WILL FIX CLAIMS
OF ]. s. INVESTORS
German Finance Agent to
Set Retaliation on Loans
Held in America.
By the Associated Press.

by the Associated Press.
BERLIN, September 14.-Dr. Adolf
Friedrich, departmental chief in the
finance ministry, has been designated
by the German government as special
commissioner to the United States to
regulate the claims of persons in
America holding German federal or
state loans or other securities falling
under the revaluation law.
DIR. Friedrichs is leaving for the
United States on Thursday on the
liner Columbus One of his duties
will be to designate the banks through
which claims Tor revaluation may be
filed.
The finance ministry today issued a
warning against the practice of many
holders of German government Sc
curitieS in America of sending these
securities to friends in Germany with
power of attorney to present their
claims. This only leads to confusion.
1t was said. DIR. Friedrichs' arrange
ments will enable all such holders to
present their claims directly.
The work arising from the revalua-
ton law is unparalleled in German
financial history. More than 100000
600 securities must be exchanged for
revaluation papers, and millions of
claims must be individually examined
for separate owners who bought before
the period of German imitation from
those who acquired their securities
later.
