WHY ALLIES RESTRICT PURCHASES The United States requires that na- | tions at war pay cash for any goods | | bought in this country. The nation advises belligerents that | | they will not be given credit in this coun- try, if they are already in debt to us, the British and French happen to be.

Thus Germany, which promiged, after | receiving the Sudeten area, to respect the | ©zach republic, is practically engaged in the systematic pillage of the private prop- | | erty of the people in that unfortunate sec- | tion. It is also reported that textile and carpet factories are being forced to .clase | down through lack of raw materigls and ‘state or the county who expect to thet the machinery from the factories is Leing dismantled and sald to Russia.
