RETURNING AMERICANS
 TELL OF THE
 LACK IF MEAT
Practically All The Meat is Sold By The Card System No Display is Made In
 Show Windows.

PARIS, Feb 23.-Some of the return ing Americans from Germany with Ambassador Gerard, are congratulat- ing themselves on having escaped fur ther wrestling with Germany's food problem.
 One of the new arrivals said that butchers windows well stocked with assorted meats are unknown in Ger many.
 Meat is now so scarce in the German capital that it is never hung in win dows to attract buyers, but is speedily distributed without advertising. Gus toners keep in close touch with the butcher, so as to know when the next meager supply will be on hand.
 Practically all meat is sold on a card emitting each person to half a pound weekly, but dishes made of scraps can be bought in restaurants without card Game and poultry are exempt from the card system and command extraordinary prices. The maximum prices for pork and mutton range from 50 to 70 cents, but a dollar more is paid at back doors, for, despite Ger mans genius for organization, much surreptitious dealing prevails.
