Food Shortage ReachesPro
portions of Famine in
Germany Says Writer.
By W. G. BRIIT0N-BELNOIR.

London, Eng, July Germany is
being starved. As to this there can
be no possible doubt The cumulative
evidence Of independent witnesses is
too unanimous and too detailed TO be
ignored.
In a sense, It IS the most stupen-
dous and terrible tragedy recorded
in history. When. in 1870. 1000, 900
Parisians were reduced during the
siege to the verge OF famine. the
whole world thrilled with horror at
the spectacle. But here we have TO-
100000 Germans in an even worse
plight. not TO mention some $4,000, 900
Austrians.
It is difficult for the average Briton
70 imagine what this means. Here we
have undergone deprivation. but we
have not, as a nation. suffered priTa-
ton; while famine is faroff spec
ter, hardly considered because never
likely 10 materialize.
No Dogs Left.
But in Germany there is a famine
in every single essential OF life, bar
ring only air and water. Just one
instance. The other day the censor
issued an order TO the Berlin news
papers prohibiting the publication Of
advertisements Of dog flesh Imme-
diately a ripple Of grim, ironic laugh
ter ran from one end Of the capital
to the other. The people there know
that there are now practically no
dogs left in Berlin-or. for that mat
ter, anywhere else in Germany-for
two different reasons There is no
food to give the dogs. and the peo-
pie have eaten the dogs for food.
Nine months ago, when the prob
lem was not nearly so acute a s il now
Is. Mr.. Gerard made the astounding
statement that the Germans would
not, in the event Of necessity, hesi-
tate purposely TO starve all persons
over a certain age. People here In
America shrugged their shoulders in
creduously. They simply could not
believe in the possibility Of such a
horror being perpetrated-
