Trade Fair Reveals East West Economic Gap In Leipzig
At the Leipzig international trade fair East Germany shows a clear contrast with the West. East bloc deals rely on barter while the West demands hard currency. Japan extends about 52 million dollars in long term credit for automation textiles and steel, with firms extending credit if government backing is avoided. East German leaders cite Washington delays in recognition as slowing reforms.
