Americans Trying To JARDINE, MATHESON & CO., LTD.
Pull Out?
(By Rembert James)
Moscow, May 5. Tass, the official Soviot News Agency, today charged that Secretary of Stato James F. Byrnes, in proposing a 25-year tresty for supervising Gormany, was possibly raising a "paper curtain" behind which the United Statos could retreat from carrying out its obligations in Germany.
Tass declared it appeared that the Americans were prepar- ing to pull out of the Reich before Hitlerism is stamped out.
