ton, of which the city of Muhlhausei|
itself was a component part, been re-
iected by the government but he also
had been informed on good authority
all the other Alsatan factories to be
liquidated would be sold to "old-Ger-
man" concerns beyond the Rhine.
Ruthlessness Condemned.
This attempt to Germanize Alsace
by ruthless industrial methods was
condemned by several members of the
city council. Councillor Emmel de-
nounced AS subterfuge the statement
of Undersecretary Won Stein, who had
said the Bleichroeder offer had been
accepted because 1t was the more
favorable one. The speaker saw In
the governments action systematic
effort to take Alsatian property away
from Alsatians.
The Bleichroeder group, the success
full bidder, is headed by the banking
house of Bleichroeder In Berlin. The
original Bleichroeder was Prince Bis
marck's financial man and his heirs
are still In control ~of the banking
house. Old Bleichroeder was not very
scrupulous In his financial methods,
but this did not prevent Bismarck
from comforting the title of nobility
upon his moneymaker. This was one
of the greatest jokes. perpetrated by
Bismarck.
However, Baron Blelchroeder's heirs
are still barons and their influence In
the highest circles is still formidable.
1t seems they had little trouble In OBJ
tanning the Alsatlan properties at fav-
orable terms-favorable to themselves,
for to them state supervision means
supervision by friends.
