Help Your Country By Buying a Liberty Bondl

By HE1TEY WOOD (Halted Press staff Correspondent.) WITH THE FRENCH ARMIES. Aug. 26 (By niHil). The cheapest place in l he world i- day to buy meat is precisely where the ordinary mortal might consider it the dearest namely, in the German occupied portion of Alsace and Lorraine. While meat in all other portions of Gertiany is selling at an average of 6 and 7 marks a pound, it is being sold, on the orders of the German government in Alsace and Lorraine at 10 cents a pound. The inhabitants of the two provinces are allowed to have it in any reasonable quantity and the great bulk of them are now buying and eating more meat than before the war. While the motives of the German government in this matter are quite apparent. Swiss investigators who have recently looked into the affair, and w hose reports have just reached France, declared that the ultimate effects upon both the population and the meat supply of the two provinces will be disastrous in the extreme. Under the system the German military authorities purchase from the farmers of Alsace and Lorraine all of their livestock at a very high price, giving them in payment a governmental certificate, which, up to the present time, how.iver. none of the farmers have succeeded in cashing. The animals are then turned over to the local butcher who must kill, sell, and account to the military authorities for every pound. His report must provide for the disposition of all the meat at two marks a pound, which is the prlo? established for those who are wealthy enough to pay it. and which is still several marks below the prevailing prio? In the rest of Germany. To the poor, however, the meat is sold for 30 pfennigs a pound, and the difference between this and the two marks is charged by the German military authorities to the municipal treasury of each locality. In some of the larger villages the municipal authorities are thus obliged to pay several thousand marks every week. Iniiuitious as this is from the standpoint of "high financing." Swiss investlgfttors declared that it by no means the worst aspect of the case. While the less than cost price at which the meat is being sold to the poorer people increases the consumption far above normal. the peasants and farmers, tempted by the high price which is paid them by the military authorities in certificates, are selling all of their livestock at a rate that in a few months must wipe out entirely the entire livestock of the two rrovinc.es, and completely ruin that industry.
