declared is 'the most dangerous man

GERMAN OFFICERS
IN HARD STRAITS
CLAIM CANNOT LIVE ON PRES
ENT SALARIES AND ARE RUN
MING DEEP IN DEBT.

BERLIN (By A. P.)-The high
cost Of living, coupled with the deteri-
oration Of the mark and low salaries,
has hit German government employ
es such a blow that number of them
say frankly the only way in which
i they can exist is ''to go deeper into
debt every day" Some of them have
borrowed money on their salaries for
mbnths ahead, and must borrow
more.
One government official, on a sal
ary of 1000 marks month, which
before the war was a reasonable
wage, said he had been unable to buy
any clothes for four years, that his
garments now were threadbare, his
shoes worn out, and he had contracted
debts with his grocer which he could
not pay.
"There is nothing to do but keep on
going deeper and deeper into debt, )"
he said. "I do not known where it
will end, nor what will become of me.
I earn 1000 marks month; suit of
clothes costs me 5000, pair of shoes
500, a good meal nearly 1OO-cigars,
cigarettes, wines-they are out of the
question"
Another official said he had set
aside one-fifth of his salary for to-
bacco, but this only permitted him
few cigarettes daily.
Il feel justified in spending this
money for tobacco because smoking
keeps the appetite down." he de-
clared.
1t is not uncommon for men who
were once wealthy or held high-sal-
aried positions to ask foreign ac-
quaintances to remember them in
case they have an old suit of clothes
or pair of shoes "to throw away"
