NEWSPAPER FOR GERMANS

The press blurb about the weekly
paper, however, says that it conforms "to

the weekly is about the only publication in
the world meeting the ideal. At best, other
newspapers seek to do so.

The company, harvesting crops
from 100000 acres of Lake Okee-

the lake to prevent floods when
rains are heavy. uses il for irri-
cation during dry spells. and gets
nearly double the cane yield aver

The United States Sugar Cor

these are processed in their own

Tragic Picture Of
Hollands Condition

i JACKSONVILLE, July %. -
(FNS) A tragic picture of condi-
tions in Holland, where infant
mortality is at such high levels
that there are only a few children
of less than a year old left alive,
is painted in "a report just received
here by Mrs. Finley Tucker, chair
man of the local committee for
American Relief for Holland, an
agency supported by the National
War Fund. - i3|s sh3
In most instances, Mrs. Tucker
learned, new born babies only
live about six weeks and then
succumb to starvation because of
the long continued acute food
shortage during Nazi occupation.
American Relief for Holland is
shipping supplies into the strick-
en- area as rapidly as possible
since the German surrender and
while the situation shows some
Improvement, the task is gigantic
and more funds than ever will be
needed to meet the situation. Con-
tributions to the Naional War
Fund support this work, Mrs.
Tucker points out.

But not SO with the British. They hold
their election teday and wait three weeks
before counting the ballots. And that wait
in no way apparently affects the stolidity
of the British people. because they know
how to wait as we'll as to carry on under

We find it hard also to understand
their attitude in defeating Churchill in the

the most outstanding in British politics.
Churchill, with his logged determine

at high pitch in the darkest days of the
European war and brought them through
that war successfully. AS we see it at first
