Though it is now possible, Mr. Hoover found, to buy almost any kind of food in Belgium, the prices pre clude the purchase except by the wealthy. Meat, according to the re port, is $2 a pound, eggs $1 each and butter $2.50 a pound. These prices are in contrast with an average in come for more than one-half the pop ulation of less than $4 a week per family. "An examination of the population," Hoover said, "proves that the ship ments of food by the commission for relief in Belgium during the pas four years have brought this people through their ordeal without irrepar able damage to national health. There exists among certain classes under nutrition, but continued sup plies of food will rapidly rectify this. "The most cheering factor in the situation is the condition of the 2,000, 000 Belgian children who have been the object of utmost solicitude of the whole world during the four years of occupation. Because of the supple mentary meals furnished by the relief commission and the many children's institutions, these children have come through this period in a state of health perhaps even better than could be expected because of America's ready response to the appeal of the re lief commission to save the future generations of Belgium, we may be duly proud of this result." a systemic strengthened ires i . i t i irom aiCOnOl, nOlinsneS ana Pasquotank W.
