SALT FAMINE SCARE
ONLY A GERMAN YARN
Food administration Finds Same
False RumOr About Matches And
Laundry Blue.

Washington. Nov. 21.-Evidence
that German propagandists are
spreading reports that there is a
famine Of salt, laundry blue, and
matches is in the possession of the
Food Administration.
In each case, it is said, the German
agents have started buying drives
in an effort to interrupt the ordinary
channels Of business, spread alarm.
among the consumers, and cause dis
content with the Government pro
gram. In some cases households
have stored up sufficient quantities OF
the commodities for a years use.
The Food Administration announ-
ces that there is no actual shortage
in either salt. matches, or laundry
blue; that the national stock is as
large az ever. with no possibility of
a shortage with normal demand on
the part of the consumer, and that
rumors of any such shortage can be
attributed only TO German agents.
The drive on salt in the present
instance seems to have begun in
New York city something over d
week ago, and spread as far as Bos-
ton and Washington, where many
stOrekeepers absolutely sold out OF
the commodity in couple of days.
Reports have reached Washington OF
similar conditions as far west as
Ohio.
HousekeepeTs purchased as high
as twenty-five bags of salt, and there
is one instance Of man who bought
enough to last his family lifetime.
Immediately following the excessive
purchase Of salt came the cas- eof
laundry blue, based On report that
this article, since it contained Prus
sian blue, soon would be unobtain
able. People seemed to have the
false impression that Prussian blue
must come from Germany. The third
wave Of big buying has been centred
on matches, and its origin has been
traced to Jersey City.
The fact that the buying drives
have come in successive waves points
to organized effort, and it is the be-
lief of the Food Administration that
false rumors concerning other COM
modities may be expected. It,there
fore, warns the housewife to disre-
gard any such reports and not to
overstock, since such procedure
works actual harm and may cause
real shortages for a time in particu
lar localities,
