MANCHESTER, England, Dec. 1.—
“The experience of the present war
should result in the general adoption
of the meatless diet,” says the an
nual “program” adopted by the Vege
tarian society of Great Britain, which
has just closed its annual conven
tion here.
In his presidential address, Profes
sor Ernest Bell spoke of the “many
hundreds of millions of men and wo
men who are now obtaining a living
out of the slaughter of animals and
fish” and suggested that one of the
social results of a general adoption
of vegetarianism would be that “these
people would turn to more humane
and edifying work.” He added, “At
a time like this, when food is a most
serious problem, it is monstrous to
devote 64 pounds of dry grain to the
production of one pound of beef.”
Bernard Shaw, in a letter to the
convention, said that he had been a
vegetarian for forty years, and spoke
*
of'the meat diet as a relic of cannibal
ism.

BERNE, Nov 30.—(Ry Mall)—Ger
many has resorted to stringent mea
sures of reducing its coal consump
tion during the coming winter bv cut
ting down its train service and cur
tailing the number of people who
travel, especially in express trains.
The latest edition of the Journal of
the association of German railroads
I announces that at a r -^ent meeting
of the representatives of all German
. railroads, held i Bei lin, i was unani
i mously decid r on! to* reduce the
number of 'rai , hut to put suCh a
j high cost ip traveling, by means of
radical ai in the price of tickets,
as to iusn'Q th ■* only those will travel
who ah • jlutcly must do so.
he ad . ices contemplated and j
i a h pr. hably will become effective
n very short time are as fol
'n all tickets for express
co ing up to five marks, an
ra chart of three marks will be
1; ticket hitherto costing from
} ive to 10 : >rks will be taxed 8 marks
extra; from 10 to 15 marks, 13 marks
i extra; from 15 to 25 marks, 20 marks
! fextra, and for sums above 25 marks,
/j 10 marks extra for each 10 marks as
j | ordinarily charged.
Likewise tffere is to be a sharp lim
j | itation in baggage regulations so that
both the size and number of trunks,
as well as their weight, will be cut
down. For the first time in manv
i
j ■ years, Sunday trains are to be re
| duced in number. Hitherto they have
j always run on week day schedules, -
jj I sometimes even have been increased
| in number because of the German’s
love of making Sunday excursions.
In order to assure the punctual ar
J rivgl and departure of trains, which
unfortunately suffered greatly laBt
j winter because it was impossible to
! set up enough stefim to haul the long
heavy express trains on time, the time
tables will be revised so that trips
■ will be longer than under »the pres
ent schedule—though phobably no
( longer than they have been actually
taking.
