FOODPRODUCTION
ALARMS TEUTONS
Demand Made That Gov
ernment Give Up Farm
Products Control
BERLIN, Dec. 20.—Production of
food in Germany has decreased to!
such an extent as to alarm the Na
tional Commission of German Agri- '
culture which now demands that gov
ernment control of farm products be
abolished except in the case of wheat, i
The commission refuts a statement ■
by the National Economic Ministry
that the German people are in no
danger of shortage of food and de
dares that Germany “will suffer an
unlimited collapse’* unless the prob-,
fem is attacked with open eyes.
“The power of production has ;
sunk so much and the beef supply is I
so low that only speedy reconstruc
tion can come an/where near safe
guarding Germany s food supplies, i
asserts the National Commission. It
states that the wheat shortage in the
coming year will amoun 1 - to 2,500,000
tons The potato b/ead rations can- ,
not be maintaiM® during the com
ir.g winter 4ft says, for the potato <
crop has been falsely estimated. ,
Thf commission demands that con- J
tryftof meat, sugar and barley be
/ abolished and a premium be offered
for production of potatoes.

In a season of velvet and duvetyn
dresses with severe necklines which
provide no softening transition be
tween the skin and the harsh line of
the dark material, it is refreshing to
find a frock whose chief point of in
terest is an exquisitely dainty organ
die underblouse which shows about
three inches above the velvet bodice
and emerges from the sleeves in de
mure, puffy little sleeves gathered
snugly round the wrist.
A Russian peasant dress was the
basis of this design, which still fur
ther betrays its Slavic origin in the
brilliant red, black and yellow em
broidery which adnrns the organdie
bodice. The velvet is of a rich mid
night blue, and fancy silk braid in
the same color runs down each side
, I and around the back of the skirt, re
! i lieving its plainness. The bodice is
‘ slashed on the shoulders where it is
cunningly held together with ribbon
. bows.
Serge would make up effectively
1 in this mode] if a practical dress for
1 every May service is desired. The.
■ underblouse might then be made of
tan Georgette, embroidered in blue
i and red.
Subsidy Planned For
British Home Building
LONDON, Dec. 20.—(8y Asso
! eiaied Pre c s.— The British govern
i ment proposes to subsidize the erec-
I ticn of necessary homes "fcr the peo-•
; pie and to pre' ent the building ':f,
1 Tat are characterized as “luxury
i houses.” The plan has been pro
-1 posed to the House of Comomns by
Dr. Christopher Addison, minister of
’ health. Dr. Addison proposed that a
' subsidy of $750 should he offered for
! each house built within a specified
' time.
I Austen Chamberlain, chancellor of
the exchequer, announced that the
i treasury had agreed to lend to local
authorities of small communities
money for building purposes, but
that the authorities of larger com
i munities would have to supply their
' own resources.
j Two difficulties, he said, confront-
I ed the government, that of obtaining
i money and labor and he advised that
j public opinion be aroused to obtain
both.

irritable most of the time. adv
