I had suffered with stomach trouble and
colic, and sometimes I would have such

of- children, hundreds of thousands-of
Vienna's .little ones were given nour

America has earned for herself jtho

would be a ray of hope if we could hear
that this great work of humanity could
be 'continued yet for a time. ' I
"A truly terrifying scarcity of food
prevails in Austria, more espe-jlalrjf in
Vienna, wjth its half million of tnbabl
tanta. Vienna has - been fed upon a
basis of ration which medlea! experts
considered absolutely essential as a min
imum of nourishment.
"Even that minimum could not be sup
plied and the present situation may bo
realised when it is said that the amount
less than the minimum, which is more
properly described aa "hunger rations.'
is no longer available for pur people.
"With the utmost efforts we have
succeeded m temporarily maintaining
the bread ration, but we have been com
pelled repeatedly to reduce the rations
of flour for cooking purposes, and since
only a few days' supplies are en hand
in Vienna. another reduction for next
week will be Inevitable.
The meat rations, which for some
lime past have been only one-fifth of a
pound weekly per person, have had to
be suspended entirely for the coming
week, because no-meat is available,
while for the week following there will
be enough for one distribution; and that
ration will go only to part of the popu
lation. BABIES GET LITTLE 3ILK i
"Fresh milk for babies up to 1 year
old, nursing mothers and for the sick,
is obtainable in Vienna only in greatly
reduced quantities. Jn order to meet the
most urgent requirements aa best pos
sible, condensed milk is distributed for
children from 3 to 6 years old, but again
only to the moot modest extent, for even
the supply of this is now nearing its
end. ,
"This terrible situation In Vienna ob
tains since the day that the credits
granted by the allied powers to Austria
were exhausted. With every means in
our power remedial measures have been
sought, but in vain. The timely bring
ing In of our own harvests have been
delayed by lack of coal and gasoline.
"We cannot calculate upoa any great
supply from our own harvests for Vi
enna in the near future. Besides, our
own soil cannot possibly deliver .suffi
cient food for the capital. .
FUTURE WITHOUT HOPE
"Carrying out of agreements closed
with neighboring states, especially Jugo
slavia, for grains is hindered by the
breakdown of transportation and finan
cial difficulties, so that source cannot
deliver any large quantities -to Vienna
in the immediate future.
"Overseas grain has been purchased,
but in view of Austria's finances only
small quantities, which assured supplies
for only one month, could be procured,
and even then the lack of transporta
tion means added difficulties.
"The financial situation is rendered so
desperate through the permanent de
cline of the Austrian 'kroner' (normally

"The causes of this are. chiefly, re

culties and the prevailing political con

perate efforts to obtain coal, in which
we were supported by the allied mis
sions In a most commendable manner.

Even railroad traffic has had to be

are stalled because of lack of the neces

"Recently householders in Vienna re
ceived on the average' only two and
one-tenth pounds of coal per day, and
winter Is coming on. Street car traffic
has been wholly suspended for the en
tire next week. At night the city is
wrapped in darkness, bf course the
greater part of the Industries are at a
standstill for the lack of coal, the re
sult of which is unemployment and the
absence of exports, which explains the
status of our money abroad. Only ex
tensive credit can save ua, How serious
ths situation Is may be gathered from

Geddes Turns Deaf Ear to En

Foreign Cars. -
By Edward Price Bell -
Special Cable to Tb ianmnl and 11m Cbieue
- DaOj Vm.
(Oepyricbt, 1119, by Cbieas San Kern Ca.)
London, England, Oct. 20. "Unit
ed States Trade "War in Europe," is.
a headline In the Daily Mail, refer
ring to the formation in America of
a corporation to extend long term
credits to European buyers of
American goods. Such headlines,
whether so intended or not, might
be interpreted as implying a certain
hostility to American commercial
enterprise In Europe. "
Everyone is familiar with the recent
organized uproar of the British auto
mobile industry against the fancied co
lossal invasion by American cars. Pro
tectionists generally have been importu
nate. Possibly this agitation has produced
some 111 effect upon American opinion.
If so, it should be realized that British
protectionists are not having everything
their own way. Indeed, thus far their
campaign has failed.
GEDDES REFUSES EEQCEST
After beating big drums in the news
papers, the. motor car makers went to
Sir Auckland Geddes and asked for the
practical prohibition of foreign cars for
a couple of yeara Sir Auckland turned
them down flat.. He pointed out that
the trade already enjoyed as regards
commercial vehicles prptectlon amount
ing to 45 per cent in the shape ef freight
costs, loss in exchange, packing and in
surance. In the case of private cars he
showed that British makers had an ad
vantage nearly twice as great or about
R9 per cent.
Sir Auckland's - action caused live
ly satisfaction throughout the country
so far as the consumers were concerned.
The Economist poured ridicule upon
"these prosperous manufacturers whin
ing for state aid," and declared that
while they pretended to want a high
tariff wall for only a few years, they
really wanted it for all time. The
Westminster Gasette was equally drab
tic, remarking that "They went to ,the
board of trade with their pockets stuffed
with - orders and customers on waiting
lists. The Manchester Guardian says:
"Whatever Sir Aucland's views were
before the war. it is interesting to see
I that In the present state of the world's
Industry, he will have nothing to do with
additional taxes on imports. Like every
other sensible man. he knows that if
foreign countries "cannot sell they, can
notj bur." ' x. 'I

made by the British toy makers after
loud, warnings in the newspapers of an
alleged German dumping Invasion. Sir.
Auckland showed that up to 'date the
total value of the toy imports from Ger
many was 7 pounds (35). and that most
of these were brought in by tho govern
ment as specimens. In a word, the vast
majority of British people are not afraid
of (American or German or any - other
enterprise, v They hold that the pur
chasing public stands; to profit-froro
the freest possible play of Industrial and
commercial efforts is the world ' .They
hold that backward, ignorant or lazy
manufacturers should not be allowed
to lay the burden of their 'shortcomings
upon the buyers. The Economist, for
instance, says ; ;
The woes of the defeated Germans
do; not readily excite us to tears. Yet
we cannot wholly refrain from sympathy
with their struggles' against adversity.
We find it in our hearts to wish our
late enemies a happy Issue out of all
their tribulations. 1 Our sympathy has
