BELGIAN SAILOR PICTURES
WOE OF HIS NATIVE LAND
Tells of Destruction of Town
and
Flight of Its Residents.
TJroken In spirit, his position nnd home
gone, his relatives scattered to the four
corners of the earth, Louis Scbreches, a
Belgian, nrrlved here today as third offi
cer of the Rritlsh steamship Manchester
Mailner, from Manchester.
Sehreches. with tenrs In his eyes, told
of the tragedy enacted In Belgium. In
tho simple but touching language of a
sailor he depicted the ruin of his native
town of Termonde
"Kverythlng Is goine IjJ Termonde. Not
a house Is loft standing. My wife, mother,
mother-in-law, three married sisters nnd
two brothers barely escaped with their
lives when the Germans took the city nnd
set It on fire The five houses In which
we lived are now a mass of charred ruins.
All we had In this world la gone. The
womenfolk aro In England living on the
charity of the English people. When I
up my position as master of a Baltic
steimshfp and hastened to assist my folks
Thank Hod, I got to them In time to pre
vent their being sepnratcd I had great
difficulty In getting them to England But
I did so and obtained this position on tho
Manchester Mariner, where Captain Cabot
is like a father to me. I hope In time to
bo able to earn enough to support all the
helpless members of my family. And
when the war Is over well, I don't know
If .1 evei want to return to Belgium or
not.
"I have heard of tho wonderful work
your wonderful people nre doing for the
people of my country and we appreciate
It as much as we need it. Your generosity
no doubt will mean the saving of thou
sands of lives, and In the name pf those
starving peoplo I want to thank the kind
hearted American people."
Ills frame shaken with sobs, Scbreches
was unable to continue and he retired to
his quarters.

HIS PA THOUGHT IT
CO-OPERATIVE PLAN
, TO LOWER COST OF
LIVING TRIED HERE
Grocery Store at 505 Reed
Street Planned by Share
holders as Result of Study
in Many Lands.
Tlie people of one section of the city
have developed a little plnn of their own
to reduce the cost of food, Some of them
decided to open n co-operative rjrocery
gtore, to be tho first of a lonir chain of
such stores.
The co-operative Rrocery will be opened
tonight at 603 Heed street. There, In n
small carefully whitewashed room It will
be conducted. The etore Is financed by a
system of co-operntlvc shnro biilnrf. Tho
members will receive Roodi at cost or
llttlo above cost, to cover expenses, and
any profits that may still arlo will bo
either distributed ntnonir the members or
put back Into the business, nccortllnp to
the wish nnd dcslro of tho members.
The store Is the result of careful study
and InvcstlKntlon of tliu co-opcrathc
movement tho world over.
On one of the shelves In the new
store Is to be found a number of books,
not fofTsalc, but for refcrenco In explain
ing the plan to customers. Theso books,
written In various languages, havo been
brought from many countries and they
describe the principles nnd methods of
the co-operative movement In these coun
tries. Speaking of the possibilities and prom
ises of the co-operative store, A. J. Mar
golin, one of tho shareholders, who has
a place of business at Sth and Walnut
streets, said that the only wny for tho
people to fight the "food trust" or any
trust engaged In the production of the
necessities of life was for the people to
organize
"The people do not realize," said Mr.
Margolin, "the tremendous value of tho
purchasing power which thoy possess. If
they would only organize this purchas
ing power they could do a' great deal In
relieving distress and reducing tho high
cost ot living. The co-operative move
ment In this country Is In Its Infancy, if
II can be said to exist here at all, but
when one takes the trouble to a,tudy tho
work of the co-operative movement
abroad he will llnd some materlnl for
thought
"The International Co-operativo Alli
ance, which met recently In Glasgow,
represents one or the grcntcst world fed
erations. It Is composed of 24 national
I'nlts and Includes about 130,000 separate
co-operative societies, having about 10,
000,000 family members, representing threo
oi four times Hint number of persons
"The most Important feature of this
world-wldo co-operative movement Is the
control of Industry, the elimination of the
nilililltmin and the organization of pro
duction nnd distribution of wealth by
collectivities of citizens This organiza
tion nnd ndmlnlstrnton of economic life
by citizen consumers has been growing
by leaps nnd bounds In many countries.
The co-opctntlve movement the world
ovi-r has done n business of ?:.O0O 000,000
during the last jenr, tnot only In the
field of consumption, but In the field of
production
"It may seem strange, but there Is
every reason to suppose that from the
humble beginning which we have hero
there mav come a great movement of or
ganising tho purchasing power of the con
sumers throughout tills country. The co
operative movements of the European
countries and of Australia have, for tho
most part, had no more pretentious be
ginning. Today they are doing business
to the extent of hundreds of millions of
dollars."
Tonight n meeting of t,he shareholders
of the co-opcratlvo store will be held at
503 Heed street AVajs and means will
be discussed to Insure the success of tho
enterprise.

Commissioners' Eeport Shows ilarked
Increase During1 November.
Heavy cxportatlons of Brain, flour and
oil marked the business of tho pott of
Phlladclnhta durlnir tho month of No
vember, according; to the report of the ;
Commissioners ot Navigation issued to-, i

The report points out that 3.0766fft
bushels of craln were sent out in tho 30

with 2,188,864 bushels In tho samo pcrioa ,
Inst year. Flour export totaled 34,060.'
920 pounds against 16,803,700 pounds ita
November 1313. .
Thero was a decrease In imports. The)!
customs receipts amounted to $802,652.35
as compared with $060,966.12 last Novem
ber. The falling off in the receipts Jet
caused principally by tho falling off In
tho amount of Roods arriving Irons
abroad nnd lower tariff duties, V
Sugar shipments Into this port have
censed. None arrived last month nma
nene tho previous month. Imports ot
thin commodity had been one of tin?
premier Imports of tho port's business!
The cutting of the foreign marKetu hub
to the war has left tho refiners with
large supply of raw product on hand and
they arc not purchasing from the plant

November numbered 463 with a tonnac
of 787.S64 as compared with 13 vessels
