MORALE KEPT UP
BY WILD STORIES
Of the Desperate Situation
in France" Says Es-
capped Prisoner

Toulon, France, June 22.-(Corres-
pondence of The Associated Pressl.-
Business, in the peaee-time sense of the
word, virtually is dead in Germany, as.
serts Sergeant Vuillemet who, with sew
eral comrades, recently escaped from a
prisoner Of war camp in Germany and
reached France, and who is on a visit
to his father here.
According to his story, countless stores
in Germany were closed and empty and
everything that is being manufactured
is for war purposes and for the state.
The meat ration, he said, was $50
grams, one half pound, per week, TO
which was added onetenth of a pound
of grease or fat Sugar and coffee were
only dimly remembered luxuries. The
beer was virtually undrinkable, and the
people were living on potatoes and beets.
The bread is said to be indigestible,
Leather had almost entirely disap-
peared, and the soldiers at home and
many civilians wore wooden.soled shoes
almost exclusively. Soldiers home on
furlough were no longer permitted to
spend all their time with their families
or friends, but must work part time in
the factories.
The morale of the civil and military
population, Vuillemet says, is main
tanned by the continual spreading of
stories about an alleged desperate sit
uation in France" and German victories,
which are loudly proclaimed by the ring
ing of bells not yet seized for ammuni-
ton purposes.

DENIED HE KNEW RoDIGER.
Jeremiah o'Leary Says He Never Heard
of Him.

New York, June 22.-Emphatic denial
that he ever knew Carl Rodiger, German
navy officer, indicted with him in an al
legged treason and conspiracy plot, was
made yesterday by jeremiah oLeary
while under cross examination as wit
ness for his brother, John, on trial for
aiding jeremiah to flee from Justice.
0'Leary swore he had never heard of
Rodiger before May 6, last, when he read
of him in the newspapers. He said also
that he was not aware that William H.
Daily, lawyer associated with the
OLearys, was counsel for Rodiger until
the same day DAILY had on that day
called at the home Of the witness father,
where Jeremiah had stopped prior to his
fight. He said he might have spoken to
his brother about Days acting as coun-
sci for the German but was not sure He
had also read, he said, that Rodgers
name was linked with Madame de Vic
torica, the German woman also accused
in the treason and conspiracy case.
