast ctyr of misery and suffering. The number of deaths is double that of births. Of the 160.000 ! children in the schools, 100,000 are de- i pendent on public charity. There are j tbu.uuu workers iaie.f ; Typhus and smallpox have Invaded the four countries composing Czecho- j Slovakia, and there is lack of medi- ! cines, soap and physicians. In Serbia typhus has broken out ! again and there are but 200 physicians to minister to the needs of that entire country. In Montenegro, where food is running short, there are but Ave physicians for a population of 4.r>0,000. America Overflowing With Riches. Returning to the United States a ffew weeks ago with all these horrors ringing in my ears, I found myself once more In a land whose granaries were overflowing, where health and plenty abounded and where life and activity and eager enterprise were In the full flood. I asked myself: "What if this plague | and famine were here in the great ter-1 rltory between the Atlantic seaboard 1 and the Mississippi valley, which 1 roughly parallels the extent of these J.* ravaged countries and that 6T>,000.000 f of our own people condemned to idle-; ? ness by lack of raw material and j ? whose fields had been devastated by c Invasion and rapfne were racked by a starvation and pestilence and if we 1 had lifted up our voices and invoked the attention of our brothers in hap-; 11 pier Europe to our own deep miseries n and our cries had fallen on deaf ears. f would we not In our despair exclaim a against their heartlessness!" 1 jj Only Thrae Waya to Help Europe, i . There are only three ways by whlc* j |>ese stricken lands can secure sup plies from the outside world. One i? c by payment, one by credit, and the; third Is by exchange of commodities, i ' If these peoples tried to buj materials j " and supplies In America at the present market value of their currencies Aus- ^ trla would have to pay forty times the " original cost, Germany thirteen times, ^ Greece Just double, Czecho-Slovakla fourteen times and Poland fifty times. * These figures are official and are a true index of the economic plight of ^ these countries. It Is clear, therefore, that they can- ^ not give us gold for the things they must have, nor have, they either products or securities to offer in return for credit. If only they could obtain raw material which these idle millions of theirs could convert Into manufactured products they would have-something to tender the world in return for its raw material, food and medicine. But if ^ they have neither money nor credit how are they to take this first great step towards redemption s One-half the world may not eat w while the other half starves. How e long do you bellere the plague of ty- T phus thut Is taking a hideous death * toll In Esthonia and Po^od and the e Ukraine and eating along the fringes ? of Germany and Czecho-SIovakia will ' confine Itself to these remote lands? Only last Saturday od? health com 0 o: nissioner of New York, Dr. Copeland, tailed for the other side just to m?aslre the danger and take precaution igainst such an Invasion. This is one menace at our threshold, ["he other, more threatening, more terible, is the menace of the world's 111 rill. We can afford to die, but to be lespised forever as a greedy and pbarsalcal nation is a fate that we must tot Incur. The French government has many erious problems to solve, but the ^rench peasant is working and the r'renqh artisan, while still sadly Id t teed of raw materials, has not lost bis tabit of Industry and thrift The most 'ncouraging fact about France today b that her people are alive to the seiousness of France's prqblem, and hey are going forward bravely to oive inai proDiem. Italy, despite her great shortage of aw material, Is looking forward and lot backward. Italy can be relied ipon to do her part! England is meeting the problems of econstructlon Just as those who knew ler past should have expected her to neet them. Plan to Aid Central Europe. It Is not for me perhaps to give In letall a formula for solution of the vorld's Ills, but as I have been asked nanv times, "What would you dot" I im glad to give my own answer. Accordingly, I would ask: 1. That Congress immediately 'pass i bill appropriating a sum net to exwed $500,000,000 for the use of Cenral and Eastern Europe. 2. That Congress call upon the Preedent to appoint a nonpolltlcal conanlsalon of three Americans, distinguished for their character and execitive ability and commanding the reipect of the American people. Such l commission should include mep of he type of General Pershing, Mr. Hoover or ex-Secretary Lane. I jrouM nvest that commission with complete ?ower. 8. I would have the commission Jaitrueted to proceed at once, accompanied by proper personnel, to survey wndltlong in Central and Eastern Bu ope and then act for the restoration f those countries under such condli?n<t niutn inph tormi a? tit* nisslon Itself may decide to be practicable and effective. Among the conlltlons should be provided that there ihould be no local Interference with he free and untrammeled exercise by he commission of-its own prerogative ?f allocating materials. Governmental x>lltics should be eliminated; unrealonable and prejudicial barriers beween the various countries should be emoved, and such substantial guaranees as may be available should be exicted in-order that the conditions im>osed should be fulfilled. 4. As to financial terms, I should nake them liberal. I would charge no nterest for the first tjree years; for he next three years, 0 per cent, with irovision that such interest might be' 'umied if the economic conditions of he coimtry were not approaching nornal, or if its exchange conditions were ;o adverse as to make payment unlulv burdensome. I should make the naturity of the obligation 15 years 'rom its date, and I should have no loubt as to its final payment. 5. Immediately the plan was ndoptfd I would liave our government inrite other governments in a position o assist, to participate in the underaking. 6. To set forth completely my opinon. I should add that in the final ini'/vnn * tVin A m Ant/ion n/i. tr.lo utuuiis lilt; aujcin.uu |>rv^i^ hrough their government, should say o the commission": "We want you to go and do this Job n such a manner as, after study, yon hink it should be done. This Is no irdlnary undertaking. The American teopip trust you to see that It is done Ight." I would also say to the commission: "Use so much of this money as Is leeded." Personally, I am confident hat with the assistance and co-operalon which would come from other (arts of the world the sum of $500,00,000 from the United States wool! >e more than enough to start these ountries on their way to self support ,nd the restoration of normal condlions. The whole plan, of course, Involves oany practical considerations, the aost serious of which is that of obalning the money, whether by issnlog dditional Liberty bonds, an increase a the floating ifebt or by taxation, lut I think we could properly say to he treasury department: "We know how serious your finanlal problems are; we know the dlfBulties which are Immediately coaronting you; we know the Importance f deflation, and we know that the govrnment must economize and that laIvlduals must economize, but we also now that the American government dvanced $10,000,000,000 to Its allies 3 attain victory and peace. Certalnr it is worth making the additional dvance In order to realize the peace Dr which we have already straggled, or nothing Is more certain than that nin normal conumons are resiorea id lurope there can be no peace." Above all things, I would gay that hatever action Is taken should be iken Immediately. The crisis Is so cute that the situation does net adlit of delay, except with the possibllly of consequences one hardly dares ontemplate. The situation that I have spread out ere Is far beyond the scope of Indlidual charity. Only by the action of overnments, our own and the others hose resources enable them to co-oprate, can aid be given in sufficient olume. I am also confident that our ction would be> followed by the govrnments of Great Britain, of Holland, t the Scandinavian countries, of pain and Japan, and that France and lelgtam ^nd Italy, notwithstanding all f their losses, would help to the best f their ability. -
