However. department experts said the change had no real bearing on German-American Trade, both be- cause Schacht has been only a. figurehead for a. long timeand be- cause Germany already has been doing everything it tail trade with the Unit-ed States.

They predicted that. despite the efforts of diminish purchases from the United States. such ne- cessities as cotton. petroleum. oop- por, lead and phosphates would continue to be bought here be- cause Germany needs them badly.
