PORTLAND, April 27—While the
Red Cross has made it plain that it
cannot use canceled stamps, thou
sands of which have been saved in
all parts of the country under the mis-^
apprehension that they could be used j
in Europe under Red Cross auspices,
the Belgian consul in New York is
glad to get them, according to a let
ter received here from Martha A. Aig
nier of New York.
The Belgian consul, P. Mali, ac
cording to a letter from him inclosed
by Mrs. Aignier, forwards the can
celed stamps to a relief organiza
tion in France, where they are used
by collectors and others to make
fancy articles, such as dishes, trays
and vases, which are sold to get
money for delicacies and comforts
for wounded Belgian soldiers. His
address is 25 Madison avenue. New
