SHIPS TO CARRY GOODS
TO SOUTH AMERICA.
Washington, December 22.—Cargo
\space for all goods purchased in this
country and awaiting shipment to
[South America probably will be sup
‘plied in the near future.
The war trade board announced
to-day that Dutch shipping totaling
50,000 tons already is available in
United States ports or on the way
here and that other ships are being
assigned for South American traffic.
Eleven Dutch ships, six of which
are now in American waters, were
ordered to the United States for
grain, but owing to the congestion
at American grain ports, Helland has
decided to divert the vessels to South
America. The war trade board has
facilitated this movement by grant
ing bunker coal, not only for the trip
to South America, but for the return
journey.
“With the allotment of other ton
nage,” said the board’s announce
ment, “the merchants in Brazil, Ar-‘
gentina, Uruguay and other South
American points will be able to se
cure without further delay the goods
which have been purchased and stored
here and other goods which are now
on order.”

dy, toys and games sent from Amer
ica, will be distributed, each child, in
addition, being glven some article

Two hundred children who have
returned to the ruined village of Cre
