SPENDERS FAR HUE LIBERAL IIIS1TE IN S. STOCKS (Hungry American farmers did 1 demand food at England, last Saturday, and along with of others in the drouth area of the South, they had their needs taken care of by the Red Cross. The following dispatch tells of the amazing situation in Arkansas where drouth, following the flood of 1927, has created new problems.) By OWEN L. SCOTT (Special Dispatch) LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Jan. 8.

Several hundred hungry American farmers did demand food from the merchants of England, down the road 20 miles from here, on Saturday afternoon of last week. The mayor, the storekeepers, the farmers and the Governor of the state, soon assure the visitor of that However, there was no violence, no rioting, no real threats of trouble. As Mayor W. O. Williams explains, many of the heads of 725 families in the district, needing assistance, simply refused to go home until a temporary hitch had been remdved and food distributed.

Similar Demands Made Everywhere This is the dramatic Incident that Is calling the attention of the country to a situation, found upon careful Investigation to be amazing. It is not isolated. Officials advise that there have been somewhat similar demands from white American citizens In nearly half of the counties of the state. In each case the Red Cross is caring for needs, and it Is emphasized on every hand that no one need go hungry In this drouth-stricken area. Likewise, there Is a brighter side of the picture, but that Is another story.

England, is in Lonoke county, the home of Senator Joe T. Robinson, minority leader of the United States Senate. It Is normally a rich farming section. But Jan. 1, at an executive session of the state drouth relief committee, Senator Robinson told the meeting that men were hungry In his county, and that it waa going to be necessary to provide food or there would be trouble.

"It is worse than the one resulting from the flood of 1927, but few realize It" "It Is the most peculiar disaster in the country's history," explained Mr.

Haddock. "It is Impossible for people not In the drouth area to begin to realize what has happened. A hurricane, a flood or a tornado, all tell their story. This was insidious, creeping up after the crops had been ruined, to be followed by natural credit difficulties and the exhaustion of funds with which to purchase food. Actual want Is only now beginning to be widespread." And Arkansas Is only one of 12 drouth stricken states.

Yet a survey mnde by both the Federal department of agriculture and the Red Cross shows that this is the hardest hit of the group, with Kentucky next and eastern Oklahoma third.

"If a family can recover from Its own resources or credit from the effects of the drought," says Mr. Payne, "it is not given Red Cross assistance. The Red Cross cannot provide a complete Insurance against all the hazards of agriculture and Industry.

Its purpose is to give whatever assistance is necessary to prevent suffering. The relief which it administers must be regarded as a stepping stone to recovery. Individual Relief Believed Necessary "The needs of the families affected by the drought vary in accordance with the standards of the community and family. Persons requiring help in one county might be considered well-to-do In another. For these reasons, it Is necessary that the Red Cross administer relief on a case by case consideration." President Hoover is honorary chairman of the Red Cross.

While the Red Cross does not receive any Government appropriation It is close to the Government in every sense. If any Government funds were dispensed to relieve distress, It probably would be through the Red Cross. But the latter organization has shown itself able to gather funds in any national emergency by canvassing the American people. If the (Red Cross does Its job well and is getting the funds It is seeking from the public, there will be little chance of legislation by Congress establishing a "dole" system and the pending amendment probably will be changed in conference with that point of view in mind.

This led John Barton Payne, chairman of the American Red Cross, who was formerly secretary of the interior in the cabinet of President Wilson, to send a lengthy exposition of the Red Cross machinery in a communication to the Senate appropriations committee. Drought relief, according to Mr. Payne, is being financed locally by donations of cash and supplies. He points out that the purpose of the Red Cross is to relieve "needs, not losses" and that every encouragement is given to an individual to find employment so as to avoid expenditure for those who can really help themselves and to spend money and supplies only on those who are in distress or virtually helpless. With its experience throughout the world in the effects of earthquakes, floods, famines and other disasters, the Red Cross has developed local organizations and services.

Necessary food and clothing and other relief have been given by the Red Cross to families whose income has been greatly reduced or entirely wiped out by the drought. More than 50,000 families representing approximately 250,000 Individuals in 17 states, mostly in the drought areas, have been assisted and it has cost about $849,965, of which about $500,000 has been paid I il! sail Jan. 17 aboard the By JOHN P.
