ANN 1h Ce BUTTER Fearing to Return to Homes, People Must Starve or Beg--Fugitives in Desperate Plight. London, Oct. 22. -- The problem of securing food and shelter for the Belgian people both at home and in Holland, England and France is stir- ring the hearts and minds of men eéven in countries already distraught by the horror of war. Figures are necessarily vague, but a conservative estimate is that 1,600,000 Belgians out of a popu- lation of 7,000,000 have been expa- triated. Lord Gladstone's committee says that 70,000 arrived in London dur ing the past week and the Wo- men's Relief committee, which sent a ship te Holland last week, reports that in eight Holland cities the re fugees number nearly 500,000. In other words, they are more numer- ous than the native population, The Folkestone committee alone has the names of 16,000 refugees on its lists, some among them hav- ing little money and only a few having winter clothing. Folkestone already has established a mater. § Have You Tried {GYPSUM WALL PLASTER? It Saves Time. P. WALSH, are well filled. There are many gentle folk am- ong these fugitive Belgians who are notC used to labor and who accept charity reluctantly. The London committee has twen- ty-seven sub-committees in different cities in England, Scotland and Wa- les, and these organizations are placing refugees in homes as rapid- ly as possible.

Lord Gladstone said to-day: "We still want acceptable homes," warm winter clothing and shoes. Many re- fugees arrive in families, and they dislike to be separated. The prin- cipal problem is to secure work for them. The' question of the repa- | triation of these refugees is too in- volved in the outcome of the war | for the making of definite plans at the present time The first consignment of food sup- plies for the people of Brussels is to-day on the. London docks ready | for shipment to Rotterdam. Ambassador Page has consigned this food direct to Brand Whitlock, the American minister in the Bel- gian capital. The American and the Spanish . ministers at Brussels are the patrons of the plan to revictual| that city, which probably will be ex-; tended to the sending of supplies to other Belgian cities where food Is lacking. j Four million francs ($800,000) were subscribed in one day in Brus- sels, but outside help is necessary to prevent starvation agong the Belgian people. essary .to prevent a further exodus | of Belgians to Holland, France and England . | THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT BABY.
