I will answer the gentleman without undertaking to name specific cases. though I think they could be named. Here is a certain industry owned 10 per cent. or 20 per cent. or 30 per cent by naturalized American citizens. with 60 or 70 or 80 per cent owned by German citizens. all of the capital in the first instance laving been practically German. That minority interest mnight. and in many instances probably would. be in a position to bid most for the property. knowing both its value and also being practically bidding for tile interests that were there in the first instance. The purchaser would be teclnically an American citizen. and yet his money come from and his heart be in Germany.
