GERMAN WAR BREAD
CAUSE OF SICKNESS
Too Much Bran Blamed for Entenc
Disorders.

Confirmation from the German press
Of individual reports OF enteric disor-
ders among the German army and
populace was received here yester-
day. Germany's war bread is blamed
for the trouble. The Nsueste Mach
richten Of Munich publishes the fol-
lowing:
The effect OF the war bread is
partly TO blame for the spread OF dis
eases of the digestive organs. Since
the introduction of -four milled to 81
per cent, the bread has contained a
quantity Of bran which remains in
the intestines with injurious results.
The general conclusion TO which IN
vestisators have come is that the
milling percentage should be reduced
to considerably below 81 per cent. and
probably ought TO be as low as ~ per
cent
