Treasury experts have made q
comprehensive study Of the erratic
course taken by the German mark

divergence between the internal and

featuring costs In German depend
upon the internal value In Germany.
The advantage which the German
manufacturer and exporter enjoys
over the American and other com.
petitors comes from the fact that low
internal value Of the mark is accen-
tuated by benefits under subsidies,
which include low transportation
rates on the State railways, the
grain subsidy. maximum rent laws
and export price control.
German Prices Low.
Experts find that, as In all coun.
