BUDAPEST IS
HUNGRY CITY
Only Light Ration of Beef,
Mutton or Veal on
Meat Days
' Budapest, Sept. 26—This probably
Is now the hungriest of the great
cities of Eurppe. From France
eastward there is a gradual tight
ening of the belt and an increasing
absence of nutritious food until here
there is a dearth of fats of any
kind.
On meat days one light ration of
beef, mutton or veal of poor quality
is to be had at the mid-day meal
in the largest restaurants that re- ;
main open, but on such days supper
is meager. At night at the largest |
and most fashionable hotel in the j
city, supper consists of a green pep
per stuffed with rice and tomatoes,
boiled spinach and a fragment of
poor pastry.
The Rumanian occupation made
harder an already serious situation.
The Rumanians scour the surround
ing country for supplies. Interrup
tion of railway traffic, due to the
coal shortage, is another factor. As
this is written Hungary is passing
through the governmental crisis that
followed the resignation of Arch
duke Joseph as Chief of State, and
this, with its uncertainty as to fu
ture developments, heightens the
general depression of this once gay
est of cities.
Windows Shuttered
The magnificent streets present
blocks of great shops with shuttered
windows. Only here and there is a
store open and usually its poorly
filled windows represent about its
stock in trade and at exorbitant
prices despite the low value of the
kronen. Few of the restaurants and
cafes that once made Budapest fa
mous for food and music and splen
didly dressed people are open, and
idle and poorly dressed crowds fill
the popular streets.
The factories are closed for lack
of coal and raw materials. More
than 200,000 persons have flocked to
the city from the surrounding re
gions. The streets are filled with
soldiery, both Hungarian and Ru
manian, and detachments of the lat
ter march continuously through the
city.
One custom still survives in spite
of want and general dreariness of
the city. That is the afternoon
promenade on the splendid terrace
overlooking the Danube, but the
poorly dressed throng is a ghost of
old Budapest and there is a strik
ing apathy and sadness on the faces
of the promenaders.
From its terraced height across
the Danube the magnificent palace
looks down on its changed city, its
spacious apartments now occupied by
government officials. In one splen
did suite of rose brocaded satin and
gilt the Inter-Allied Military Mis
sion sits, and General llandholz, the
American member writes on a rose
wood desk that once was used by
Emperor Franz Joseph.
Only Seven Graves of
150 U. S. Airmen
Missing in France
Paris, Sept. 26.—0f the 160 Amer- I
ican aviators who met death in
aerial combats, there are only seven
whose graves have not been located.
The search for the burial places of
the heroes of the air is being con
ducted by an army officer and a
representative of the American Red
Cross and thousands of kilometers
have been covered in France and i
Germany.
The 140 graves have been decorated
according to the rules in force in !
the American Expeditionary Force
and photographs have been sent to
the relatives of the dead. The
seven remaining graves are being
sought with particular care.
Former Employe of
Penn-Harris Hotel
Now in Des Moines
J. Elmer Davidson, former maitro
d'hotel at the Penn-Harris. is now
steward of the Hotel Des Moines at
Des Moines, lowa. Mr. Davidson has
a warm feeling for Harrisburg and
frequently writes of his short resi
dence here during the opening period
of the Penn-Harris. The hotel at
Des Moines is somewhat larger than
the new Harrisburg hotel.
Newspapers From Straw of
Wheat Probable in Future
Chicago, Sept. 26.—The world, in
a few years, may have to fa|l back
for its supply of news-print paper
upon the straw of wheat and other
grains which is now largely wasted,
if the rapid destruction of Canadian
pulpwood fofests continues.
This was the statement of C.
Price-Green, of Toronto, industrial
commissioner of the Canadian Na
tional Railways, at the fifth annual
exposition of Chemical Industries
here. Mr. Price-Green addressed the
convention on "Canadian Fields for
Industrial Development."
"The newspapers of Chicago
alone," said Mr. Price-Green, "con
sume daily more than 5,000 spruce
trees of average size One edition
of Chicago's largest newspaper (The
Tribune) requires the spruce of 30
acres of forest"
Roosevelt Movie to Aid
New Member Campaign
New York, Sept. 26. W. Boyce
Thompson, president of the Roose
velt Memorial Association, an
nounced to-day that a two-reel mov
ing picture, entitled "Through the
Roosevelt Country with Roosevelt's
Friends," has been produced by that
organization and is ready to be
shown in theaters throughout the
country. This film has been made
under the direction of Hermann
Hagedorn, a member of the execu
tive committee. It is the belief of
the officers of the Roosevelt Me
morial Association that this moving
picture feature will be a valuable
adjunct of the campaign which is
to be conducted by that organiza
tion in the week of October 20-27
for the purpose of obtaining mem
bers.
