The economic geography of the war is such that the Allied Contraband Control is directed primarily against material and only to a minor extent aâ€" gainst food. The German Gov‘t itself is making very little attempt to un foodstuffs through the blockade, and consequently it may be assumed that the Government is not concerned aâ€" bout the effect of the Contraband Control upon the internal food situaâ€" tion. ‘They could in any case counâ€" terâ€"act it by diverting resources a way â€" from production EASTER sunpay mionite MmMonoay & TuUEsDay ¢ MARCH 24, 25, : Jeffrey Lynn gard food as conditional contraband .
