GERMANY OPENS AND
READS ALL LETTERS
Postmaster Kelly, Of Brooklyn, Tells Of
Censorship by the kaiser's
Government.

New York. Sept. S.-Letters sent to
this country from Germany are being
opened by the German government. ac-
cOrding to a statement by postmaster
William f Kelly. of Brooklyn.
According TO postmaster Kelly huge
stacks Of German mail have been re-
ceived at the Brooklyn office and every
letter has been opened. The responsible
ity fer the censorship is Indicated plain
" by the words stamped on each en-
velOpe. Opened by the German govern
ment"
It is said also that she letters bear
evidence that the German government
has forbidden the sending out Of the
country Of any letters written in other
than the German language. This. il is
said, was indicated by the fact that even
the letters sent by Americans in Ger
many to their friends or relatives here
are written in German.
It was said here that only the coun-
try from which the mail comes could be
responsible for the opening OF the let
ters- as no mails arriving here from the
war zone pass through hostile terri
tories. The German mail. which is COM
paratively light now. is arriving mainly
by way Of Holland. Denmark and Nor
way, and consequently never gets into
the hands Of the allied nations. English
and French mails are coming direct, and
consequently are comparatively safe
from molestatiOn by the German or
Austrian governments.

SHORTAGE IN SEEDS
Is CAUSED BY WAR
Merchants say Vegetable Outlook Is
Dismal, uS Farmers Depend
on Europe

New York, Sept S.-There Is going
to be a serious shortage in vegetable
seeds. and consequently in vegetables
in this country II the European war is
not over soon. The same is true in the
case of many flower seeds Fortunately
for this country. however. the great
staples, such as wheat and rye seeds,
are supplied entirely from our own soil.
and the war can affect them in no way
Practically the entire supply OF such
seeds as beets. spinach, cauli1Ower and
parsnips comes from sections of Europe
that are now paralyzed by warfare
There will be practically none OF these
vegetables grown in America next
spring unless the war ends by that time.
Most of the vegetable seeds are
bought from Europe bee use they can
be produced more cheaply on the other
side American farmers never have
been able to compete with their Euro
pean brethren in this respect The seeds
can be produced, however, in this coun-
try and will be produced in all proba-
bility if the war continues. but not this
year. hence there will be a shortage
next spring.
In the case OF flowers the seeds for
tulips and hyacinths and lilies Of the
valley come almost entirely from En-
rope At present the seed merchants
cannot see how they are going to get
supply for the coming season. They
hope that the seeds will come, but there
is little doubt that the prices will be
increased very much.

After war has been forced on US
the German nation, emperor and
