BANNING OF NAZIS
New Allied Directive In Germany (Rec. 7 p.m.) LONDON, August 27. A Frankfurt-on-Main message says that Nazis will not be allowed to retain wealth, power or influence in any capacity. That is the theme of a new ban by the Allied military authorities in Germany designed to “de-Nazify” every phase of German life. The military governments had hitherto directed attention mainly to ousting the Nazis from governmental and public positions. The new directive, however, clearly specifies the banning of Nazis in business professions and other' occupations. The directive states: “Those removed will be replaced by persons who by their political and moral qualities are deemed capable of assisting in developing genuine democratic institutions in Germany. Then- removal will mean that persons designated as hostile to the Allied purposes will be disqualified from engaging in their businesses and professions and will be limited to employment of an unimportant nature. These persons will be banned from receiving pensions and will lose all their civil rights.”
