S. Unhappily for Ambassador Dieckhoff his few months in the United States have been marked by a serious Western Hemisphere diplomatic reverse for Berlin. He had hardly been here four weeks when the State Department reached a financial agreement with Brazil which threatened Germany's towering structure of trade with that Bouth American country. This was a severe jolt to Berlin, whese statesmen had worked hard to | wean Brazilian commerce from the Tnited States. Ambassador Dieckhoff, owever, can hardly be blamed for the setback. Secretary Hull is funda- mentally opposed to the manner in which Germany trades, and nothing: the Ambassador could say - would change the Hull view. Ambassacor Dieckhoff is the head man of a 60-year-old red brick em- bassy building, and under him is & staff of men who work, work, work. German diplomats, like German business men, German technicians, or German scientists, are thorough. And a group of German diplomats in the United States studies the United Btates through a microscope. ‘When an airline from Newark to Miami de- cides to skip Washington as a stop, Berlin hears about it, When the Fed- eral Government’s Greenbelt housing project is opened Berlin knows and sends a man across the ocean to.look at it. All governments receive reports from their ambassadors, but the Dieckhoff reports are marvels of ¥ minutiae. Secretaries Share Job. The business of telling ‘Wilhelm- gtrasse about the United States is divided among the secretaries of the Embassy. Dr. Herbert Scholz, First Secretary and Acting Counselor, for instance, studies the culture of our country. He inquires into our educational processes ang educational theory, and to &c- quaint himself fully with American pedagoguery, he travels about the country visiting universities. He also angwers stacks of letters from Amer- icans on German culture: What of the Hifler youth movement? What is the real meaning of the Nazi church stand? Pirst Secretary Wilhelm Tannen- berg studies the economics of the United Sfates. It is his duty to know evéry move in America which can af- fedt German trade, and that incltes th}sim of the long-staple cotton erop Men's $1.95 Genuine PIGSKIN [ "SEAVER LA GLOVES [ iciets“g New!
