War Issue May Be: Who Can Feed Europe?
NEW YORK, June 20.
The United States was going to help Britain with all her available means, said the secretary of the Dairymen’s League Co-operative Association, at a meeting today. He added: “The war issue may finally be: Who can feed Europe’s hungry people, the democracies or the dictatorships? The answer is the democracies.”
Te secretary said he had received reliable information that the Italian people are sick of war and want peace. Germany was taking a good deal of food from Italy despite Italy’s poor food situation.
The Italian diet was normally frugal and therefore severe rationing hit the poor people veyy hard. Unoccupied France was in a terrible condition, snd Belgium was' even worse. .
