Hunger in East Germany

There is every reason to believe that the
Kremlin has won additional hatred for itself
in rebellious East Germany as a. result of
Foreign Minister Molotov's surly rejection of
President EiSenhower's offer to send food there
to feed the hungry. The hungry have reacted
bitterly, and no amount of Soviet propaganda
is likely to placate them-not while their
stomachs are empty and they know that their
Communist overlords, with typical callousness
and mendacity, have refused to let them have
help from America and the free world at large.
Echoed by the puppet East German Red
regime of Premier" Otto Grotewohl, the Krem-
lin-through Mr.. Molotov-has turned down
the Presidents proposal as an insult" and a
provocative propaganda maneuver." Further,
it has denied that food shortage exists in the
Soviet zone, and it has said that Russian help
would be quickly forthcoming if there were
such a problem. But the people directly in
volved, the people who have been adversely
affected by the rejection have made clear that
they look at the situation in quite different
light: They are hungry, and they have no faith
in receiving aid from their oppressive occupiers,
and they view the American offer as the kind
of insult" and propaganda maneuver" they
Sorely need to make life tolerable.
Certainly, despite the Iron Curtain there
is abundant evidence that hunger is widespread
in East Germany. dramatic indication of
that can be found in the way thousands of
residents have flocked from the Red sector of
Berlin to take advantage of special cut-rate
food sales staged for them in the American
sector. Their bitter comments leave little room
for doubt that there is drastic belt-tghtening
throughout the Soviet zone and that rejection
of the Eisenhower proposal has further inflamed
anti-Communist feelings. Indeed, there ap-
pear to be so many empty stomachs and so
much anger that even Grotewohl himself, giving
the lie to his own and Molotov's earlier denials,
has now been forced to issue desperate appeal
to the entire East German population to join
in an all-out effort to overcome harvesting
deficiencies"
In such a situation, it is good that the
Presidents offer still stands and that the food
will be sent to West Germany and held in
readiness there for distribution to the needy
in the Soviet zone. This procedure undeniably
adds up to kind of propaganda weapon that
tends to put the Communists in an embarrassing
position, but that aspect of it is only incidental
to its basic humanitarian purpose. The hungry
should be allowed to have the proffered aid,
and by continuing to hold it out to them we
may yet be able to persuade the Kremlin to
reconsider and reverse. the Molotov rejection.

After the Bottle

The rest of the week was taken
up with the sort of scattered
cleanup firing that inevitably fol-
lows big artillery duel.
Senator Jenner, who announced
he would broaden the probe to
include some of Whites associates,
made public letters written by
former Treasury Secretary John
Snyder when and after Harold
CHASER quit the Treasury to go to
private business. This was done
after Mr. Snyder explained that
Jenner committee subpoena had
reached him too late to permit a
Wednesday appearance.
Senator Jenner said he had ex-
pected to ask Mr.. Snyder to ex-
plain his letters, but that they
were so important they would be
put into the record anyway. One
Of them, it developed, was already
in the record-on Page 100 of the

partments,' which were held April
ID and June of this year.

studies, Maurice Halperin, another
