LEIPZIG, August 26.
.„ Amplifying his recent utterances on imports and curroncy restrictions, Dr. Sehaeht, opening tho autumn fair, declared for a drastic restriction of imports to which eurront agreements must 1)0 adapted. Gormauy would never resort to currency manipulation or dumping, employing only such measures as were sanctioned by tho short-term and long-term creditors. Germany was not bankrupt, but could not buy f oroign currency because other countries would not buy sufficiently from her. This must lead to a breakdown in world trade because the forcing of transfer agreements on her must create an absolute clearing system, turning the world into a series of isolated fortresses. If Gorman goods were boycotted, the sufferers would be foroign exportors and bondholdors, Australian wool growers, and American cotton-raisers, etc. Cortain foreign Governments had taken grotesque steps to obtain payment of overdue debts. This would not be forgotten nor that Germany also had payments overdue to her from exports.
