UKRAINIAN SUPPLIES
DISAPPOINT GERMANS
Wnahlngton, March 18
That Germany was disappointed In her
hope for food supplies from Ukralnla Is
shown by a dispatch from Ilerno quoting
a Berlin telegram published by tho
Strasburger Post March 14. Tho tele
gram says the stores of grain are very
limited and that there Is great political
unrest. The dispatch. In part, follows
"After halng announced that the
stock of cereal to be found In Ukralnla
surpassed all expectations, tho German
press Is todav obliged to admit that the
resources which will be at tho disposal
of the Central Powers have been exag
Rented. The Strasahurger Post of hc 14th
publishes a telegram from Berlin which
Is highly Instructive as regards this
"'To estimate what resources we can
draw upon from Ukralnla. It must be
recalled that the country Is In n state
t political unrest. There nr still man)
political disturbances In that country
Mn th part of the population thire Is n
certain mistrust regtrdlng tho troops
which are penetrating Into the country
It goes without saying that calm must
bo re-established before the shipment ot
cereals can bo made on the scale which
vvc had hoped
" To these dldlcultles are added those
of a financial character. There Is no
currency of the Cnrlst rcglmo Now
the Ukalnlans prefer this monev tiy the
new issue of rubles The Ukrainian
peasants are eager for goods nnd arti
cles must be procured which they TV
slro to receive In pajment Tho trans
portation dimcultles are also well known
" 'In what concerns tho cereal stocks,
tho great .states are almost entirely pjl
Hged The peasants alone are In pos
sesion of provisions, and In order to ns.
sure tho futuro they must bo supplied
ith sudlclent seed and ngriculturar
materials. Grain no longer elts on
tho largo estates It can bo affirmed
that there arc really Important supplies

and receive with a critical spirit exag
