Berlin And Rome

Sleep and Food Scarce in Berlin; Meatless Days in Rome; But London Normal

New York, Aug. 14. The New York "Post" has devoted a full page to reports of their daily lives by their correspondents in London, Berlin and Rome.

The report from Mr. Stoneman, the newspaper's London correspondent, is headlined: "Life for the British runs along calmly, war or no war. Black-Outs, balloons, late buses amd air raids are all part of normalcy now."

The report of Mr. Deuel, Berlin correspondent, is headlined: "Sleep, soap, butter and news are scarce in the German capital Taxi, shoe-leather and cigarette problems, let alone air raids, plague correspondents."

The heading over the report of Mr. Whittaker, Rome correspondent, says that four meatless days keep the Italians reminded that they are in the war.—Reuter.

Text read from the printed page and cleaned; old type leaves the occasional error.
