WILL PAY TO BUY BACK FREEDOM.

NEW GERMAN PICTURE. FORCING ENTRY INTO WORLD’S MARKETS. By Telegraph—Press Association —Copyright. Australian and N.Z. Cable Association. (Received September 29, 2.10 p.m.) LONDON, September 28. The "Morning Post’s" special correspondent at Berlin emphasises the hunt for industrial economies in raw material, labour and time ; and also the endeavour, in the export trade, to make up in quality what has been lost in quantity, in order that sheer merit may force an entry for German goods into hostile markets. Thus, the coal mines, ore mines, smelting works, rolling mills, locomotive shops and distributing firms are forming a 10-ng chain or industries, running gamut from the raw material to the finished product. In order to pay the reparations, tho correspondent says, Germany must carry still further the start she got over the rest of the world by applying science to industry. His final conclusion is that Germany is determined to r>nv in order to buy back her freedom. " Germany," says the correspondent. *• will become one humming workshop of scientifically-run industry. It is an interesting speculation as to what will be the relative position of Germany and her present-dav dictators when. after years of hi<rh-pressure production. the last penny of renarations is paid.*’
