H. FORE & CO. US Market Street 1' WASHINGTON, Feb: 8. Operations of the American Red Cross incident to the relief of famine sufferers in China, toward which the society appropriated $500,000; were announced In detail by Ernest P. Bicknell, acting director of foreign operations. Explaining the policy of the Red Cross in' giving em ployment to thousands of Chinese atid payment of these employes in food supplies,' Mr. Bicknell said: "The American Red Cross has under taken to reliev famine sufferers in a certain strip of territory in the prov ince of Shantung. We have at the head of the work John Earl Baker, an American who has spent : some years in China and for a long time has been technical advisor to the Chinese gov ernment railway administration. His appointment was recommended by Mr. Charles R. Crane, the American minis ter at Peking. 'M;r. Baker traveled through the famine district assigned to the Amer ican Red Cross, and after consulting with the highest and most reliable Chi nese authrities and leading citizens, decided that the best, methpd of add ing the famine, suffers was to provide them with employment and pay them for their- work in food supplies. As there was no. food to be had in that country, money would have been use less to these people in the purchase of food. The Red Cross' therefore,' buys its supplies in Manchuria or in other distant places, ships it to the famine area and pays it out through a care-, fully directed commissary department . to-the heads of families who are em- ployed on the public work the Red i Cross has undertaken. The Chinese! government has given a right of way for. a much needed road 80 miles long connecting two important cities. The Red Cross in building this road is thus not only providing food relief, but at the, same time is helping China to con struct a valuable roadway of a perma nent character."
