FOOD FOR EUROPE.
Germany Says Continent Has Ample Supplies. BRITISH SIAND JUSTIFIED. British Official Wireless. (Reed, noon.) RUGBY, Dec. 13. The decision of the British Government not to agree to any lifting of the blockade for any country under German domination, which was announced bv the late Marquess of Lothian on Wednesday. has been followed by the issue of a report by the Berlin Institute for Konjunkture Forschung. which declared: "Not only Germany but the entire Continent possesses sufficient foodstuffs and agricultural means to guarantee feeding for all countries under German administration." The effect of these assurances on the anxieties expressed in certain unofficial American quarters will be awaited with interest. By implication the report constitutes a repudiation of the need for the Hoover plan, facilities for the operation of which have been refused by the British Government.
