BERLIN, November 10. 1916.-Tortilo-
vitz Won Batocki must be named along
with DIR. Won Bethniann Hollweg.
Hindenburg and Mackensen in any
enumeration of German war leaders.
There are many who think that Batocki
should head the list, for no man in
central Europe has had to cope with a
more difficult problem than has the
food dictator. who has so far success
fully defended against starvation
60. 900. 900 people and the destinies OF
an empire. The imperial chancellor
himself has carried no greater load of
responsibility than the president of the
war sustenance office. who is despot of
the German kitchen and guardian of
the German stomach.
Last spring and early summer. in the
beginning of Batockfs reign. all Ger
many watched fearfully the leaden
skies and shivered inthe chilling rains
in anticipation of ruined harvest,
which meant starvation, time OF
misery and terror, the deathblow to the
hopes of a nation. The stores from
the last harvest, poor one. were
rapidly depicting, and were being doled
out in ever-lessening rations. And
through May and early June it rained
day after day. and day after day the
sun refused to show itself.

lar suffering in the entente countries
that they forgot to grumble, while
many others. when they had been once
shown a way to help themselves. be-
gan to plant all manner of things in
all manner of places. 1t was not an
uncommon thing to find grass plot,
twenty feet by twenty feet, trans
formed into potato patch. Geese APP
peared everywhere. Even apartment
house jewellers went into the neigh
boring country, rented small strips OF
land and became farmers or poultry
men. While the sum total of produce

novices was likely not very large the
effect of occupying the peoples atten-
ton and calming them was important,
as was also the training they got, pre-
pairing them to become serious helpers
in the food production of the year to
come.
Batocki was thoroughly trained in
the ways of German bureaucracy and
an authority on the laws and prece-
dents of German administration. More
over he was thoroughly acquainted
it's past productions and it's possibili-
ties. Early in his administration he
determined that one system of food
rations and of distribution must extend
over the whole empire. He undertook
tour of the country in order to ac-
quaint himself with conditions in the
different states and to prepare the peo-
Pile for the acceptance of his organiza-
ton. Bavaria looked with suspicion
upon any plan that should call upon
produce
favored sister state of Saxony or with
unproductive districts in Prussia. The
country people saw no good reasons
for denying themselves the comforts of
their own production in favor of in
creasine the rations of the city dwell
err. These feelings. in many cases
amounting to ill will. had to be over
come before a unified plan for ration
ing whole nation could be put into
practice.

Is Cause of Fear
Among the People.

OF certain tree parks. Even the ca
hausted coffee grounds were saved to
be prepared as feed for cattle. The
quality of the war-bread sank. The
naval experts. the newspapers, the
man-in- the-stree all insistently de-
manded that Germany should not starve
without striking a fearful blow in self
defense. that submarine warfare
against merchant shipping should be
resumed, freed from all restrictions.
In this dreary, forlorn situation Batocki,
a bureaucrat of East Prussia, was sum-
moned to take charge.
Ratocki was given such broad pow
ers as practically to make him sub
ordinate only to the imperial chan
cellor. The people at first, however.
did not realize the Importance and far
reaching powers of the new official, for
Batocki, of Polish descent, is, above all.
tactful and thoroughly versed in the
ways of human nature. He began his
difficult task by taking the people into
his confidence, issuing numerous opti-
mistic interviews which were circu-
lated throughout the press of the coun-
try. In this he testified his admira-
ton for American methods.
Shortly after the appointment of the
new dictator articles began to appear
in the papers purporting to describe
bad food conditions in England, Rus
sra ana france. l<lheWlse dppcdIcu d
food of articles urging everybody to
contribute to the general production
of food. Village papers advised all
their readers to breed goats, and to
assure themselves of a milk supply by
keeping at least one female goat.
Other articles pointed out that there
were no good reasons for the suburbanite
to neglect farming his grass plot and
his flower beds or to prevent him from
breeding chickens and geese for his
own use.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1917-01-18

This press work of the new dictator
was productive of results. Many there
