A wartime projection warns that only about five percent of the 5,000,000 men in the draft pool will be able to serve after discharge. By 1925 veterans over thirty six will be gone, and by 1935 those over twenty eight will have vanished, leaving a shrinking reserve of trained soldiers for call up.

It claims Germany's total currency in circulation nears 2 trillion marks and, if quietly managed without moving rates, could retire inflated currency for less than $100 million, restoring the mark to prewar value.
