GERMAN’S RATIONS
The following excerpt from the United States Government bulletin “Foreign Agriculture” for October, 1941, may discourage wishful-think-ing about starvation and food riots in Germany: “Present food consumption in Germany compared with that during the World War from 1916 is characterised by considerably larger aggregate food allowances and considerably more rational distribution among consumer groups. Long and night workers, heavy workers and extra-heavy workers now also have rations considerably above those granted in the last war, and they are being made available to a much larger number of people than was then the case. The soldiers’ diet is also better and more scientifically balanced than it was in 1914-18.” —New York “Post.”
