“CONSUMPTION CALENDAR”
GERMANS TIGHTEN THEIR BELTS AUGUST A MEATLESS MONTH Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright LONDON, March 11, • (Received March 12, at 11 a.m.) “The increased prices Germany is obliged to pay for raw materials has caused a further tightening of belts,” says the ‘ Morning Post’s ’ Munich correspondent. “ Pure butter cannot be obtained, and a decrees forbids the sale of white flour. Cream is obtainable only by doctor’s prescription, while oranges and olive oil are very scarce. The consumption of fish, always disliked in Germany, has been enjoined as a duty to the Fatherland. General Goering’s department is drawing up a ‘ consumption calendar ’ naming particular foods which must be eaten each month of the year, with the object of economising supplies. August will be a meatless month.”
