RED CROSS GIRLS
BUSY AT WORK
Help to Care For the 150,000
Refugees At That
Place
Tomsk, Siberia, May 30.-—The re
fugees at Tomsk, the great university
center of Siberia, who are mostly
from European Russia, are estimat
ed to number 150,000.
Into this district of hardship and
suffering the American Red Cross
has come energetically and success
fully. When four American girls
reached Tomsk, and organized Red
Cross work here, typhus fever was
spreading rapidly and all of the
places where the refugees massed
were joints of infection and dissemi
r.vition.' It was useless to distribute
clothing or attempt feeding unless
means were tirst devised to stop the
spread of the deadly epidemic.
The Red Gross, now has taken
over eighteen barracks, into which
the refugees have herded, and each
of these barracks will be cleaned and
disinfected in turn, their inhabitants
mean-while being housed at a clear
ing-station. This station is provid
ed with baths and disinfecting ap
paratus for clothes and has dispen
sary and simple hospital facilities.
Under the direction of the Red
Cross unit, there has been establish
ed a sewing room where refugee wo
men are given employment. The
city gave rent free, a large well
lighted and well-warmed room and a
number of sewing machines —Ameri-
can made. The Red Cross has ac
cepted the offer of the Tomsk Uni
versity medical school to turn over
its clinical hospital. American doc
tors will come in later.
All the Red Cross work focuses on
providing immediate relief to meet
the emergency until the refugees can
become self-supporting. Employ
ment is difficult to obtain. However,
plans are being developed to provide
employment for the women and get
the children to school. It is expect
ed that this spring, a large propor
tion of the idle men can Ilnd work
cither on the farms or on the Trans-
Siberian railroad. Tomsk has a
number of factories, hut owing to the
breakdown in railway transporation,
many are closed because they can
not get materials with which to
operate-
Japs Get Indirect
Control of China's
Great Iron Fields
Shanghai, May 30.—For months
Japanese interests have been work
ing in their way to gain control over
the second of China's groat ore de
posits in the Yangtsze Valley, situat
ed near Nanking at Kenghuangshan.
An agreement is reported to have
been reached which at last turns
over to Japan, the iron fields in spite
of the bitter opposition of the Chin
ese people.
It is understood that the Minister
of War and the Okura interests sign
ed an arrangement in- Peking, in the
usual regular manner now charac
teristic of Sino-japanese transac
tions. Not only does it give Japan
one of the best situated ore regions
in China for exploitation-; the initial
article of the agreement, as it has
leaked out, provides for the taking
over by the government of all small
mines being operated here by Chin
ese subjects, and the cancellation of
any such contracts as have been
made with foreigners by these Chitr
cse.
This marks the end of a long
struggle which the Okura interests
have waged to oust Chinese and for
eign interests from the development
of these mines lying along the right
bank of the Yangtsze, deep water
being available for all-year ship
ment to Japan-.
The agreement consists of seven
articles, providing for a capitaliza
tion of Yen 100,000,000 under Japan
ese control, the sale of one-half the
output to Japan, and all works and
subsidiary enterprises paving the
way for extensive Japanese penetra
tion of Kiangsu and Anhwel.
London Newspapers
Fear New Revolt
In Ireland Soon
'iiondon. May 30.—An impending
pew rebellion in Ireland, with hints
of some imminent drastic action by
Ihe government, has been the sub
ject of prominent paragraphs and
articles in certain of the Don-don
newspapers during the last few days.
The Daily Mail, which printed a
conspicuous article on Wednesday,
predicting that the rebellion would
he more serious than the last, owing
to the encouragement given- to the
Sinn Fein's Republican movement by
Mcsscrs. Walsh. Dunne and Ryan,
the American delegates, carries to
day a report that Walter Hume Dong
is to replace James lan MacPher
son, as chief secretary.
Over Six Millions
For Centenary Fund
Baltimore, May 30.—The Metho
dist Episcopal Centenary fund took
a big jump, with the tabulation of
late returns last night, and the total
now stands $6,053,615. Nearly 200
churches are yet to be heard from
throughout the Washington Area.
The big fund is steadily increasing,
as delayed reports drift ir? from iso
lated sections which got a late start
in their drive.
Out of a total of 844 charges, with
twice as many pastorates, the last
minute showed that 439 had gone
"over the top" with their allotments.
Following are some figures: Cen
tral Pennsylvania conference $2,-
250,000; Alto—.a, $608,000; Harris
burg, $470,000; Sunbury, $437,000;
Williamsport, $532,000.
Plan For Control
of Big Grain Crop
Washington, May 30.—Plans for
the inauguaration of a permit sys
tem to control the movement of this
year's mammoth grain crop, an
nounced by the railroad administra
tion, contemplate the appointment
of grain control committees at each
primary market, comprised of a rep
resentative of both the operating and
traffic departments of the railroad
administration, and a third party
representing the transportation divi
sion of the Un-ited States grain cor
poration.
Shippers will apply, through the
railroad agent at the point of origin,
to the grain control committee at
the market to which they wish to
send their product. If conditions
permit; permission for the shipment
will he given promptly. Otherwise
ihe shipment will he delayed until
storegV facilities are such that the
grain car? be moved without causing I
freight congestion.

Employment Service until next July
was eliminated from the general de
ticiency bill as passed by the House
through a parliamentary move by
Representative Blanton, Democrat,
of Texas. Unless some other finan
cial provision- is made immediately
for the employment service, sup
portors of the appropriation said,
the agency will be forced to curtail
its operation even more strictly than
it did in Murch.
The appropriation for the Em
ployment Service, which was includ
ed with other appropriations total
ling $21,350,000 for numerous gov
ernment departmen-ts, was termed
unauthorized by law by Representa
tive Blanton and his point of order
to that effect was sustained-
Japan Holds Trade
Unions Cannot Exist
Tokyo, May 30.—The movement
to strike out the clause in the Peace
Police Daw prohibiting labor from
acting in- concert or urgtng strikes
has the opposition of the Japanese
I Government, which fears any such
action would result in Bolshevism
being introduced into the country.
Prior to the closing of the last
Diet, a Kokuniinto member of the
House Committee on Criminal Pro
ceedings asked the Director of the
Police Bureau about allowing the
organization of unions. This govern
ment official expressed the opposi
tion of the Japanese administration
to any legalizing of trades unions.
He stuted that the government look
ad upon conflicts between the capital
and liibor as clashes of sentiment
which must be settled by arbitration
and co-operation.
The governmer.-t, he went on,
would not rely entirely, upon the
policy of kindness and benevolence.
