MEAT IS HARD TO GET
IN GERMANY, PEOPLE FIND

Berlin, Germany. June For the
first time since the outbreak of the
war, meat is hard TO obtain in the CAPT
tai and larger cities OF the German
empire. Meat lines have grown as long
as the butter and milk lines and those
forming them sometimes wait for hours
before they can procure the quota al
lotted by their cards
Responsible for this condition are the
heavy demands made upon the meat
supply by the army. an almost total
cessation of imports. and the govern
ment's new policy Of discOuraging the
Strengthening Of meat animals before
fattening.
