Madrid, Sept. 3.
The civil and military authorities here are at present elaborating a plan for the supplies of foodstuffs and other necessities for the population next winter. 2 Special committees will visit villages to establish their production rate, fix sale' prices, and regularize the distribution of foodstuffs.
Other committees will study the question of transport which neces-sitares a large number of motor vehicles and a heavy amount of fuel, Special police brigades are at work seeding out hoarders and speculators, and confiscating their goods which will be sold later at normal prices by the authorities.
Harvest has been assured in practically all villages, and granaries are filled with wheat, oats, flour and barley.—Havas,
