Be Postponed Tor Another year.
Havana, March 13. n One who has
lived even for brief period in the
restaurants and hotels in Germany
stands aghast in France as he does
in Switzerland at the prodigal and ex
traordinary waste of food Not that
Germany is starving BY organization

these new crops respond in fair meas

ties for observation and for obtaining

Must Damage Enemies.
1t is the settled conviction of nu.
merous members OF the Gerard party
that the Germans are in such a des-
perate frame Of mind they must be
ready and willing to obtain and carry
out any scheme to damage or incon-
venience an enemy
Mr.. Gerard's official responsibility
still is to he discharged in the form
of reports TO the president and the de
partment and recommendations regard
ing the course to be followed by the
United States toward Germany
Ii is betraying no trust to say Mr.
Gerard places about the smallest pos
sible confidence in the good faith OF
Germany or German officials; that he
regards the condition OF Germany as
desperate, especially where the sup
ply OF food and general economic con
ditions. including finance, are con
cerned; that he knows the frame OF
mind of responsible German officials
to be quite in keeping with their rec
ogntion OF the desperate situation OF
their country 1t was his clear recog
milton of these facts which has added
SO greatly to his anxiety during the
entire journey from Berlin to Havana
