Severe Shortage Os Food In Rhineland Supplies Os Food Virtually Vanished 15th U.S.Army Hdq., Germany, May 28— (UP) —Seven million Germans in tile Rhineland face food shortage bordering on starvation unless the crop situation gets very much better before July. Military agricultural experts said today that food supplies and stocks virtually have vanished because of the necessity of feeding thousands of liberated slave laborers and displaced persons. They classed the collection, distribution and provision of the minimum food required for civilians as the first critical problem in occupied Germany. Much of tlie Rhineland is being tilled right now, but the spring planting was late because of the war. There also is a shortage of fertilizer, which probably will mean below-average production. To prevent mass starvation and possible food riots, the food office of the Rhine province military district has established food rationing. Starting today every German will lie allowed a maximum of 1,150 calories daily — about one-third tlie average diet of American soldiers, or onefourth that of American civilians. Heavy laborers will get a maximum of 2,800 calories. Under the new rations, a German's daily menu might include 8 ounces of biscuit or flour, 1% ounces of fisli or meat, one ounce of soup or vegetables, A, ounce of fat and 14 ounce of sugar. That won t be the diet, but that is a sample of 1,150 calories worth. Allied authorities have taken other steps. Hundreds of German prisoners have been freed to go back to work on the land. The j military government restrictions on the normal movement and transport of food have been ended. Hundreds of school-age children have been recruited to help farmers pick crops and fight a potato bug menace now threatening the crops. i It also was disclosed that 47,000,900 pounds of seed potatoes have been distributed to all Rhine province areas in another move to head off the threatened famine.
