Bayarians Filled With Gloom
Facing Serious Food Stres:

London, Aug. 9.-The Chronicles
Zurich correspondent reports that
the Bavaria papers, commenting on
the statements made to Minister
Breittreich upon the food and eco
nomic situation, declare that the
outlook for The near future is very
gloomy.
Thus, the Munchner Neueste
Nachrichten, after citing the official
regarding the food rations and the
proposed meatless weeks, adds that
the accounts and figures will not con-
ceal the actual misery, and show
that the government is not able to
prevent breakdown of the provis-
ioning system in Germany, the harv-
est situation being worse than in
1917, and the hopes based upon
Russia, the Ukraine, and Rumania
not being realizable.
Referring to the statements by
Minister of War Helningrath about
the rumors current throughout the
German Empire tending to destroy
public confidence, the government
journals declare that these stories
are not disseminated by enemies Of
the empire, but are born of the ter
rible situation of the suffering peo-
pie, who seek an explanation of
these endless misfortunes.
