The latest wrinkle in food stuffs is
boiled cabbage in cans. All you have
to do is heat the can in hot water,
open it and forget lifes trials and
tribulations in getting outside of the
contents. This ought to fill a long-felv
want. We are nlebian enough to lov1
boiled cM»bage* and have always de
plored the fact that it smells to high
heav* n when cooked in the hou-e. call
ing the neighbors* attention to the
ft»c! that we are not aristocratic. Noth*
ing will modify that odor unless you
>houhl mix in limburger cheese and
glue* and we have been tempted to
seek out I.uthor Burbank and ask h m
if he couldn’t think up some scheme
to graft the cabbage with heliot’Op**
and violet- but this new canned art id ‘
may solve the problem.

**A11 Rumania is earing flour fvom
America today, The people realize
where the aid ha eorne from and arc
e\e H'dingly giateful. Without ^Ameri
can help staivation certainly would
have become very grateful. Without
American h»!p starvation certainly
would have become very general.
Tpese are the words of Lieutenant
Colonel H. Gideon Wells, American
Red Cross Commissioner to Ruvuanit:,
who recently arrived at Delgradh from
Bucharest.
Colonel Wells said the great bulk
of the Rumanian food supply, includ
ing about twenty thousand tons of
flour monthly, is furnished by the
American Food* Administration.*It -is
sold in wholesale quantities to the
government, which attends to %all de
tails. of transport and distribution.
Flour trains run continually from the
ports to the interior and have the
right-of-way over all other transport.
The supply is being \yeli-handled anti
there is no longer danger of starvation
except in iso’ated areas, particularly
in the Pobrudja region, where local
transport is exceedingly difficult.
Supplementary to the Food Admin
istration program the American Red
Crass Commission to Rumania has al
ready developed a nation-wide food
ami clothing relief program which
aims particularly at the relief of the
destitute, the welfare of orphans, the
organization of sewing-rooms and the
general amelioration of conditions.
This effort lias had the hearty eoop
eration of the Rumanian government.
From King Ferdinand and Queen Ma
rie to theja-'t clerk, the Rumanian
people ai*' very grateful, and “to«be
an American is to be honored.”
The Commission to Rumania has

WASHINGTON'-.July 17— More
than a ton of incoming mail daily, an 1
nearly as much outgoing mail, ha
made it necessary for the bureau •*'
War risk insurance to build up a post
al system of its own larger than •
maintained by any single institution
except the postoffice in tin' l nil* >1
States. An announcement today by t ?:* *
bureau said an average of £0.000 per
sons write daily, inquiring about a!#
lotmcnts and allowances, in.->u»an« •
policies, ov compensation payments, o- '
remitting cheeks and cqrrencv as pre
miums on insurance. This also mca?
that each letter must be answered and
that makes an outgoing mail of SO.
000 letters.
Since the bureau has 13,000 nn
ployes and 30 divisions devoted to var
ious phases of the bureau’s work . th *
opening . reading, sorting and deliver-,
of these letters to the proper division?;
is a task requiring more than 100 om
ployes.
Mail is received every halt hour,
and most of it is opened by machinea
and tied in bundles for delivery to tin*
fii>t set of readers. The readers per
use eadi letter to ascertain to whnt
division it should be routed, check up
to s°e that the envelope contains the
check or hill which the letter may say
it contains, and that the return ad
dress is on the letter as well as the
envelope. Thousands of letters come
without return address making it dif
ficult to trace them. Hundreds of en
velopes contain currency without let
tor or address to identify them. Many
are signed by fen inadequate nam* .
such as “Mrs. f^mith,” so that identi
fication must he worked out laborious
ly by clerks.
When letters give insufficient info’

necessary information is sent to the
