S. and Germany Stops Grain Imports The Hague, Netherlands, May 4.— Nearly all Holland has been put on a system of government rations because of the. virtual stopping of srain im- ports from America as a result of the ruthless submarine warfare and the poor crops of potatoes and other veg- etables. The Entente allles had long since put in use a system of ration- ing the Hollanders in ‘the matter of grain imports but now the halt in the movement of all shipping has caused a virtual cessation of all imports. A breadcard system hdd been - in effect since -February. Under the new .plan, potato and rye flour s mixed with American flour, effecting | an economy of more than 50 per.cent. in the consumption of wheat. Owing to a shortage of the stocks of potatoes, the allowance has been reduced potato-less days have been established. The monthly ration of peas and beans to each person amounts to a little: more than one pound. The other prime necessities of llle that are under direct government con- trol are being distributed to each com- munity according to the number of its inhabitants, the local authorities then dividing the supplies l.mon‘ the in- dividuals. Holland is beginning to follow the ; example of Germany in establishing central kitchens. The principal one thug far put into operation is at Rot- terdam. It provides about a quart of warm food for a sum equal to four American cents. When prepared the food is rapidly transported to seven- teen parts of the city where distribu- tion is made. Food and hunger demonstrations occur occasionally. In these socialists are active in bringing the needs of the people tn the attention of the gov- ernment officials. . $1.68 . $3.75 $7.50 .$1,79 white and beige color- A pretty at Warehouse inable schemes to move | iot April, A.
