The situation v. as oecom.n? des
perate, when Ambassador Rage pro
posed that Mr Ho.ver .nd<-rtaße the
work. Germany immediately acceded
to this plan, saying she would ex- .
tend every aid possible to such a com
mission and Krigland promptly raised j
restrictions on food exports.
Formal organiza’l .n of the com
mission has Just been completed. Mr.
Hoover has already purchased with
’he funds supplied by the Belgian
relief committee $150,000 worth of
food, which will he sent to Belgium
tomorrow on a specially chartered ship
byway of K .Mordant.
The food situation in Belgium Is
critical.
More than 500,000 persons already
are being assisted through bread lines.
According to the committee's reports
there are more than 300,000 of these
persons In Brussels alone. The sup
ply of fond for these bread stations, 1
It Is estimated, will not last more than
a week longer. It. Is .expected that
number of persons requiring relief'
will Increase to a million within a
month.
Specially chartered steamships soon
will start for Holland with their car
goes consigned to officers of the com-;
mission at various places In Belgium.
Hoover Outlines Situation.
Half a million dollars was placed at
the disposal of Mr. Hoover yesterday
from the various Belgian funds and
through Ambassador Rage $750,000
was turned over to the commission Ibis
morning. Speaking of the work of the
commission, Mr. Hoover said:
