(Received June 23, 12.30 a.m.)
London, June 22.
Lecturing before the War Committee in Berlin, Professor Ballad said that according to the London Times the shortage in the German food supplies was only 12 per cent., so that the attempt to starve Germany had failed. The danger now to be averted was that of excessive optimism, which might result in waste- If the war lasted another year Germany would have to practice great economy. There would bo sufficient bread and potatoes, but the authorities- would have to reduce the consumption of meat.
