spondent Associated Press) Wheth
er tho German food supply la su
cleat to last for another year of war
Is being debated la Qermaa aewsaa-
pers with signs of appreheastoa.
"Calculations' warrant the belief
that we can hold out, provided, the
most stringent measures are taken to
regulate clandestine traMc la food,"
says the Cologne Volkseltund. Its
estimate la based oa, figures showing
the German food aupply collected by
Stegerwald, a member of the Pre;
slan diet. , ' 9
"Nevertheless," adds the paper,
"Stegerwald'a figures show that' we
have a Siegfried position also' at
home." The slgalScaaW of this files
la the fact that the Siegfried poskloa
os) the western front went dowa b
for Allied attacks, , j
Aiier enaeavorisw to noisier up
the waning confidence of the Ger
mans ,the Volksseltuag says: i
"MeatUtrlbutlea muat'be further
curtailed. Cattle, ) havia , decreased
8.000,000 head, compared with last
year, while the number of plga has
been very seriously reduced. .Meat
less days mist be maintained and
consumption of. game aad poultry
placed under muchjmore severe con
trol. Measures must v be devised,
whereby all classes will.be .treated
alike, aad clandestine: slaughter be
ruthlessly suppressed.
"The Ukralae remalas a doubtful
