the heat and aridity are excessive

 But" continued Baron Eichor, "it is no longer simple political or eco- homie question. The economic and political results of the starvation of Austria have been sufficiently dwelt upon Today it is a humanitarian question. Austria, living on half ra- tions, can exist until the end of Jan uary.
