_Populace Cool. By DAVID M. NICHOL IE 104, by Te Ty News Too. KHARKOV, Feb, 26 (Delayed)— ‘of the most significant feaSappeatice from a brief visit,
x ‘and exploiting program on “the Nazis depended greatly or the: ‘support of their new order » economy. : Kharkov's streets and buildings are filled ‘with: evidence that the Germans planned to rei main permanently. It has long been : known that they hoped to make ; wo this Ukrainian Mr.Nichol capital into the center of what they termed in. offi-
cial documents as “our new eastern ;
colonial possessions.” | There is evidence that ‘the Gerattempted to re-establish those portions of Ukrainian indus{ry and agriculture which could be useful to Nazl purposes. . : The result, it seems, was a spur to shipments of forced labor not only to solve the Reich's shortage ‘but also to stem the rising - number of Ukrainian jobless, a condition which captured German docu‘ments admit was “fraught .with danger to the tranquillity of occu“pled regions and wholly unper-
_ missible, in the rear of combatant
troops.” \ Factory wheels moved, but so ‘slowly as to be almost useless. " Scientific looting which was applied with considerable success in * some other portions of conquered * Europe, apparently collapsed in favor of out-and-out robbery and _ terrorization. “Exploitation” became a matter “of : grabbing everything on which the Germans could lay: their hands.
Discouraged Markets
‘What little trade occurred was centered chiefly in markets which ~ the Nazis, for their part, tried to limit as much as possible as. potential leaks for goods which otherwise might be rounded up for - Germany. . The chief reason for this apparent collapse in the new order seems to be the Nazis’ failure to find ~ Ukrainian nationalism on anything like the scale they had expected and hoped. “The Germans never succeeded in “establishing a civil government in Rharkov, although it was the largest conquered Soviet city, and was generally considered by the Germans as a civilian winter supply base rather than a forward military post. “Ukrainian nationalism,” as fostered by the Nazis, was not unlike other ‘fraudulent civilizations they are trying to impose in conquered © areas. Schooling Was Limited
‘The Ukrainian language was SA in the schools, for example, _ but the term of schooling was to * extend only for four years. German was taught at the!same time. ‘Signs were posted in Ukrainian, ‘but always with the German ver“sion first. i= One of the most interesting reve- _ lations was the story of several _ persons that the Nazis established * three special schools: for child or “spies” These were being trained -gccord- ? ing to the accounts, for special activities behind the Soviet lines. 3. Their ages ranged from 10 to 15. It is not recorded whether these i ; specifically were any success, but oe recent issue of the “Agitators’ 5h = Notebook” spoke of the use of * these youthful agents through the ad “ medium of torturing parents. =
AXIS HINTS ALLIED “PRODUCTION GREATER
. The’ German radio hinted yester-
has outstripped that of the axis. - “In view of the record American ‘figures and the almost incredible total of Russian tanks destroyed,” ‘German commentator said, “must we not ask whether our output has been overtaken by our enemies?”
