Ago.

With the American Army in France,
Jan. limited State aviators have
flown over the German battle lines and
dropped bombs in conjunction with
British and French pilots. The flight
of the Americans virtually was a re-
prisal for the killing of two American
woodcutters during O. German bombing

Through the courtesy Of the British
and French flying authorities, the
American aviators also have taken part
in observation and Photographic work.

FOOD SITUATION IN
ALLIED NATIONS BAD.
Lord Rhondda, OF Great Britain,
Regards Situation as Most
Critical

Washington Jan. 1.-THE foodsitua-
ton in the allied countries of Europe is
grayer than it has been at any time
since the beginning of the war and is
causing American government officials
deep concern. Official reports show
food shortage in England, France and
Italy.
The fact that conditions in Germany
and Austria are far worse offers the
only grounds for optimism in viewing
the situation.
In England and France the situation
is described as critical in a cablegram
to the food administration from Lord
Rhondda the British food controller,
which concluded with these words:
ST view the situation with grave anx-
iety"
Yesterday a cablegram from the
French government said the wheat crop
had been requisitioned and that the
bread ration would be cut to allow only
seven ounces of bread daily to all per-
sons except the very poor and those do
ing hard manual labor. In Italy con-
dttions are not as good, perhaps as in
England or France
