At a meeting of the City Council of Neukoelen, a Berlin suburb, Herr Heimann, a Socialist, protseting against the Government further diminishing the potato, bread, and flour rations, said it was impossible to live on two kilogrammes of potatoes weekly. It is now proposed to reduce this to kilogrammes per 10 days. The director of the Neukolen Food Office states that supplies are short and inadequate for workers. Hu» dreds demand food which the office is unable to supply. As the Government had left them in the lurch he declined responsibility for what might happen.
