Misery Prevailing Among the

ing in Berlin
By Associated Press.
Amsterdam, July 8. Owing to the
lateness 0 the new potato crop, the
Berlin authorities, according to the
Tageblatt, announced the reduction of
the potato ration next week from
three pounds to one and the distribu
tion of an extra 200 grammes of beans
and peas per head.
In the Reichstag, Saturday, Deputy
Matzinger, a member of the center
party, protested against any further
supplies of grain being sent to Aus;
tria.
Deputy Wils, a socialist, declared
that a further reduction in rations was
unbearable.
The people, he said, had no idea of
the misery prevailing among the
masses. Unemployment was increas
ing in Berlin and the wages were in
sufficient to procure the necessary
food. To terminate the war, the
speaker added, would be a greater
economic gain than would be the con
quest of a province.
To Seize Foodstuffs.
According to the Berlin Vorwaerts,
Herr von Waldo, president of the
German food regulations, speaking in
the Reichstag, Saturday, created a
sensation by foreshadowing the im
position of meatless weeks in Ger
many. "Strict management of our crop,"
he said, "is absolutely necessary, and
according to the government's latest
decision, the entire territory of Ger
many and Austria-Hungary will be
subjected to the seizure of foodstuffs,
rationing and the prohibition of free
tradej It will be some time before
large consignments of cor;n arrive
from Ukraine.

Men Unable to Hear
Said to Be Excellent
In Aviation Work
New York, July 8. Tests, con
ducted for several weeks at the
Mineola aviation field, have proved
that deaf men make excellent ma
terial for aviators, according to an
announcement by officers of the
New York Institute for the In
struction of the Deaf. The tests,
it was said, showed the deaf
mutes were less disturbed by the
sensation of flying than normal men
and were more ready for, emergen
cies. Undisturbed by the noise of
the motor, they were apparently
little affected by the vibrations.
ing of farm animals which has oc
curred, it will be necessary, if we are
not to endanger the supply of military
canned fat, to reduce the meat ration
somqwhat in the near future, as soon
as the bread and potato rations are
again restored to their full quantity,
and, moreover, introduce meatless
weeks. A corresponding substitute in
the shape of flour will be given.
"The harvest assuredly will not ful
fill the good prospects of last spring,
but, thanks to the recent rainfall, we
may hope for a medium harvest, so
that, with additions from the east,
we will be in a considerably better
position than we were last year."
