SEAF'ORTH, FRIDAY, A1J6TIST
2, 1918
'GERMANY'S FINANCIAL TEN-
TACLES DESTROYED.
,Much more energy has .been die -
played by the American Govetnenent
n spsrieg out and destroying German
rests than has been shown in England
or in Canada. 1This is strikingly true
with regard to the search for hidden
enemy financial. interests. At the
present time German interests
valued at 4,400;000,000 are in the
hands of Mr. A. Mitchell Feltner,
Alien. Property! Custodian, and it is
maid that another $300,000,000 has
been located- and soon will be work-
ing for Uncle Sam. A considerable
part of this vest sum is sunk in
business abselutely essential to
the war effort of the United States.
For instance, the Schuette-Koert-
ling Company, of Phialdelphia, is a
great tdanufacttmer = of marine
naives, and if the. establishment
had been destroyed it would have
taken two and a half years to re-
place it. In the meantime Ameri-
can ships. would have been ham-
pered. When the Government
agent walked in on these manu-
facturers they found, in a safe a
plan to destroy the plant by dyna-
mite, for itewas kno-wn that it was
likely to be seized. Had the Ger-
man ownees of the business been
able to put their scheme into exe-
cution. they 'Would have struck a
severe blow at the United _States.
Another Geridan-owned busiuess
that had an international reputa-
tion. before the war the Bosch'
Magneto Company, of Springfield,
Mass. Its two factories' big planta
are said to be worth $7,000,000,.
They were owned alindst exclusive-
ly • by Germans, although consider-
able ingenuity had been expended
to conceal this fact. The - sleuth
hounds of Mr. Palmer soon estab-
lished the facts, and the Custodian
of Alien Property took charge.. The
plants are. now operate* as. part of
the War °ince. Whatever profits
are derived will go to the United
States Government. The. German
owners will receive no dividends.
Whether at the end of the war they
will get their property back. whe-
ther it will be simply confiscated or
sold to American owners and the
proceeds handed over, to the Ger-
mans' are • questions yet in doubt.
Mr. Palmer, will not, of course de-
cide American policy in , this re-
spect but he remarked a few days
ago: "I would divorce utterly and
forever all Gorman capital from
American induetry." - a
Investigeeien e by his departm tit
showed that German control of cer-
tain .American industries Wag'
'eoitinieteeir Fon; 'examplee, th
prodlictiori of woollen i cloth, 'Was in
a Teutonic grip, and six great New
Jersey -mills valued at about $70,-
000,000 were seized last March.
Germans were strongly established
in the cotton trade. Before the war
Germany had been 1 overbuying cot -
non, knowing that the war Was
coming, but expecting that it -would
be over in I short order. She ' also
owned a group of cotton factories
in New England, her idea beihg
that mivhile the . war lasted these
mills should pile' up a great stock
of cotton gdods to be suddenly dis-
posed of after the war. In the fur
tide, Germany was particularly
powerful, thanks largely to the,
monopoly of the dyeing industry.
Pelts taken in all parts of the
world - were shipped to the London
market, where they were sold anti
afterwards sent to Leipsic, which
was the dyeing headquarters. To -day
no skins from this continent go to
Leipsic to be dyed. The fur -dyeing
industry has been re-establtshed in
the _United States and it will not
depart after the war.

These businesses were before the
war legitimate. That is to say they
were promoted by Gerrnatis and
manag}71 by Germans with the idea
of Mit ing money for German share-
holder. Other Ainerican businesses
in German hands have been found
to' be directly connected with •the
German Foreign Office. They wer
partly commercial and partly politi
cal. A sample case is that of the Ger-
man -American Lumber Company,
which had great holdings about St.
Andrew's Bay, on the Gulf Coast of
Florida. St. Andrew's Bay is said to
be one of the best 'harbors on the
southern coest line. The American
businessmen who sought to develop
the port found themselves iblocked by
the German -American Lumber Cono
pa,ny, which had so entrenched itself
with land holdings about the ship
lbasin as completely to control the
bay. Though the company did a tri-
fling business, it owned some 160,000
acres of timberland, and refused to
sell any in order that the port might
be improved.
Finally a small railway -was put
through from the interior to the bay,
by condemning every foot of right-
of-way in face of the oppositkm of the
'lumber compantr. • When the United
States entered the war, the name of
the lumber company naturally chale
enged enquiry and it was found that
its offices was a storeroom for Ger-
man propaganda literature, the lum-
ber businesabeing insignificant. The
expenses* of the company were alk
paid from. Berlin, and it seems plain
that the German Government had
the idea of using St. Andrew's Bay
for military. purposes, pernapS as a
submarine base, had the Opportunity
presented itself. " In the far West
German ownership has beett discover-
ed in impoitant mines, and as
soon as discovered has been extin-
guished. Quite recently German op-
erations in the newspaper field have
been disclosed, and it is hinted that
further revelations are to be expect-
ed. Perahps nO money was ever
