The captured soldiers rise at 6 and at 7 are served a quart of tea or coffee, together with the same ra- tion of bread that German citizens are now allowed under the bread card system. In the canteen are all manner of delicatessen on sale. At 8 o'clock comes sick-list inspec- tion, and then the men go to work until 11, when they are served with a meal consisting of thick soup made of legumes, cabbage and meat, a sort of goulash. The me are prepar- ed by the French and the Belgians under government supervision. The men work in the afternoon until 6:30 when they are given a quart of gruel with potatoes or vege- tables. Once a week fish is served. The following is the noon meal me- nu for one week: Monday, pea soup with meat and es, pota Tuesday Pig knuckles with car- rots and potatoes. Wednesday, Dbarley meat and potatoes. Thursday, fish with onion gravy and potatoes. Friday, bean soup with meat and potatoes. Saturday, mutton, potatoes. Sunday, rice soup with beef and potatoes. The visitor sampled all the foods given to the prisoners and announc- ed it was tasty, and apparently fully as good as that served the German troops. The prisoners, he said, ap- peared healthy and well nourished soup with cabbage and 'some fare.

The authorities have a considerable sup- ply of flour and grain on hand, and some Qfficial statements aver that the stock will last until next harvest although it !s not generally believed. The distribution of flour is going on under rather rigid restrictions. The grain was obtained just in time to avold serious trouble with the populace which has become’very ugly over the prospects of famine. Great preparations are being made for making the next harvest as ample as possible. All agricultural laborers now with the army are to have fourteen days leave for the spring planting, and are required to spend this time in the same local- ity where they worked last year. The government has also announced that groups of soldiers from the re- serves, twenty men in each gromp, may be “rented” for agricultural work on application from approved land-owners. Probably no attempt will be made to employ prisoners of war for this work in Hungary, as the camps where the prisoners are interned are hotbeds of contagious diseases and the prisoners would spread them all over the couatry.
