It "was explained that times when planes are damaged ‘or when the weather is bad their high frequency 1eceiving )- ment’ which pick up the air forces own beam becomes useless; In Super=-

PRAGUE, July 4 (U. P.).—Life mn liberated Prague is meager by any standards. The streets and homes are bullet-scarred-and there is no more food than there was during the German occupation. But shiploads of United Nations food are gn the way—the harvest is ahead. The people of Prague are coming back. : Take - Prague's 1945 Slecna—the Czech name for miss. She looks like a girl from anvwhere in the United States as she clacks down the street with her new, beach-style; woodensoled ‘shoes with makeshift canvas tops. Her hair-do is the same as he: American cousin's. Her clothes look good from .a distance:
; No Women's Hats Slecna bought her wooden clogs
by standing in a long line, and she:
got. them without coupons. The
{ Germans had allowed her only one
pair during the occupation: Leather .shoes are available in Prague in the scantiest numbers and then only by.special permit. Like practically all the women around her, Slecna-has no hat. Because no materials are to be had. Her $60 a month salary as a stenographer didn’t permit her to buy- dress material, on the black market, where five months" pay would bring enough goods for a dress. So she wears a dress made of re-styled old cloth. : In that respect, she ‘is more for-
tunate ~than her prospective huss:
band, who can't have. his old suit re-styled and looks a trifle seedy. Slecna was fortunate during the war, too, because. she was assigned to factory work by the Germans instead of being sent, as thousands of other Czech women were, to concentration camps or slave labor
‘centers in Germany.
Bread Rationed Lunches are a tough problem. She
{stands in a crowded restaurant un{til a place opens—up at one of the
tables. Then she orders coffee and cakes from a waiter who still.wears his formal. prewar tails. Slecna pays about 30 cents for |
her. slim luncheon. But her coffee | {1s ersatz—and far the little- cakes
she had to yield precious food coupons. Bread is rationed in Prague. The Czechs still are the same food quotas they when the Nazis were here. They are rationed to two pounds of meat per person for 28 days, in addition to 12 pounds of bread and 30 rolls in the same period. Two Cigarets a Day get about one-eighth of a

They
+pint of milk a day, four pounds of
potatoes a week and an average of two cigarets daily.

cheap and are controlled strictly. For instance, two pounds of barlevcorn cost only 12 cents and salami sells for. 54 cents a pound Beef is 33 cents a pound. Lunch In the best hotel in Prague, where the carpets are deep and luxurious and the sheets are mended and ‘worn. .costs the equivalent of $1.25. But the meal consists .only of a cup of soup, & plate of barleycorn, and “barleycorn cakes for dessert. - There is no wine and only dark brown tasteless bread. Few Hollywood Movies The capital's’ motion picture houses are reopening and Slecna has a choice of many Russian features and-some old Czech films. A few Hollywood offerings also are showing, with seats in the front balcony for 30 eents, : Tonight, Slecna can attend the opera .at the beautiful old Prague opera. house, in the same street where Czech students. were massacred during .the university uprising against the Nazis in 1939. : . Curfew at 11:30 She also can dance: at a restaurant on the island in the Vitava river—but she would have to leave early because Prague -still- has an 11:30 p. m. curfew for civilians, That would: complete her entertainment, except for the radio. Short-wave being returned to the people who owned them before the war. Traveling “anywhere - in Prague entails an uncomfortable 5-cent ride in crowded streetcars. The trolleys usually ‘are jammed with Czechs returning_home from concentys don camps and sight-seeing ‘Russian soldiers. . This is life in liberated Prague. Fhe Germans have gone but their mark. will remain in hunger and discomfort for many months to come.
