Food Outlook for
Germany Is Grave
1918 Harvests to Produce
Less Than in 1917; No
Help From Ukraine
Especial Dispatch to The Tribune)


WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.-There is
sufficient sugar to supply all the needs
of the United States ard our allies,
provided the present ration of two
pounds a person a month is continued,
Herbert G. Hoover, Food Administrator,
declared to-day. No further restric-
tons on it's use were contemplated, he
said.
The food situation in enemy coun-
tries would reach an acute stage this
"sA~:ar. Mr.. Hoover said, according to
information given him by intelligence
officers of Allied powers while he was
in Europe.
Small Crops for Enemy
Mr.. Hoover said the Central Powers
would get less out of the 1918 harvests
in all the territory under their control
than they did in 1917.
an Germany the grain crops at pres
ent promise to yield about the same as
last year." Mr.. Hoover said. "In Hun
gary they are a little better, and in
Austria considerably worse than in 1917
can extreme drouth has ruined crop
centres in Rumania, and has it's ex-
tremities in Bulgaria on one hand and
in the Ukraine on the other. The grain
situation in Rumania is SO serious that
the Rumanian government has already
asked the Allies for relief.
"The significance of these disastrous
crop conditions in Rumania and Bull
garia in connection with the German
food situation is best emphasized by
the fact that the Central Powers drew
between three and four million tons of
grain out of the two countries last
year Both Rumania and Bulgaria are
normally wheat exporting countries.
Russian Harvest Poor
an the Ukraine generally and
greater Russia the grain harvest will
be bad. The peasant lands have pro-
duced fairly we'll nbut the large estates
of the landlords, who were disposed
by the Bolsheviks, have not been
worked, and in consequence great
producing area has remained fallow.
1t is probable that there will be an
acute starvation area in greater Russia
during the next year. This will centre
in those sections which normally have
drawn their bread supplies from ST.
IBERIA or the Ukraine and the territory
bordering on the Caspian Sea.
Germany may possibly obtain some
wheat from the northern part of the
Ukraine, but this is practically the only
occupied territory under her control
to which she may look for food sup
plies"

Three Missouri Valley

LAWRENCE. Kan, May IL
Negotiations for the annual tennis
meet of the schools Of the Missouri
valley athletic organization have re-
yealed that only three Of the schools
Missouri University, Kansas Uni
yersity and the Iowa Asgies OF Ames
are making any attempts to or
ganize tennis squads, ana each OF
these admits 1t has met with dis
couragement due to the lack OF
material. As , the effect Of the war
on athletics, tennis appears to be
the worst sufferer in the Missouri
valley.
With onjy three teams available
for a tennis meet, both the Kansas

jected the proposal of entertaining
the contest, and il Ames does like
wise, there will be no Missouri meet
this spring other than possibly a
dual meet between the Missouri and
