FOOD SCARCE AFTER THE WAR.
"EUROPE'S GREAT PROBLEM. . London, March 24. Sir William Goode, iiiiison officer to the Ministry of Pood Control, connecting with the American food control, speaking in Londffn, said that 200,000,000 European people would engage in a tremendous food scramble immediately after the war. The enemy will claim economic equality if peace is inconclusive, and the allies will probably be obliged to share, their supplies pro rata. Britain's share will fall below the present rations. America and Canada now supply 04 per cent, of our essential foodstuff's. We could not expect the Americans to continue their present voluntary sacrifices. Meanwhile the tonnage scarcity will severely limit supplies from Australia and New i Zealand.
