GERMANS NEED FOOD
REMOVAL FROM FRANCE Rec. 5.5 p.m. New York, Sept. 9. Dr. Joseph Stokes jnr., who has returned from a six weeks' tour of unoccupied France on behalf of the Quaker relief organisation, said the Germans were doing nothing to hclp thc inhabitants of the unoccupied zones, which were threatened with famine. "The Germans," hc said, "should permit food to enter, but Ihe fact that they are removing food to Germany shows they need it thamselves." It is reliably stated at Washington that Germany has formally demanded that the Vichy Government ship to the Reich 58 per cent. of the food and raw materials in unoccupied France and similarly such products imported to France in the future, says the correspondent of the New York Times. It is believed the new French Ambassador at Washington, who will endcavour to obtain food relief for France from the United States, will meet fresh obstacles as a result of the German demand.
