four Kilograms a week (S.8 pounds
Now, according to German press re-
ports, the potato ration has been re-
duced to two-and-a-half kilograms
(5.5 pounds.
A bad crop was blamed by the
DNB agency last week for the re-
duction of the potato ration Mean
while, the German radio has called on
farmers to release their crops more
quickly and stop feeding potatoes to
livestock.

The effect of the potato shortage

Chaplain Relates
Attu Incident

One day after Chaplain (First Lieu
tenant Clarence ]. Merriman, of
Shawnee, Okla, had finished conduct
ing a service in a Japanese village,
which had been recently taken by
United States forces on Attu, the
Americans began to search among
the ruins for souvenirs.
There was a big fat boy, about 10,
near me, who also was searching the
rubbish" the chaplain said Sud
denly, enemy machine gun fire began
cutting the tent to pieces. OF course,
we hit the floor against the fortifica-
tons until the fire ceased. No one
was hurt but this boy beside me, and
he was yelling and blowing under the
debris like a mole.
when we had worked our way out
of the tent to the safety of nearby
knoll, this boy discovered I was a
chaplain and showed me where one
of the bullets had gone through his
coat and trousers, ripping his woolens
in placer, and burning a streak across
his back
"Then he looked at me very seri-
ously and said, Chaplain, l was near
er to hell than l have ever been in
my life He promised to get ready
for heaven" Chaplain Merriman con-
cluded.

POTATO SHORTAGE IN
HEPMANX

The nazis, who in the past have
timed their announcements of in
creases in the domestic potato and
meat rations with bad news from the
military fronts, are now showing seri-
Gus concern about the shortage of po-
tatoes. The shortage has not only
cut the potato ration directly, but
threatens to cut the meat ration
through lack of potatoes as fodder for
livestock.
Last October 10, following the Ger
man Harvest Thanksgiving Festival,
the nazis announced glowingly that
potatoes-an all important item in the
German diet = would be rationed at

NAZI NEWSPAPER SCORES
DANISH POLICE

The Copenhagen newspaper Faedre-
landt, organ of the small Danish nazi
party, recently inveighed against the
"inefficiency" of the Danish police in
combating sabotage, as follows.
with reference to the inefficiency
of the sabotage guards against sabo-
teurs, the Danish police are to be
blamed. At a certain Copenhagen
factory, for instance, the police equip
ped sabotage guards with some old
fashioned pistols with only nine car
tridges each, of which half were I'M
disable due to age.
1.-THE guards waited for two weeks
and are still waiting for new supply
of ammunition from the police. If
this is the normal standard of equip
ment of the sabotage guards, it is
understandable that they are letting
themselves be disarmed so willingly"
