AIDING GERMAN TRADE
REPEAL OF U.S. ACT SOUGHT
(Rec. 7 p.m.) BERLIN, Jan. 21. The Commander of the United States zone of Germany (General J. T. McNarney) has revealed that he has asked Washington to repeal the Trading with the Enemy Act and to remove a number of foreign nations from the State Department’s ‘‘black list” so they could resume trading with Germany. General Kurochkin, the Russian deputy-military governor, told Lieu-tenant-General Lucius Clay, the American deputy-Military Governor at a meeting of the co-ordinating committee of the Allied Control Council, that the increase in industry in the Soviet Zone, which the Russians recently promised, applied only to peace-time industries and did not violate the Four-Power agreement. The Russian explanation apparently satisfied Lieutenant-General Clay, who asked General Kurochkin at a meeting on January 16 for more information about his plans to dismantle German industrial plant.
