PROBLEM FOR GERMANY
SUBSTITUTING LAND FOR SEA 5 TRANSPORT . I British Official Wirelessl * Rugby, May 17. The Parliamentary Secretary to the > Ministry of Economic Warfare, Mr Dingle Fool, speaking at Liskeard. said : "In spite of the Marseilles leak and the other leak- through Siberia, Britain has enforced a far stricter blockade than in the first 20 months of the last war. when goods were permitted to flow into Germany from Holland. Denmark. Norway and Sweden. “The sea routes by which German ; industry is normally fed are cut off. Imports from overseas can no longer be carried down the Rhine and Elbe i to the industrial belt of western Ger- | many. It follows that essential supplies must be brought by long unecoI nornic overland routes. One of the chief problems facing Germany is the j substiuting of land for sea transport.”
