not all be German. At least, that
Is not likely to be the case. Much
of it may be American.
Americans, important Americans
were up to their ears in German
industry for years before the wal
began, the years in which the in
dustrial basis of the war was be-
ing built. They were in the very
industries that made Germany
strong enough to attempt world
conquest. This is no secret. Anti
trust prosecutions by the Justice
Department, including cases that
have been concluded and cases still
pending, have brought out the facts
Additional facts have been pub
1ished by Senator Kilgore's SUBJ
committee of the Senate's War In
vestigating Committee.
Cartels Established.
German industrialists can be
charged with building war indus
tries, sometimes disguised as peace
industries, in direct corporation
with the German military machine.
They can be charged also with
strangling the industries of other
countries, through the development
of international cartels-with the
cooperation of industrialists in
Great Britain, France and America.
Products of some of these industries,
which in due time proved vitally
necessary to the American war
effort, were withheld from America
as they were from Britain and
France.
The part the German industrial
lists played in crippling the war
potential of her future enemies
was made clear when France and
England we're attacked. Those
countries sought to place orders
in the United States for essential
war materiel, only, in many cases,
to be turned away. For example,
range finders, periscopes, gun sights
and other military optical goods,
badly needed, could not be furnished
by the leading American manu-
facturer because of a cartel agree
ment with German firm which
gave the latter exclusive rights to
the European market.
Synthetic Rubber.
z The desperate lengths to which
the American Government went to
build up a synthetic rubber in
dustry is well remembered. A cartel
agreement with all American COM
pany had given I. G. Farbenindus-
trie tight control over the manu-
facture of buna. Only a few weeks
before Pearl Harbor that Ameri-
can company sued an independent
American company for alleged
patent infringement because it
sought to experiment with the pro-
duction of synthetic rubber.
Similar stories have been told
concerning long list of vital war
items-aviation gasoline, aviation
glass, aviation instruments, mag
nesium, chlorate of potash, carboloy,
nickel, electrical goods and so on.
The defense to be offered by the
German industrialists if these
trials come off-will be interesting.
Will they say they did not know
what they were doing or will they
say, "yes, we did it for the Father
land. For the Fatherland, we made
suckers of the British, the French
and the Americans
Or will they say, as one German
industrialist is already reputed to
have said to an American investi-

La Guardia 10 Preseni
Plan 10 Continue Aid
After UNRRA Dies

A plan which UNRRA Director
General Fiorella La Guardia de-
scribes as novel will be presented to
the United Nations Assembly later
this month for the continuation OF
relief measures for needy countries
after the expiration of UNRRA.
Mr.. La Guardia refused to discuss
the plan at press conference yes
terday, at which he disclosed a
trio of high ranking UNRRA officials
was en- route to Yugoslavia to in
vestigate reports that Marshal Tito
has been using mules and trucks
with "U. S. A." markings to handle
troop and supply movements.
Later Undersecretary of State
Acheson said this Nation wants a
thorough inquiry by UNRRA into
the charges which were recently
made by four unidentified UNRRA
employees returning to the United
States.
Continuation List Drawn.
Regarding the plan for continua-
ton of relief activity, Mr.. La Guardia
said 1t would not involve a very
large amount of money" would not
be based on either gifts or short
term loans.
Mr.. La Guardia said he had pre-
pared a list of countries to which he
considered aid should be continued
but he would not divulge the list
per,ding submission of his plan to
the U. N. Assembly.
Asked about reports that Russians
and Yugoslavs had recently spurned
issues of horse meat, Mr.. La Guardia
remarked tartly:
st don't blame them. think the
use of horse meat for human con-
sumption is demoralizing and de-
grading"
He said the horse meat referred to
was probably some canned horse
meat shipped into devastated coun-
tries before he assumed the UNRRA
post.
Mule Explanation Confusing.
Mr.. La Guardia said the United
States Army had presented some
mules to the Yugoslav army some
time ago and that later UNRRA
shipped in some mules for relief and
rehabilitation work. The Yugoslavs
did a little trading Of mules for
breeding purposes later. he contn-
ued.
This explanation seemed . bit
Evening star., 1946-10-05

confusing, since mules are hybrids,
unable to reproduce themselves.
The three-member commission
which has been dispatched to Yugo-
slavia to probe the reports concern
ing the mules is headed by Alfred
G. Katzin, deputy chief of supplies
in the European regional Office of
UNRRA.
What kind of action will result
if the charges are found to be true?'
Mr.. La Guardia was asked.
Lets wait until we come to that,
he replied.
Mr.. La Guardia said he regarded
the status of $4,000 displaced per-
sons in camps in Europe as one of
the most heart-breaking and diff
cult PROBLEMS in the world today"

gator, that the idea Of an interna-
tional cartel in his particular
industry-one that worked out ad-
vantageously for Germany -origi-

mary question: viii the Industrial
