Food Shortage Looms Serious in Africa Says Missionary

Africa is facing a serious problem In food shortage, according to Tred Hoyt, who recently returned from British East Africa. ... Mr. Hoyt has been engaged In missionary work under the Friends church at Kalmosa. and gave a report on his work in Africa at the meeting of the Friends Board of Foreign Missions Wednesday morning. . "When I left we bad not been able to get flour for a month," Mr. Hoyt said in an Interview, "and there was a great scarcity of salt. Sugar is also very difficult to obtin. In some parts of Africa it is possible to obtain some articles from the natives, but this cannot be done everywhere." Difficulty in shipping the articles from the north is the primary reason for the scarcity in foodstuffs, Mr. Hoyt said. According to the missionary the greater part of German Africa i3 now under the control of the British. At the outbreak of the war, guerilla warfare was common between the Germans' and British in. Africa, but the Germans were unable to make any headway In gaining British territory. The South African troops came up from the south, and aided in the capture first of German Southwest Africa and later of the greater part of German East Afica. The Indian government, according to Mr. Hoyt, is taking an active part in the defense of British possessions in Africa. Efforts were made by the Germans to destroy' railroad communications between British East Africa and the north, but they succeeded in blowing up only a few bridges. Only one railroad, the Utands, traverses the country. The British were not taking the war with great seriousness in Africa, Mr. Hoyt said. The soldiers stationed at the East African capital are confident of victory, as are all the British residents in the country. African soldiers are being mobilized, according to Mr. Hoyt, and are being used in Mesopotamia with the Briiish forces. They are known as the King's African Riflemen, and most of them make good soldiers, although, according to the missionary they &r not Woman Evangelist at African M. E.
