Grand Old Man’ 6f G. 0. P. To Stop Counting Mile-Stones.

Former U. S. Senator James E. Watson’s 75th birthday almost cost him his breakfast today. Due to greetings from old friends and a little difficulty in getting more syrup for his waffles, he almost had to abandon his meal. The grand old man of G. O.

I sat in the Senate and voted to go to war the last time and if we had placed on the statute books then a proposed law to keep ships out of belligerent territory, we should not have been forced in the war.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2 (U. P).— Domestic political repercussions

from the European war have eclipsed the Presidential aspirations of Vice President John N. Garner, Jerry Sadler, Texas Railroad Commissioner, said today. “Garner, you might say, is the first American casualty of the European war,” Mr. Sadler said. “I'm not backing Garner for President

ALLIES PROTECT MEN, KEEN SAYS

Minimum War Casualties Is Aim, U. P. Official From Paris Declares.

NEW YORK, Nov. 2 (U. P)— France and Great Britain are determined to prosecute the war against Germany with a minimum loss of manpower on the Western Pront, Ed L. Keen, European vice president of the United Press, said today upon his return from Paris. “The people of France have great

faith in their Maginot Line,” Mr. Keen said. “They believe that the deep fortifications along the German border, equipped as they are with all manner of defense machinery, will almost eliminate open field encounters and heavy casualties such as marked the World War.” Keen, the dean of American correspondents in Europe, has been in charge of European staff of the United Press since 1911. He organ-

CANDIDATE’S DEATH PROBED IN LOUISIANA

BATON ROUGE, La. Nov. 2 (U. P.) —An investigation was started today into the death of Robert R. Rochester, 55-year-old gubernatorial candidate. District Attorney Dewey J. Sanchez announced he would confer with Bolivar E. Kemp Jr. district attorney of the 21st judicial district, to decide who had jurisdiction in the matter. Sanchez did not disclose why he believed an investigation necessary. Dr. L. H. Stander said in a tentative report that Rochester, one of six men seeking to become Governor in the January 16 primary, died on Tuesday night of “possible drug poisoning and malnutrition (pellagra).”

NAZIS TO FEEL VITAMIN PINCH, "EXPERTS AGREE

With Food Coming From Poland and Russia.

Following is the fourth of several dispatches on conditions in Germany after two months of war.

By DANA A. SCHMIDT United Press Staff Correspondent

BERLIN, Nov. 2.—Next to the war Germans these days talk most about food—and the lack of food. It was the lack of food, Nazis say, which cost Germany the victory in 1918. The German Government ordered food rationing even before hostilities

started, and Nazis say a system has been perfected under which the populace can go on eating indefinitely at the present rate with pros pects of dietary improvement as Po-

land is exploited and supplies roll}

in from Russia and the Balkans. Nazis say “Germany cannot be starved out.”

Look East for Supplies

Neutral experts agree that if the present ration card standard can be maintained it will be. adequate. It is, however, believed that as vegetables and fruits grow scarcer during the winter, Germans will feel a vitamin pinch. For the maintenance of the rest of .their food supply, Germans look to conquered Poland, Russia and the Balkans. Responsible German agricultural authorities believe that by intensive cultivation German Poland can double the surplus available to the Reich and produce enough to feed seven million Germans. The arrangement: with Russia to import a million tons of feed and grain will enable Germany to raise 1,900,000 hogs in addition to the more than 23, 500,000 she now has, it was added.

Huge Reserves Piled Up

With present reserves, on the basis of present total annual consumption of 28 million tons of grain, Nazis says that as far as grain is concerned, Germany could survive two or three years of poor harvests without any imports. > Enormous reserves of meat, potatoes, canned goods and other foodstuffs also have been piled up, but figures on them have never been published. ‘But it is not the calory and protein -adequacy of their diet or the tons of reserves that women talk about in queues at the markets. They discuss the fact that since the war there is no real coffee, practically no chocolate or cocoa and no tea to be had, and that you can

buy but only one egg a week for

each member of the family. Use Substitute for Coffee

In place. of coffee Giermans make a brew of roasted barley and chicory which they drink without cream. Sale of cream has been against the law for more than a year, and unskimmed milk is reserved for chil~ dren under 14. The official ration cards provide the following weekly amounts of necessities which are almost doubled for persons doing heavy labor, including munitions workers: Meat and sausage, 1 pound 1.6 ounces; bread, 5 pounds 4.6 ounces; fats, 9.4 ounces, with butter limited to 39 ounces and cheese to 22 ounces; marmalade, 3.2 ounces; sugar, 3 ounces, and certain starchy foods such as rice, oatmeal and noodles, 4 ounces. Other foods, including vegetables and potatoes, are “free,” that is to say, not rationed. But to buy fish or game the housewife must register and get a number at her shop. The rationing system also extends to soap and clothing.
