'Free food for the Dutch.

'Free food for the Dutch. A Dutch housewife draws her family's free issue of Allied food in a shop in Utrecht, Holland, where relief shipments have been sent in large consignments. The relief food averted a threatened famine, caused by Germans breaking the Low Country dikes and flooding the farms with seawater. From Amsterdam and Rotterdam, road convoys move to inland towns and country districts with meat, fish and other tinned foods, sugar, margarine, biscuits, chocolate, milk and coffee. Relief rations are issued free on presentation of food cards at selected distribution centers throughout Holland. Before the Germans surrendered, food was dropped to the starving people by plane.'
