ILLICIT TRADE
IN FOODSTUFFS
ON INCREASE
COBLENZ, Jan. 13 (by Associated
Press).—Illicit trade in food, with
its attendant evils of smuggling and
usury, is on the increase throughout
Germany, according to newspaper ac
counts.
The rationing system has never been
abandoned, even in the occupied areas
of the Rhineland, and some of the
newspapers contened that the average
individual can not subsist on the
amount of food issued. The authori
ties are making every effort to check
the illegal traffic in foods of all kinds
and the courts are crowded day after
day.
Smuggling of potatoes is being car
ried on this winter in all parts of Ger
many on a scale greater than in war
time. Germany produced an excellent
potato crop last year, and the authori
ties are trying to save it from falling
into the hands of the speculators. ,
Well-to-do people have been going
to Bavaria from Prussia, Wuerttem
burg and Thuringia to buy potatoes,
eggs and fats, for which the farmers
charged exorbitant prices. This has
worked a hardship on the poorer peo
ple, who could not compete with
them.
Living appears to be cheaper in Ba
varia than elsewhere in Germany. But
ter has been selling there at 5 marks
a pound, compared with 30 marks in
Berlin. Eggs are quoted at 25 pfen
nigs each, while in Berlin they cost
1.75 marks apiece. Eggs in the oc
cupied area have been bringing from
2 to 2.50 marks each this winter, but
are very scarce at any price.
Meat is also reported as fairly plen
tiful in Bavaria, although in all other
states this form of food is virtually
unpurchasable through regular chan
nels by householders, excepting once
or twice each month, when the au
thorities permit a few ounces to be
distributed by the card system to the
individuals. Most of the hotels
throughout ermany continue to serve
meat three or four days each week,
however. The proprietors say they ob
tain this from Holland, and that this
does not violate the food regulations.
