FOOD SHORTAGE
GERMANY’S PLIGHT A FATEFUL WINTER AHEAD TEST FOR NAZIS (United Press Assn.—Telegraph Copyright.) (Rec. 9.15 p.m.) London, November 5. The Berlin correspondent of the Daily Express, referring to food hoarding and the measures being taken against profiteers, says this will be Germany’s most fateful post-war winter. If the people can be fed oh the slim stores available the Nazis may survive to carry out their ambitious resurrection of Germany; if not, the sequel cannot be foretold. There is a 15 per cent, shortage of food throughout the country and practically no foreign currency with which to import more. Every measure is being taken to ensure economy of foodstuffs and raw materials, and every invention is being used to make substitutes. Berlin’s buses are running on benzoline made in Germany, clothes are being made from synthetic wool, and luxuries have been forgotten.
