tl S. ReiiVainsCool ! Toward Germany
WASHINGTON, Dec. 31.—(UP)— A high administration official said today that the United States would remain cool, diplomatically, toward Get many until present Nazi policies are tempered and discriminations against American trade and commerce ended. Tne statement made in Berlin yesterday by the, government-controlled DNB new agency, saying “hope of improvement in German-United States relations is futile in view of the United States reaction to Germany’s protest against the speech of Secretary Ickes,” was not regarded as an official reply. However, it was believed that the DNB statement was an accurate reflection of Germany’s attitude, and that the result would be a diplomatic stalemate with neither country receding from its position.
