DUSSELDORF, Germany, April 90
While politicians are figuring out
combinations at Berlin, and getting
much newspaper attention, gigan-
tic economic struggle is going on
behind the scenes in Germany of
which the general public at present
knows or suspects little. The issue
is shall Germany have high pro-
tectiye tariffs, or shall it enter into
a customs union with as many ma
tions as possible?
Ordinarily one hears a great dea!
in Germany about the struggle be-
tween the so-called heavy industry
Of the Ruhr Valley and the manufac.
turing industries Of Saxony, Thur
ingia. and southern Germany. In the
struggle over protection vs.. virtual
free trade, however, the lineup Is
a different one. Heavy industrial
concerns are found fighting shoulder
to shoulder with one group OF man
ufacturing industries.
Those who favor a high protec'
tive tariff argue that 80 long as
Germany is fettered with reparations
payments. its production cost will
continue to be SO high that there Is

tries. Therefore, the only way to
help German industry is to protect
the home industries by high tariffs.
The other argument in favor Of
customs unions runs as follows:
Germany has become so crippled by
the loss of Alsace-Lorraine and her
colonies, the slicing off Of Upper
Silesia, and the placing under for
eign administration of the Saar and
Memal regions, that the only sal
vation of her industry lies in branch
ing out into foreign countries. But
as other nations would be unwill-
ing to receive German goods unless
similar favorable treatment be ac-
corder their goods in Germany, the
customs union advocates argue that
Germany should abolish tariff bar
riers as far as possible. This may
mean the ruination of some few Ger.

This issue will come to the fore
more than ever after the turmoil
