DEA` II LIST WILL BE MILZION From the Famine and Pestilence in China Before Spring Arrives P � A despatch from Nanking, China, says: That the deaths due to fam- ine, and the pestilence following in its wake, will total a. million before spring,; was the estimate submitted to the relief committee here on Fri- day. Relief workers are aghast with the realization of the task be- fore them. Even were they in re- reipt of unlimited contributions for. relief, the missionaries, doctors, and other volunteer workers would be `'almost' helpless in the face of two and one-half millions of suffer- ing people in the Anhui and Kiang Su Provinces Murder is now adding to the death roll, reported William F. Junkim, Presbyterian missionary at Suchien. In their desperation at the lack of food, he said, the bol- der of the natives have formed ma- rauding bands, who stop at no- thing in robbing wayfarers and plundering houses. In many towns persons wearing good clothes fear to go on the street at night, lest they be waylaid and; stripped' of their garments, which can be sold for cash by the starving highway- men. Scores of intta.nees, of kid- napping have been reported. 7th mmense Crowd Watches the Launching of • the Thunderer.
