POST-WAR PLAN FOR GERMANY
DIVISION INTO SMALL STATES . MR LANGSTONE SPEAKS IN WASHINGTON (Rec. 10 p.m.) WASHINGTON, May 28. The New Zealand Minister of Lands, the Hon. F. Langstone, said to the Press that after the war the division of Germany into small principalities lacking great, centralized power might be necessary to prevent the Nazi system from influencing the world. He said that under the Nazi trade system it would be possible for Germany to lose the war and still win post-war trade through barter. He said the Germans were advancing in this direction before the war.
Mr Langstone added that after the war some collaboration between the British Commonwealth, the United States and the Latin American nations would be needed. Even an economic union would be quite possible and very desirable.
