a condition described by those IN a
position TO know as bordering on fam
inc.
This food shortage is adding VERY
greatly To- the seriousness Of the In
fluen2a epidemic and many deaths are
attributed not so much 20 the disease
itself as to h combinations brought
about by lack OF food.
Shipments of rice from Sew or
leans aud other cur ports which are
now from four to six weeks uverdnie
probably viii bring some relief but IN
the meantime the island authorities
anticipate much suffering and hard
ship hat at present they seem pow
erless TO prevent.
According to Albert T.. Lee. federal
God commissioner and chairman OF
the porto Rico food commission. the
question now Is wholly one OF trans
p~or,ation and the commission has con
sidered the local situation 80 serious
that IL has urged upon the United
states shipping board the necessity OF
Immediate relief. Help has been
promised by the shipping board but
10 far the local food commission mas
not been advised OF the sailing OF any
ships bringing rice.
For the first time In "a year n a
half the food commission has no re-
serve stock OF rice ON hand, all OF It's
stock having been released as needed
In anticipation OF the arrival Of the
new crop. In order to provide the
Red Cross with rice needed for the
relief of earthquake sufferers the com .
mission was forced To pick up small
lots of rice here and there,
Many sugar centrals In the island
employing large quantities OF labor
have been securing the island for rice
at any price In order 10 provide food
for the sick on their plantations. In
many instances they have not been
rble to buy "a single bag.
Four ships, each one of which was
20 have brought rice to Porto Rico,
have been delayed in sailing by
strikes or other causes OF else have
been rushed Ia Europe with food sup
plies which are badly needed there.
whether other ships 20 take their
place will he directed here promptly
Is a question that rs giving many pco-
pie familiar with the food situation
In the island very serious concern
The average consumption OF rice IN
the island Is In the neighborhood of
10000 bags per month. Not 10 eN-
ceed $4,000 bags Of new crop rice have
