STARVING GERMANY
Snt—Correspondents in Berlin have been sending to their newspapers a description of conditions in that city which must have been read by many with grave disquiet. Expelled from their homes in the Sudeten- land, East Prussia and the whole vast region of Germany taken over by the Poles, sometimes at thirty minutes' notice and without the provision of food or transport, a horde of Germans is struggling daily into Berlin— and being turned away, because there is no food tor them. The majority are old men, women and children.
It is not in accordance with the traditions of this country to let children — even the children of ex-enemies—starve. But we have reason to believe that in any caw numbers of our fellow-countrymen would be willing to make some voluntary sacrifice in this cause. We ask, there- fore, all who read this letter, and who share our concern, immediately to send a postcard (not a letter) to "Save Europe Now," 144 Southampton Row, London, W.C. t, giving their name and address and saying that they will gladly have their rations cut, if thereby alone men, women and children of whatever nationality may be saved from intolerable suffering.
