DRASTIC GERMAN DECREES
NEW YORK, Feb. 6.

The Minister of Economic Affairs, Dr Funk, has issued drastic and sweeping decrees, ordering retail trades, hotels, restaurants, and arts and crafts establishments to release all dispensable labour for army service, and also closing down public entertainment resorts and places of refreshment and curtailing hotel accommodation. The mass levy is expected to yield 3,000,000 new troops by March 1.
