supply in Germany shows no shortage
present or prospective; that in Servia
where there is much restitution, there
is considerable food shortage, but con-
ditions are improving and the situa-
tion is encouraging generally through

a food shortage or will have one is de-
cciving himself" said Mr.. BicknelL.
The German government has just
made 4 complete inventory and has
found it has now enough to feed the
German people until Nov. l, without
counting on the new crops now coming
