NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, TUESDAY, & Stoked Boiler for 70 Days v ¥ which 1s roasted and into & cof- fee pubstitute for the family which must save every possible mark, It s potatoes which, after bread, are the most important article of diet with average German family, The lateness of the season and the excessive rain. fall have contributed to the potato ghortage which is becoming very acute and raising much disturbance. Women who cannot buy potatoes in the markets are in despair. That rep. resents a loss of the foundation of the average German family's meal, Meat prices have long been prohibi. tive for families in modest clreum stances. But until recently potatoes were within reach, Butter, butter substitues and all sorts of fats are also extremely scarce in the publie markets and are held at a price be. yond most purses. Rut practically all sorts of foodstuffs are avallable in CALSES FOOD GRS (Collapse of Carrency Main Reason for German Food Shortage Hamburg, Sept. 4. —Germany's ool lapsing currency and the resultant food shortages are producing a sit- uation wholly unlike that in Russia two year sago when the ruble first de. poended to the point where one dol. lar purchased a million rubles F Russians were in the throes of & 4 19 famine caused by droughts in the |Germany If the purchaser is willing 2 N 3 wheat.raising districts.

Consequently Russians suddenly found themselves without food rations and without money as well, as unem- ployment was widespread. The food troubles in Germany are ‘u—nly the result of imperfect distri- ution. There is food in Germany, but the economic crisls and the unwil- lingness of dealers to sell it for paper money which descends in value by leaps and bounds are holding the food out of the market. Food riots in cities and threats of confiscation by Communists have discouraged the tfarmers and market-gardeners from carrying thelr products to centers liable to disorder. It is the old problem of the city against the country, the peasant against the industrial laborer. The farmers are in - better condition in Germany than any other class, and they are holding their products for payment in something more stable than paper marks. They are engag- ing in barter and exchange, as |is common now in Russia. Dealers are particularly unwilling to lot go of any products which are imported, as they cannot raise sufficient gold to replace them. Unless they are paid in gold or its equivalent wholesalers and re- taflers alike prefer to hold their rice and coffee and other staple food pro- ducts which are imported.
