GERMANS HALF FED
Figures Show Amount Weekly Less
Than so Per Cent of Amount Required.

Than so Per Cent of Amount Required.
Washington, d. c., Oct. Recently
obtained figures on the German weekly
food rations were made public by the
food administration yesterday with the
observation that it is far below the
amount required to maintain bodily
health and vigor and is likely to have
serious and permanent results.
Computed in terms of American house
keeping the weekly ration amounts APP
proXimately to four and one half pounds
of bread, a half peck of potatoes cup
full of beans, peas or oatmeal, a half
pound of meat II cubes of sugar, six
individual patties of butter, and an equal
amount Of other fats The caloric value
of these foods in the aggregate is less
than half the amount estimated by the
food administration as sufficient for a
person in a sedentary occupation.
Reports to the state department indi
cate that the German harvests this wear
have not relieved the food situation to
any appreciate extent II is known
that there is great scarcity Of fats and
animal food in general and that supplies
received from Rumania and neighboring
neutrals are not making up for the lack
of proteins
As the reports come from different
sources and sections, it is difficult for the
department to give an opinion on the
general situation, but il has been def
nitely established that while some of the
crops were normal in volume. the scantv |
supplies in most commodities have not /
been augmented
