CAN'T DIGEST BREAD
Holland Doctors Declare PopuIace's
Health Demands Better Flour.

The Hague, June 13.-Holland's war
bread, which has been in use for the
last few weeks, will have to be
changed. The Holland populace says

agree.

European countries. the Holland
bread was made of flour which con-
tanned the husks of the wheat. Even
the sturdy Dutch stomach was unable
to endure the scrapings and scratch
ings of the wheat husks and shortly
the physicians of Dutch cities and
towns had a rush of patients whose
digestive organs had gone wrong. The
doctors quickly traced the trouble to
the war bread.
