Queues for
bread. Erika [from the German Consulate] and I
walked along
about a hundred ragged pale people. Militiaman came out of shop whose
windows had been battered in and were covered with wood and said:
“There is
no bread” and “there will be no bread today.”
Shouts from angry peasants also there.
“But
citizens, there
is no bread.”
“How long here?” I asked a man. “Two days.”
They
would not go away but remained. Sometimes cart came with
bread; waiting
with forlorn hope.
