Dr. Walter Rathenau was STYLED
"the wizard of the German empire
because by his high powers of organi-
zation and business efficiency he de-
vised expedients which kept ''the peo-
pie eating and the army shooting
when the blockade had shut off the
importation of raw material during the
war.
After the war, as minister of recon
struction, his meetings with the French
minister, Louis Loucheur. brought
about with business-like directness adj
iustments and accommodations which
had been the despair OF diplomats.
He was of Jewish birth and was de-
scribed as man of great force and
energy, business acumen, vision and
initiative.
At the outbreak of the World war,
while immersed in the development
of big business of tremendous scale
he was offered the office of minister of
raw materials His work in that ca
pacity obtained extraordinary re-
suits. Upon the success of his work
depended not only the economic life of
the interior of Germany but also the
maintenance of the farfiung German
armies. His organization almost nulli-
fed the allies blockade.
II was not until after the war that
the actual food privation afflicted the
people. The exactions and complex
ties of Bureaucratic life never appealed
TO him and after peace was declared
he was glad to plunge into the activi-
ties Of the German General Electric
company. which his father founded. He
dropped his chosen work when he was
offered the portfolio of ministry of
reconstruction.
He held this post for several months
but when the cabinet was reformed
in October. 1921. his portfolio was
eliminated. Although not member
Of the cabinet he represented the Ger
man government subsequently in va
rious economic conferences with the
allies He was appointed foreign min
lister on Jan. 81. taking the post that
Chancellor WiTth had been temporarily
filling following the retirement Of Or.
Walter Simons.
The accomplishment for which Dr.
Rsthenau came into greatest promi-
nence while minister Of reconstruction
was the agreement which he nsgoti-
ated with Louis Loucheur, French min
ister Of liberated regions. at Wies-
