SHORTAGE OF MONEY
WAGES CANNOT BE PAID,
(AUSTRALIAN-NEW ZEALAND CABLE ASSOCIATION.) BERLIN, 29th October.
The situation in Germany during the week-end is most serious, owing to the inability of the Reichsbank to supply sufficient paper money to pay the week's wages. Ten thousand families are without means to buy a loaf of bread. Fortunately the weather is unusually warm, so the sufferings are less than they might have been. Everywhere in Germany workmen are being dismissed owing to the impossibility of paying wages. Workers are demanding to.be paid in real money, and that clothes and food be provided by the employers or communes.
