German business branches in Germany under state supervision
Washington dispatches report German business interests have asked Chancellor von Bethmann-Hollweg to place the International Harvester and Singer Sewing Machine branches in Germany under state supervision. State department notes such a move would raise a serious issue about German business branches in the United States. Until now German houses here operated with little restraint. An easy mark by any other name would be foolish.
