Part of this is due to lack of Russian cooper-| ation; part to the zeal of U. S. commanders to make their zone of | Germany function: perhaps part is the result of a deliberate plan, inspired by certain army men and| certain U. S. cartels once operat- ing in Germany Two of the most dangerous de- velopments are: 1. Greater and greater use of | former N in governing Ger-! many, they now have the job of distributing clothes, running the| railroads, teaching schools, even the de-Nazification program; so that former Nazis now have com- plete responsibility for settling the claims of Jews and non-N: whose property was seized by Hit- ler. 2. U. S. authorities plan to re- vitalize and strengthen the Ger- man currency $0 far, this is a closely guarded secret. However, U. S. occupation authorities propose to replace Gerr- man marks at the rate of ten old to one new, which would do much to make Germany stronger. Those few who know of this plan | feel that it is in direct contradic- tion to Rooseveit's warning against | doing “for Germany what their backs.” EVERYBODY GETS HIS Senator Elmer Thomas of Okla- homa last week diverted his atten- tion from the cotton and rye mar- | kets long enough to introduce an! amendment moving pricc ceilings on petroleum, cotton, milk, livestock, economically | this lone, Secretary of the Independent government did for its own citizens | in ‘1933 when they were flat on| to the OPA bill re-! timber, | | “We didn’t come latest figure is substantially above the but only moderately greater than return in 1 DS An examinatio average for was 4.4 per cent. outsmarted Hitler | g The War During the depressed base per net worth was 2.9 per cent.
