"Not only Walnut street realty values
but Chestnut street from K,th to ISth

NHW YOntC, Dec. .-Through the
medium of a Journal In the Hrallle system
of raised letters for the blind, which
escaped the vlllgnnt eye of the censor,
what Is probahlv the most authoritative
article on Oerninnv's lack of food has
reached this country. It reveals that
every man, woman and child In Oermnnv
Is living on slender intlons. doled out bv
weight, determined on after a conference
of chemists, scientists nnd plijBlelnns In
Uerllu.
The Journal which brings the Informn
ilno Is Die Neito 55clt, or The New Time,
n socialist publication for the blind, Issued
In llerlln. It was received a week ago
bv Miss Helen Keller. Miss Keller, who Is
a socialist, made nn address teccntlv
against preparedness Much of the In
formation on which she hnsed her objec
tions to preparedness, she said, came from
the Journals for the blind which she re
ceives fiom Tails, London, Hcrlln and
Vienna.
According to Die Nou? Belt,, experi
ments were conducted to discover how
much food wns necessary to keep n person
alive when not nctlvc and how much mote
wns needed to ennblc a worker to perform
bis duties without suffering from mal
nutiltlon. An Inventory of the food on hnnd and
the fooil possibilities was taken, and an
Imperial edict wns Issutd Instiuctlng the
people whnt diet thov were to maintain,
tlueatenlng Imprisonment for violation of
nny of the regulations of the edict.
Committees hnvo been appointed In tho
provinces nnd the cities nnd they hnv
taken over all food supplies, which aro
being doled out according to the neces
sities of tho people. All nre supplied, with
tickets which entitle them to n certain
intln dally, the ratio being determined 011
by the slo of tho family.
The chief foods In Oermany. according
to Die Ncue Zelt, consist of potntoes nnd
oatmeal and the people arc permitted
two meals dally. Krult soup Is also dis
tributed, and occasionally meat. Meat,
however, Is scarce, and Is entirely under
government control. When meat Is given
out It must bo boiled. No other way of
preparing It Is permitted, under threat
of punishment. No fats nre allowed to
stay on the meats. They nre carefully
removed at tho municipal stations and
are used In tho preparation of suets and
soups.
