There is not enough food for both countries and the question as to who will get what provisions there arc has reached a critical stage.

The Germans also were said to be requisitioning cattlo and horses In Poland and Lithuania and to be help ing themselves to timber in these countries. Information also reached the de partment today that the reason for the refusal of the allies diplomats at Volpgda to accept the Bolshevik! in itiation to move to Moscow was that. the sevlet capital already is controll ed by the German armed forces.
