Black Market
NEWS OF SOCIETY
(All society items should be reported to The Bulletin not later
than 10 ajn. on the days of publication, Tuesdays, Thursdays and
Saturdays.)
With Belgians
By Henry Tostt Russel
(United Phi Staff Correspondent)
Brussels (IB There are more
'rackets" In Belgium today than
there were In the United States'
during prohibition. There are
shortages oi almost everytmng
except bread and potatoes ... ex
cept in the black market.
m tne nays oi uerman occupa
tion it was considered patriotic to
buy or sell in the black market.-;
Goods that never reached the nor
mal channels of supply could not
be "expropriated" a polite word ,
for "stolen" and sent to Ger-'
many. The black-marketers were
outwitting the invaders then.
But this type of trading became !
a habit, and the people who ran
the black market during German
occupation because they wouldn't
work for the invader and couldn t
get any other type of Job, feel it
is still an "honorable" way to
make a living despite the fact
that it slows down the rebuilding
of the country.
Plenty At a Price
Consequently, the shortages are
acute. People are still waiting for
their last summer's ration of coal.
and butter rations are two months
or more late. Milk is for infants
and aged only.
But you can buy coal on the
black market If you can pay 3,500
to 7,000 Belgian francs per ton.
There's plenty of butter at 500
francs per kilogram (about 2
pounds).
I paid 1,500 francs for a four
course supper the other night for
three people.
People think nothing of buying
everything they hed in the black
market. And life today in Belgium
is full of other material Worries
that seem to overshadow every
other consideration.
Transport is virtually non-exlst-
! ent except by streetcar. There are
50 taxis in Brussels, and most ot
them run on coal gas. I hired one
recently for three hours and it
cost 800 francs. That's why every
one crowds on streetcars and you
see them lurching past with odd
arms and legs dangling out of the
mass of people packed in like sar
dines. Nation's Spirit Hurt Most
Newspapers print four times
weekly on both sides of a single
sheet. Lists of death and jail sent
ences for collaborators are an un
failing feature. Almost every
thing the government does is
criticized by right or left, If hot
by both.
Political feeling In the press is
strong. There Is considerable bit
terness against the alleged failure
of the , government to eliminate
the black market and the govern
ment's financial measures have
caused considerable dissatisfac
tionsome claiming the plan to
tax war profits went in the wrong
direction and others claiming it
didn't go far enough.
But physically the Belgians
have not lost nearly as much as
other battle-scarred liberated ter-
; ritories. Their chief loss has been
i in the spirit of the people, disinte
grated by the humiliations and
hardships of years of enemy oc
cupation. The was has left a
moral mark on the population
mark on the population which
may be harder to erase than
devastation of their dwellings or
the memory of physical hard-
snips.
