It is believed here that if the Britâ€" ish succeed in taking Jerusalem the American refugees there, numbering over a thousand, will choose to remain Instead of attempting to proceed to Beirut to secure transportation to the United States as they had planned. The British capture of the city would also open a new route out of Turkey for the Americans who wished to reâ€" turn to the United States in any event.

There are sixty articles on the . list, including table cloths, napkins, silks, manufactured or raw; waterproof stuffs and garâ€" ments, oil cloths, woolen yarns, fibres of every sort, animal hair, bristles, felt, old or new blankets, tarpaulin, leggings, knee bandages, and other sanitary articles. The country, acâ€" cording to advices received here, is beâ€" ing emptied under this decree of everything useful to Germany. "We are confronted with the thought of what would happen if this measure also skhould fail and what grim starvation there would be if sudâ€" denly during the closing months of the economic year we should find there was insufficiency and we could not hold out. _ The ensuing misery would be indescribable." "We have not perceived in the towns that sterh supervision which is absolutely necessary in the distribuâ€" tion of foodstuffs. There has been wideâ€"spread abuse of breadâ€"tickets, entailing grave consequences as reâ€" gards our stocks. Bread tickets have been ilegally used on such a shockâ€" ing scale that our entire reserves were exhausted. So when potatoes failed and bread was ordered as a substitute there was none available. Flour has been similarly reduced, owing to simiâ€" lar irregularities in the mills." Dr. Michaelis concluded by urging the utmost severity to remedy the shortâ€"comings while there was yet time. _ Some of the mills would have to be closed and the municipalities deâ€" prived of their autonomous powers. Rationing and requisitioning must be strictly applied with respect to eggs, milk, butter, fruit and vegetables. He added: "We have in the third year of the war," the food controller is quoted as saying, "discovered that among all sections of the people the general feeling evidenced is not one of that endurance for which we have hoped. This is human nature, but it is highly deplorable, and may have most seriâ€" ous results. Besides these there were 125,000 widows who are now drawing separâ€" ation allowances, but will scon go on the pension list; 65,000 men in hospiâ€" tals, and 65,000 men medically unfit. Those fgures brought the total numâ€" ber of men, women and children to 778,741. _ Medically unfit, of whom over 100,000 were not to be granted pensions, were to be put back where the State found them. In exceptional cases there would be a gratuity of £100. _ The scheme in its entirety would involve a capital charge of £396,000,000, and for the first two years £25,000,000, Prussian Food Controller Says Reserves of Bread Are Exhausted. A despatch from London says: The Prussian food controller, Dr. George Michaelis, made in the Prussian Diet on Wednesday what the Koelnische Zeitung calls a serious speech on the food situation, says a Reuter despatch from Amsterdam. Dr. Michaelis deâ€" clared that the distress was such that a more severe state of things, espeâ€" cially in the large industrial centres, could hardly be imagined. He indiâ€" cated the possibility that all surplus stocks of grain would be exhausted, and said that very radical measures were needed to enable the people to hold out until next year.
