ment Of May Is, 1946, 'the Allied gov
erriments were to draw from the Swiss
government Immediately up to so mill
lion Swiss francs Of the proceeds Of the
-iiquidatiofl of the German property
against their share thereof" These
funds were to 60 to the International
Refugee Organization for the benefit of
the refugees. Yet up to the present. only
20 million francs were handed over by
the Swiss.
The Swiss consider themselves a hui
name people. Would 1t not be fair to
place at the disposal of the refugee or
ganizations the 80 million francs which
they still owe under the original agree
ment? Since the Swiss pride themselves
on being the earliest democracy, would
it not be contribution on their part
to the strengthening of democracy by
working together with the signatory
powers to ferret out the real hidden Ger
man assets, by eliminating the German
cartel activities and by preventing the
Germans from making use of the ILL
gotten loot? And Is it not the duty of
a real democracy to keep It's pledges
toward another democracy?
