DEARTH OF METAL.
POSITION IN GERMANY. GENERAL GOERING’S DECREE. (Times Air Mail Service.) LONDON, January 28. In pursuance of his search for raw materials, General Goering, the Commissioner for the Four Year Plan, has ordered that certain metals in the possession of people who do not propose either to use them in manufacture or to sell them must be offered to the competent authorities by February 15, on pain of fine or imprisonment says the Berlin correspondent of the Times. It has recently been established, the order states, that large quantities of platinum, silver, copper, lead, nickel, tin, and zinc, in raw, semi-manufac-tured, and scrap form, are in the hands of private individuals and are thereby lost to industry.
