Policy clash shapes Germany plan split among Allies
Marquis Childs analyzes U S and allied plans for postwar Germany. He notes a clash between a disarmament and reconstruction approach backed by Will Clayton and Morgenthau and a counter effort within the White House and War Department to favor centralized control and four occupation zones. He questions how a four-zone admin would function and warns of humanitarian and strategic risks as policy battles unfold.
