Another problem mentioned in the
Price report, one which is being
widely discussed at the moment In

ceived fright on the subject that
was probably unfounded, although
it may have been true that some Of
the fairly dangerous Hitlerites were
being given jobs which they should
not have had. Then we went to the
other extreme, instead of swallow
ing camels we now strain at Nazis.
An amusing incident occurred. A
member Of the military government
set out In a methodica1 manner to
get a list Of the best experienced
men for q certain set Of jobs. With
the cooperation Of properly
screened" German he turned them
up all right but when he submitted
the names of the men and their
qualifications all were put in jail
under the letter Of the law the posi-
tons they had held under the Nazi
regime made them subject to "au-
tomato arrest" This law is really
only a directive which sets a GER
tain minor title (about equivalent to
chief Of section in our federal gov
ernment) as the dividing line. Any
one above that rank is considered
per Sc Nazi and suspect.
Russians and British have no such
drastic standards and I was told of
what happened to a German who
lived right on the border of the
American and Russian zones. He
came to the American Military gov
eminent and applied for an admin
istrative job and presented his Gre
dentials. After reading them the
American to whom he applied said:
II certainly won't hire you. If I
did you would be Immediately ar
rested. As it is, since you have
applied formally you will be arrest
ed in "a hours anyhow. My advice
to you is: move across the street
into the Russian zone and apply for
a job there" He did and was
promptly hired by the Russians.

Note Change
In Sentiment

Typical of the rapidly of the
change both In conditions in Ger
many and in sentiment at home is
the question of whether America
would be willing to send enough food
to Germany to prevent starvation
and the epidemics which would
surely be expected if German phys
ical resistance was not built up. An
increased amount of calories is now
assured and I might say that you
would be surprised at the surprise
expressed by certain high official
in Berlin when Washington "came
across" Sentiment in that respect
did change in the States but l am
afraid it wasn't due to any keen
realization that it was part of fin
ishing an important job. It was
just a sentimental and charitable
gesture, typical of Americans who
don't like to see anybody starve.
1t was not a practical response to
a cold-blooded necessity.
Nevertheless, we can write that
point off as on the credit side.
We've been spared a fight against
disease. But what about the twin
factors stressed by Price and every
one else who knows anything about
Europe today: the economic unfit
cation and the French deadlock
which prevents it? How much
knowledge or interest is America dis
playing on that subject? From what
General Clay said to me I feel he
believes a solution of his major
problems is impossible unless Ger
many is united in single economic
unit. There are no present pros
poets.
The French are stubborn and
their motivating emotion in refusing
to permit German industry of the
Saar and Ruhr valleys to try to pay
the nations own way is fear-fear
as 1t was from 1870 until 1914, when
it was justified. And from 1899 that
fear has grown. Unless the rest of

Confusion Marks
u. S. Operations

There are two conflicting theories
now in operation in the American
zone. One is the theory attributed
to General Clay, namely, that the
Germans must help themselves. The
other theory is that we must help
them help themselves or We'll have
to do all the helping. In other
words, as one somewhat cynical
gentleman expressed it: IF we
don't get the Germans where they
can make enough goods to exchange
for food we'll end up by paying the
other countries the PREPARATIONS.
The Russians know well how to
exploit German resources. If they
see a factory which can produce
goods they want and it is not prac-
teal to move it to Russia, they see
to it that German management is
permitted to operate as efficiently
as possible and that German work.
men get food or pay enough to make
them efficient. The British are like
wise far more lenient than we. They
have no more intention than the Rus
slams Of building up a potential en-
envy but they do intend to build up
potential customers.
The Americans, while they are no
harder and no softer toward the
Germans as far as personal rela-
tons 60, have hamstrung rehabilita-
ton by putting restrictions upon
German industry and frequently
employ negative attitude which
allows the natives to misdirect their
energy.

ants who formerly sold him their
milk refused to do so because they
were able to convert it to butter and
butter, on the black market, is gold
in Germany. Germany could use
the chocolate and baby food, espe-
cially the latter, but the policy Of
letting the Germans alone keeps
those wheels idle, results in a loss
to American business and cuts off a
vital food which has to be supplied
by the Americans.

En- route to Washington.-This Is

typical gray, windy, winter drizzles.
After good breakfast and little

This is not going to be a trav-

Of the impressions I have garnered
as I watched America enter its Sec
ond phase as world power, actu-
ally at work In attempting to build
new Europe. Everywhere, from
almost the first day 1 reached the
Paris airport and chatted with some
Americans bound for an internation-
al labor conference, to the moment
little while ago when a hospit-
able air corps general "moaned
low" to me, as he called 1t, to the
accompaniment Of the wind outside
everywhere have heard earnest,
anxious voices raised in the same
query: Is America willing to finish
the job?
I heard this concern frankly ex-
pressed from the lips of American
officials like Minister Murphy and
Military Governor General Clay in
Berlin. I heard another version Of
It from Ambassador Caffrey in the
American Embassy in Paris.
heard It repeated by professors and
doctors, among the civilians and
technicians and specialists, among
the military-the men who are do
ing "better than a good job" as By
ron Price said in the special report
to the President in November.
I do not pretend to have been able
to make as exhaustive a study of
conditions In American occupied
Germany as Price did but what
would like to do is to report some of
my own impressions formed in dis
cussing the main points he stressed.
Although less than a month inter-
vened since Price wrote up his find
ings and followed his trail, I get
the impression that the "civiliza-
ton" of the American government
in Germany has well begun and will
move steadily forward toward its
goal of completion in June as Price
suggests it should. Personally, it
seems to me that it might be better
to set as a limit for the period of
complete transmogrification from
uniformed regime to plain clothes,
a measure of accomplishment. Cir
cumstances might alter specifca-
tons.
