Nothing Like Success Adenauer and Team Propelling West Germany
West Germany's Chancellor Konrad Adenauer leads a team driving a rapid economic revival. Ludwig Erhard guides free trade and competition while Fritz Schaeffer tightens credit. Alfred Krupp von Bohlen und Halbach, released from a US prison in 1951, helps rebuild industrial wealth. Adenauer tours the Eastern Mediterranean, seeking new markets as Germany rebuilds, with Greece and Turkey trade expanding from 46 to 66 million and overall volumes around 108 to 230 million during 1950–1952.
