PEOPLE STARVING
CONDITIONS IN POLAND FRANCE’S SKIMPY RATION (Rec. 11 a.m.) LONDON, March 21. According to a Warsaw message, the Ministry of Food stated that 7,000,000 Poles were living on less than 1000 calories daily, and that in sections of Warsaw and Cracow people were starving. Mrs. Herbert Hoover, after an investigation of the food situation in France, declared she must have undiminished aid from the Western world in the next critical four months to save the present skimpy ration, says the Associated Press Paris correspondent. Mr Hoover predicted that if. France reaped a fair harvest she would be on her feet. He pointed out that France, since last July, imported for herself and North Africa 2,600,000 tons of wheat.
