; i only a month after the western ~ occupation authorities introduced currency reform, industties In Biaonla set a new post war record , ! of 97 percent of 193*1 production. 11 Coal production was up to 91 percent of pre-war days. This month • i the Ruhr mines are expected to I yield JOO.oOO tons of hard coal a > I day. But shop windows demonstrate recovery even more dramatically than statistics. In Hamburg, you can buy tor $179 a new Leica camera that i costs $l5O in New York. In Munich, a new vacuum clean I er sella for |47. I In Frankfurt, a Woolworth store window is packed with American imports, some selling for leas than at the army post exchanges. These prices are in deutschmarks quoted at the official export ' rate of 3u cents a mark. There is no othei international value. But j there is a black market value of ! IS to a dollar that some G-l'a use. The bash- black market has disippeared with currency reform, however. No longer is every public park or square a barter mart. Gcrmanys new prosperity is based on these hard economic : sac ts: 1. An Industrial potential ' greater than 1939 despite air raids and dismantling programs. j 2. A lion’s share —onp-third — , of the European recovery pro- , , gram funds. 3. The new deutschmark which , i the western military governments , have pledged to keep sound and ■ stable. 4. A Europe starving for consumer goods — large'y Germany's ( i market before the war.

Mr. Arnold outlined the fo'lowing rules which have the approval of the VA: 1. Write only when necessary The veteran has every right to write !<£■ the VA whenever he has a matter which can best be handled through the mails 2. Write the right VA office.

When the veteran writes the VA he should always in-hide his claim number it he ha>< one. If he writes abou' insurance, he should include his N or V number. If he does not know jther. he should -;lvc his service aortal number 4. Write legibly to get an anewer. I 5. Use checks, ntonev orders or j -aistal notes, never cash.
