LUXEMBOURG IS RE-
SIGNED TO INEVITABLE

The Hague. March 2S.-(Corre-
spondence)-"Lux is resigned
to the inevitable" said F. de Colnet
Huart, the charge d'affaires here for
the little grand duchy. to The As
ISOLATED Press correspondent. Mr..
Huart has Just returned to his post
at the Hague after about twelve
months absence, and he is almost the
only link between his secluded coun-
! try and the outside world. Com
pletely surrounded by warning ma
tons and itself in occupation of the
| invader, Luxembourg is in q helpless
position.
The Germans" Mr.. Huart told the
but never except in exchange for
something else. We recently bar
tered red clover seed against q little
breadgrain. and so We carry on.
The Germans are in effective pos
session Of the whole Grand Duchy as
! far Is the control Of the great arteries
of communication are concerned. The
most direct route from the whole CEN
ter OF the western front to the main
German home bases leads through
Luxembourg.
oh yes. we are still an independent
country" Mr. Huart went on, with
the ghost OF smile. I'VE are not
, 'requisitioned,' as the Belgian people
are. In the rural districts, we do our
own policing to prevent robberies of
! farm products and to keep down
smuggling. ! must admit that the
occupying forces behave generally
we'll. Fortunately our people are
quiet and sedate by nature. Slight
friction occurs once in while-what
would you?-but nothing serious. We
can only stand and wait.
Our Grand Duchess is still on the
throne, and we have purely bust
ness government Of five-three cleri-
cal and two liberals: but nobody
hothers about local politics just now.
Our only problem is how to keep
alive. Evidences OF undertaking are
becoming apparent everywhere.
Every single article of consumption
is strictly rationed. OF bread we get
200 grams a day. and it is very poor
in quality. Sugar we haven't seen
for months. Butter and soap are also
extremely scarce. Our only hope is
now the potato crop. If that fails, we
are lost"
