situation with further difficulties, and

ing since Germany gave assurances

Before the next step is taken, col

in the form Of aflidavits and state

hassy in Paris is arriving on the

The situation will h. thoroughly

Will Get
That Dock

Construction of the long-sought
,ishermans dock and breakwater
at; Old Town, a project which
former City Engineer Raleigh es-
timated would cost $25, 900, was
promised today by Commissioner
Gronen.
If it is possible to raise the
funds, one unit of the work will
he started this year.
7 ~ am making plans for the
new breakwater and dock" Gro
men said this morning, land hope
to start construction this year.
However, there are other pro-
jects, repairs on streets and
bridges, which are absolutely vi
tai, and | cannot touch the Old
Town proposition until the others
are completed.
II consider that the jetty and
dock are very important. Pre-
gious administrations have taken
no action to assist tho fisher
men, and as a result more than
half of our fishing industry has
gone to Seattle or other north
Sound ports"
Gronen today asked the city
council for an emergency appro-
priation OF $2,549.75 for repairs
to streets and bridges.
He also asked for money with
which to buy a second hand pile
driver. 1t would cost $1,400.

|GerIllanY'S
Meat Lid
Goes Down

BERLIN, June 5.-Civilians in
Germany must not eat meat for
the next eight weeks, Adolpli
Won Batocki, food dictator, frank
ly stated today. discussing the
food situation with the United
Press.
He declared that this should
not alarm Germany, nor should il
elate Germanys enemies. If the
coming harvest is only medium,
starvation of Germany through a
British blockade will be impos-
sible.
"'The siege has just begun" he
said. THE coming eight weeks
may cause discomfort to the Ger
mans who are fond of meat. Fur
thermore, the meat shortage is
apt to continue three months.
Cattle are lean now because of
the poor harvest last year, and
cannot be slaughtered. We must
wait until they are fattened.
Meanwhile we have enough meat
for the military hospitals and
places where it is urgently
needed. -
There is enough food in Ger
many, but it is necessary for
civilians to eat no meat for the
next eight weeks to insure a sup
ply this winter. Probably meat
cards will be issued throughout
Germany"
Farmers declare the present
weather is highly providential.
Ambassador Gerard, returning
from hunting lodge, reported
