Famine in China Report Describes Mass Starvation Outside Tientsin
The Associated Press reports 30,000 Chinese gathered on a bare field near Tientsin waiting for food that never arrived, later dying. Engineer BE Glines warns of 10,000,000 plus more starving this winter and spring without aid, due to crop failures in five northern provinces and high global food prices. He urges irrigation, flood control, and transport improvements while cautioning against profiteers and praising aid efforts.
