In

Europe
has
made
only
spotty
recovery
and
massive
economic
difficulties
plague
practically
every
country.
Germany,
in
defeat
and
ruin
at
the
heart
of
Europe,
continues
to
create
the
most
critical
problems.

Russia
and
France
will
not
co-operate
for
various
reasons.
There
have
been
differences

authorities
on

hand
and
the
British
and
American
on
the

on
sub

ranging
from
the
level
of
German
production
to
removal
of
factories
on

Only
limited
progress
has
been
made
in

Germany's
industries
going

the
situation
in

on
which
many
European
countries
depend
