the signing of the armistice does not

-The United States and Germany."
said Mr. Palmer, "are still at war.
and the trading with the enemyact
is still in force. The alen property

perform the duties which that act
lays upon him. and will carry out the
evident Intent of the congress with
relation to enemy property until final
peace shall come.
"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.
Speaking generally, only two classes
of property have been or will be sold
These are:
"First The enemy interests in
partnerships, branches ox agencies to
which licenses to do business have
been refused, or to which licenses
ave been granted for the purpose of
liquidation. 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.
"Investments of individual German
subjects, either In stocks, bonds.
mortgages, real estate or other prop
erty In America, will not be sold ex
cept when they fall within the two
classes herein mentioned."
