GERMANY’S PLIGHT
FINDING WORK PROBLEM Compulsion on Employers SERIOUS ECONOMIC STATE ißy Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright.) (Received 2, 10.45 a.m.) LONDON, Aug. 1. A Department of Overseas Trade report on Germany reveals the straits into which the Government has been driven in order to find work for 4,000,000 unemployed in two years, as Herr Hitler promised. Employers are forced to take on workmen whether they need them or not. No worker can be dismissed without State permission, and workers in employment have to return nearly one-third of their wages to help those without work. The report adds: “Germany’s foreign markets are shrinking alarmingly. If some means of financing raw material imports cannot be found, the German industrial machine will run down for want of fuel.”
