GERMAN AGENTS START
FOOD SHORTAGE SCARE

WashIngton.-The work of
German agents among house
wives TO cause a disruption In
the markets of household neces-
stiles and inclte discomfort
with war conditions has caused
false shortage in some places
in commodities that really are
to be had In plenty.
The national food administra-
ton, commenting on the reports
of three successive buying drives
by housewives throughout the
the country on salt, laundry blue
and matches, says there is no
lack of these commodities among
small retailers by the excessive
buying, that the national stock
is as large as ever, with no pos
sible likelihood of shortage with
normal demand from the con-
sumner.
The housewife is warned to
disregard rumors and not to
overstock, as such unnecessary
buying may cause real shortages
for q short time In certain To-
calities.

SAWDUST BREAD
FED BY GERMANS
TOU.S PRISONERS
But They Were Given Better
Treatment Than Italian and
Russian Soldiers.
AMERICAN HEADQUARTERS IN

AMERICAN HEADQUARTERS IN
FRANCE Nov. 27 (Associated
Press).-The examination OF Ameri-
can prisoners released from German
prison camps and reaching identifica-
tion camps virtually has been con-
cluded under the direction OF army
surgeons.
The examinations indicate that the
physical condition OF the men in
general is as good as could be ex-
pected. although some cases are re-
ported where the men complained of
bad treatment, bad shelter and poor
and insufficient food
or several thousand men examined
no evidence has been found OF re-
ported cases OF inoculation with
malignant and contagious diseases.
General complaint was mado by
both officers and men that their food
was extremely bad and their quarters
uncomfortable. Specimens OF bread
brought back were found to contain
sawdust and other coarse and ined =
ible elements. In the majority OF
cases. the men said their housing and
food we're not much worse than the
shelter and rations Of the German
soldiers.
In one classification camp where
approximately 1000 men from the
Allied armies were examined. one
French soldier and five British sol
diers complained OF brutal treatment,
while there was no complaint from
any OF the Americans under this
head. There was a general complain
at this camp OF bad food. poor shell
ter and lack OF liberty. but condi-
tions were no worse than had been
expected by army officers.
Americans who were confined in
German prisons with Russians and
Italians we're found well satisfied
with their treatment In comparison
with that given the Russians and Ital
ian soldiers.
