Moreover, as Minister of Economics, he can grant or refuse i import permits; he can fix the quantities of any commodity im- ported to Germany; he can vetoj the erection of new plants or thei closing-down of old ones.

He holds formidable means of coercion over Individual employers, He may fine them for infraction of his raw-material decrees; he may also remove them if they fail to fall into line.
