POOR DISTRIBUTION
 CAUSES FOOD CRISIS
Collapse ol Currency Main Reason
 for German Food Shortage

Hamburg. Sept. l,-Germany's col
 lspsinE currency and the rssultan
 food shortages are producing sit
 nation wholly unlike that in Russia
 two year sago when the ruble first de
 seended to the point where one dol,
 lar purchased a million ruhles.
 Russians were In the threes Of q
 famine caused by droughts in the
 wheat-raising districts, And their
 railway system was in need of repair
 and utterly disorganized by labor troubles and sabotage,
 Millions of persons were actually starving. Many of them were in flight from the burned-out districts, most of these without the means of buying food even where 1t was available.
 In Germany today the disloeated population is not large. and the fam lilies which have been deported from the Ruhr are for the most part pre- uded with some paper money by the government
 The Russian government. just pre- rous to the decline of the ruble to the million point. had changed its economic policy and discontinued the plan whereby 1t had sought to prove money utterly worthless and useless by promising workmcn actual food and clothing and rent and light and heat in exchange for their work. Consequently Russians suddenly found themselves without food rations and without money as well. as unem- pioyment was widespread.
 The food troubles in Germany are Sargely the result of imperfect distri- button. There is food in Germany, but the economic crisis and the unwil- lingness of dealers to sell it for paper money which descends in value by leaps and bounds are holding the food out of the market. Food riots in cities and threats of confiscation by Communists have discouraged the farmers and market-gardeners from | carrying their products to centers | liable to disorder.
 It is the old problem of the city | against the country. the peasant against the industrial laborer. The farmers are in better condition in Germany than any other class, and they are holding their products for payment in something more stable than paper marks. They are engag- Ing in barter and exchange, as is now in Russia. Dealers are particularly unwilling to let go of any ; products which are imported, as they :annot raise sufficient gold to replace hem. Unless they are paid in gold . ,r it's equivalent wholesalers and re- { ailers alike prefer to hold their. rice { md coffee and other staple food pro- lucts which are imported. But Germany is accustomed to go- ng without real coffee Even the mall vegetable gardens about Berlin learly all raise small patch of rye. (

The chief executive read the As

comment for publication, on the
grounds that the people of Minnesota
had spoken and any statement from
the president would be unseemly.
1t was obvious that the president
was greatly disappointed.
