Germany Charged With Driving To Financial Ruin
Dr Mathiau Erzberger, German vice chancellor and finance minister, claimed the Entente is driving Germany to ruin by not recognizing import duties on a gold basis. He said this blocks revenue and boosts smuggling from occupied areas into Germany, with Hamburg and Bremen imports waning. He noted the peace treaty will worsen the “hole in the west” but that French and British controls keep Germany within armistice terms. Coblenz reports few smuggling complaints as American routes stay blocked and occupiers manage trade through their zones.
