"As long as the trading with the enemy art is n force It remains the duty of all persons having the custo dy or control of enemy property in this country to make report thereof to the alien property custodian.

In these cases. In order o liquidate we have been compelled to sell property of various kinds. "Second The enemy-owned shares of stock or other intent in American corporations, where the enemy hold ing Is large enough to Influence or control the management of American Industrial and commercial Interests. It Is perfectly clear that In granting the power of sale congress Intended that the enemy interests In such cor poratlon should be placed in Ameri can hands for fair value, after public sale tereof. At the time the armis tice was signed, a" large number of such properties were ready to be sold by the alien property custodian, and these sales will be proceeded with.
