Russian-controlled newspapers in Germany are -waging a campaign obviously aimed at shak- ing the Germans' faith in the United States by predicting that American economy is headed for a crisis and depression. Spearheads of this movement are the official news- paper of the Soviet military administration in Germany, the "Tagliche Rundchau," and the "Neues Deutchland," organ of the Soviet-
Communist-dominated sponsored
