' ASKS END j* (ContiWß*a From I*M*e One) since he issued a proclamation Dec. 31, 1946, declaring hostilities at an end, “German citizens are still subject to certain disabilities particularly with respect to suiss in United States courts.” The president also felt thAt ending the state of war would have 1 a helpful psychological effect. He said it was unfortunate that Soviet Russia has "actively prevented the growth of a representative democratic government in a unified Germany and has thus made impossible for the time being the arrangement of a final peace settlement.” ' As an alternative he proposed the adoption of a congressional resolution, to be followed by a presidential proclamation, bringing an end to the state of war which has existed since Dec. 11, 1941. The only safeguard Mr. Truman asked was a provision guaranteeing that termination of the war would not change the authority to seize, under the trading with the enemy act, German property owned in this country flrior to Dec. 31, 1946. The proceeds from such seizures are used to pay claims arising from the war under the war claims act of 1948. ( \ \ ( Mr. Truman said most of this German property already has been identified and seized. He said there still is some property believed to be cloaked or hidden and not yet discovered and some still under examination or subject to legal proceedings. \ I ' Since |here is some doubt that the seizure powers can be exercised after the termination of the state of war without special new tion, the president asked that the proviso be included in the congressional resolution. p
