Excerpts From Some Re-"

Received Here.
Lynching for Food Bureau Heads
Suggested.
Mass feeding is projected in Berlin,
it seems, which rouses, the Taegliche
Rundschau to violent protest:
"What are we to eat? As if existing
conditions were not bad enough signs
are now evident the food difficulties
are about to be further accentuated.
Little by little the popular belief is
onroifllniv in Tlnrltn that this will ho
arranged according to a preconceived
official plan to mold the population into
acceptance of the mass feeding proposals.
"We respectfully but energetically
ask authorities to spare us from such
schoolmaster drill tactics. Let them
| tell us honestly what they want of us
and we shall yield to the inevitable
as we have already yielded to so many
prlvatlonB. Unreasonable hardships,
however, no noble heart will bear, not
even the noble and patient heart of
the German people.
"The conditions In Berlin have become
utterly unreasonable during the
last few days?unreasonable and Intolerable.
Would that we could for
once take a lesson from the Americans
and lynch a few of the bureaucratic
wiseacres who seem to have
nothing better to do than to think out
mere impossible ordinances and regulations
regarding the requirements of
our stomachs.
"We really can bear no further additions
to them."
Wholesalers Attempt a Corner In
Geese.
"In order to stop usurious practices
of dealers in geese, reports the Vosslche
Zeitung, "the war usury committee
lias taken active measures.
"It was proved four wholesalers had
' combined to buy all available supplies
I and stop competition. Three wagons
I consigned to these Berlin Arms were
seized, and the geese, valued at J40,000
handed over to the authorities to be
sold in central market.
"Similar action has been taken regarding
certain fruit supplies." *
Ward Economy Boards to Facilitate
Farming.
Vosslche Zeitung of Berlin announcj
es the creation of a "war economy
board," which will supply labor, horses.
farming implements and coal to facilitate
