FAILURE TO GET U. S.
JOB BRINGS SUICIDE

WASHINGTON, Aug. 5. (UP).
-Despondency over failure to Sc
cure a government position was
blamed today for the eight-story
death leap of Inez Babcock, 27,
of Cisseton, S. D.
Miss Babcoek came to Washing
ton 10 days ago, and had taken
an apartment with three other
girls, all government workers. She
failed to get an appointment, and
the disappointment resulted in her
illness, her roommates said.
Late yesterday, she climbed to
the top of the apartment building,
waved goodbye to Alice Haney,
who was watching from a window
below, and leaped to the pavement
of a courtyard. The girls mother
lives with Boyd Freeborn, a rela-
tive, in Cisseton.

NEW YORK, Aug. 5.-(UP)-
A new teapot tempest similar to
that created when New York Com
muniSts tore the Nazi swastlka
from the German liner Bremen ap-
peared last night as result of the
action of an American magazine
in printing a derogatory cartoon
of his imperial japanese Majesty
Hirohito.
These developments marked the
newest Japanese-American contro-
versy:
l. The Japanese government
barred from sale in the empire all
copies of the August issue of Van
ity Fair because it reprinted Il
caricature of small be-spectacled
Emperor Hirohito depicting him
as hauling off huge scroll labeled
"Japan's Emperor Gets the Nobel
Peace Prize"
2. Japanese Ambassador Hirosi
Saito left his summer home in
New Canaan, Conn.,, yesterday for
Washington to protest formally 60
the department of state against
the "insult" to his ruler. His pro-
test will follow informal represen-
tations made by his counselor,
Seijiro Yoshizawa, in Washington
Saturday.
3. Frank Crowinshield, editor of
Vanity Fair, promised a statement
this week explaining that the carl
cature was reprinted merely as an
interesting bit of work and was
not intended as insult to the peo-
pie of Japan or their ruler.
4. William Chopper, artist for a
Communist newspaper, who drew
the Objectionable caricature, said
he will continue his campaign
against Japanese Imperialism
and will cartoon the emperor
whenever occasion arises.
5. Japanese said Choppers carl
cature indirectly was inspired by
Russian Communists who are en-
couraging hatred of Japan in the
United States with a view to caus-
ing Japanese-American friction
which might force Japan to allevi-

tend to take . sonber view of the
situation.
Undoubtedly there Is q widespread
fear among sections Of these popula-
tions of general food shortage. In
the capital, for example, voluntary
rationing by food shops of butter and
pork and queues Of waiting customers
before these shops have come as
unsavory reminders of wartime and
the subsequent imitation period.
In Berlin, as in other cities, per-
sons unable to get the food are faced
abruptly with the fact that they
are paying for an ardent nation
alism to which they may or may
not have given active support. Again,
1t should be stated that the re-
sultant unrest should not be over
estimated. Yet 1t cannot be gainsaid
that there is much grumbling. Sue
cessiye speakers, like Paul Joseph
GoebbelS and other Nazi leaders who
have talked on the food situation,
and frequent reassuring articles in
the press provide sufficient evidence
that the government Is taking the
situation seriously. AS indicated
above, there Is no prospect of a gen.
eral improvement in the near future.

SHORTAGE Of FOOD.

Citizens Begin to Realize
They Are Paying for
NationaIiSm.
Gpecial Dispatch to The Star.

6peClhl OlSphtCN W 1Ac CeaA'
BERLIN, October 16.-Above every
thing else the urban population Of
Germany is concentrating its atten-
ton these days on the domestic food
situation, which Is giving rise to anxi-
ETY.. It should be said at the outset
that there Is now absolute food short
age In certain foodStuffS, some Of
which played an important role in the
German diet. The most serious Is the
deficiency in fat, including lard, mar
garine and butter. The other food
stuffs involved are pork and certain
other meats, together with fish and
dried fruits, and certain vegetables
and eggs.
The present stringency results In
part from the poor domestic crops of
last year. in part from the govern
ment policy Of eoonomizing on food
stuffs and imports with q view OF en-
ploying the meager supply of exchange
and for purchase abroad of raw ma
terials, and in part from the govern
ment program of making the Reich
as nearly as possible self sufficient in
foodstuffs. The two last-named causes,
Of course, are fundamental.
There is reason to believe that until
the time when Germany Is In a posi-
tion to increase materially her ex-
port trade and thus provide means
for more ample imports, deficiencies
In certain categories of foodstuffs will
persist In more or less acute form.
Thus 1t would appear that consider
able portion of the German popula-
ton, notably industrial workers and
the lower categories of the white
collar class, must become resigned to
the acceptance of a lower standard
Of living for an indefinite period
not necessarily smaller in the bulk of
food, but food Of somewhat inferior
quality and restricted in variety
Standard Of Living.
II the national self -sufflciency pro-
gram Is to be adhered to, it Is possible
that the standard Of living will not
be restored to its previous level, even
II and when the export situation Is
Evening star., 1935-10-18

improved. Additional factors tending
to support this view are the steady
increase In the German population
and the position Of domestic agri-
culture at the production level, which,
according to experts, cannot be sub
stantially raised in the near future.
It should be added that, although
there Is a shortage In certain de
nciency foodstuffs," notably fat, 1t
may become more severe this coming
Winter than 1t Is today. There Is
no definite evidence that the situa-
ton will deteriorate progressively.
Thus there is no reason to believe
that, barring unforeseen develop
ments, the shortage will be appre-
ciably more acute In the Winter Of
1936-37 than it will be during the
coming Winter months. This view at
least Is expressed by unbiased ex-
perts here.
The political implication of the ex-
isting food situation should not be
overestimated, but it cannot be ig-
nored. Not being in a position to
judge for themselves the actual state
of affairs and distrusting off1cial re-
assurances, the populations Of the
large cities, including Berlin, wherein
deficiencies have been most evident,
Evening star., 1935-10-18

fore 1t becomes less. The deficiency
is especially serious in the case Of LARD
and margarine.
An example Of how the List OF
deficient foodstuf1s may be expected
to vary Is to be had in the forecast
for pork and beef. The existing
shortage Of feed and the increased
demand for beef, with the latter a
result Of the pork shortage, are ex-
pected to combine to cause an in
creasing slaughter of horned cattle
In the near future.
Evening star., 1935-10-18

which they may remedy In part the
deficiencies In specific categories Of
foodstuffs, or ct least prevent the
shortages from becoming greater ma
terially.
In view Of these measures, the
pork supply may improve somewhat
in contrast to that Of fats. Though
it is stated steps are being taken for
importation to better the situation
with respect to butter. there is evi-
dence that the shortage Of fats in
general will become more acute be-
