Germany Faces Famine

the point OF starvation, II goes with
out saying that the United States
will find a way to extend assistance.
At this point It should be observ-
ed that the United States, for all
its generosity, is practical in dis
tributing charity. It would not turn
wheat over to the soviet in Rus
sia for distribution to the people.
It's charitable contributions in the
Near East will be carefully distrib-
uted by American agents. If Ger
many should become famine-striok-
en-, disturbed political conditions
would surely accompany the public
distress. The government might
isappear-indeed It is on the point
of anarchy now. The United States
would not send over millions OF
tons OF food to be captured by prof
iteers and thieves. The Germans
would be required to permit the es-
tablishment of a distributing organ
ization in American hands, similar
to the agencies which relieved ooou-
pied areas during the war.
Germany. in short, faces imminent
bankruptcy. and a receivership. The
Allies are primarily concerned in
the political and financial stabiliza-
tion OF Germany. II they can not
or wifi not agree upon a policy, or
II having agreed upon a policy they
can not or will not compel Germany
to cooperate with them IN exeout-
ing It, then Germany must collapse
in spite of the artificial prosperity
that has enriched some individuals
at the expense of others. over 90
900, 900 individuals in Germany win
be without food and the country
will not be able to produce food for
them. They must then emigrate
starve to death. or accept the min
istrations OF outsiders who will take
control OF their affairs for the time
being. But the United States would
always avoid interference in the po-
litical affairs OF Germany, even while
aid under American con
troll.

RENO RETAINS TITLE.
Indianapolis News.

Indianapolis News.
Reno remains the capital of the
divorce colony OF America, following
the refusal OF Nevada voters to
change the States laws. A proposal,
submitted TO referendum, that the
residence requirement OF plaintiffs
be heightened from six months to
one year was defeated by $500
votes. Another proposal, which in
effect ratihes the present statutes
and prohibits their alteration under
constitutional amendment for a peri
cd OF at least three years, was car
ried by about s,2OO votes.
Reno has been very convenient
for those who wished hasty divorces.
In other States the residence re-
quirements were from one 10 two
