PEOPLE HAVE WASTED FOOD
Specialist Makes Some Interesting
Comments on misunderstanding
Which He Says 10 Widespread.

The birth rate of the former empire
of Austra-Hungary fell 80 per cent
during the war. DIR. Clemens Won Pir-
quet. specialist on diseases of chill
iren, said in discussing results OF the
war from the standpoint of food.
"The poor quality of the food" he
added, "cut the total weight of the
population one-third. 1t is common
to find that the weight of an average
man has reduced from ITO to 120
pounds. 1t Is doubtful II such n per
son will ever fully recover.
"The food OF the wealthy classes
was not nourishing. The quantity
wns sufficient. but 1t was lacking In
quality. The big mistake OF the en-
tire world has been to waste food by
misunderstanding the values.
"How the child population has been
affected is shown by the fact that out
of $4,000 poor boys and girls under
eight yenrs of age applying to the
| clinics in Vienna, who lost an aver
age Of ten pounds In weight. there
were only $500 who were suffering
from malnutrition.
"The ration provided by the food
cards permits the population to get
but one-thlrd of the necessary nutri-
don. Only the rich have bee, able to
buy.
During the war all diseases have
Increased. especially the lung DIS
eases. which resemble n plague. The
peculiarity of the epidemic of grippe
in Vienna has been that 1t has car
ried off young people between twenty
and thirty years Of age. especially
young women about to become moth
ers or those with small children"
