Inundated and ashamed. In that

The demands Of the ranch held
him at home for two or three days,
but Is soon as he could he drove to

flushed angrily. The sight of this

From what I hear you have

brutally.
A pulse of anger beat in her

with me perhaps you had better
get through with it, since you are
leaving so soon," she said with
deceptive quietness.
He know he had gone too far.
The sight of Silcott had started
him of wrong, and it had annoyed
him that her step was still elastic
and her pride still untamed. The
deserted wife of Jesse Lamprey
ought to be humble with him and
eager to propitiate.

Pesky ignored what his former

FOOD SHORTAGE
IN FRANCE seen
Nazis Blame Flight OF
People From Area For
Reduced Yields
BY ROY p. PORTER

PARIS, Sept. 6.-(Via Berlin, de-
laved)-R-A shortage of certain
fooostuffs in occupied France that
2 be met only by strict rationing
this winter was forecast today by
officials of the agricultural Sec
ton of the German military ad-
ministration.
These authorities said German
occupation forces were not sending
large quantities of food from
France into Germany. Wheat flour
is being exported into the Reich
from France, they said, but only
in return for rye flour from which
German army bread is made.
The primary reason f o the
ticials said, was the removal by
the French government of between
s, 1000, 900 and 10, 1000, 900 inhabitants
from departments of n r
France when the war started. In
cluded in this number we're be-
tween 5000, 900 and 1000, 900 agrl-
cultural workers.
This exodus, they pointed out,
had two effects. First, the crops
which would have been planted Ill
early May were forgotten after toe
first German offensive began May
10. Second, crops which, like, the
first cutting Of hay, would have
ben harvested in the same per
iod we're left standing in the Tlelos.
Authoritative German sources
said the crop of sugar beets would
be only between 20 and Is per
cent of normal in the northern re-
gion, where IS per cent Of all the
French sugar bee, growing is con-
%centrated.
The grain harvest in the oc-
cupied zone, they predicted, would
be about 10 per cent of normal, but
they said, it would be sufficient
with existing stocks to carry over
for 1941.
The most urgent rationing needs
nee meat and fat, G a n
souces said. One reason given,
was that cattle herds in northern
France were abandoned by flee
ing population, resulting in con-
siderable losses OF livestock. 2

Civil Liberties Plea
Is Voiced By Biddle

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 10.-R-
Francis Biddle, U. S. solicitor gen.
eral, warned the American Bar as
sociation's annual convention today
against suspending civil liberties
until the emergency is over" be-
cause, I'VE might never get them
back"
1T is imperative to defend our.
selves against the doctrines of
nazism, fascism and communism,
each equally opposed to our way
of thinking and each looking to a
common destructive. purpose.
But VIZ must not adopt as in
struments of defense the very wea-
pons with which we r challenged.
The way to protect democracy is
not by totalitarian methods
Any displacement of orderly con.
stitutional process must, of neces-
sity, be a step away from democ-
racy."
