SEARCH FOR ART SEIZffiBY NAZIS Masterpieces Valued At Mil lions Are Stolen Hitler, Goering Involved. Morgenthau Tells New Tax Plan? By Joan Younger United Press Correspondent New York (U.R) A gigantic treasure hunt to ferret out hun dreds of millions of dollars' worth of masterpieces stolen by the Germans from the con quered peoples must be con ducted as part of postwar recon struction, an art expert said here today. ' M. Georges - Wlldenstein of Paris and .New York said that many of the pictures would be easily traceable to high Nazi officials, but that others, sold at auctions, would have to be hunt ed down and rightful ownership legalized. He said that the Rothschild family alone have had almost $100,000,000 worth of art ob jects seized by the Nazis. Hitler, he said, fancied him self as an art connoisseur and sent out agents to every' con quered country to confiscate paintings for his private collec tion and for the Adolf Hitler Memorial Museum in his home town of Linz. Goering, he said, also had a huge collection of art mostly nudes. One curious exception. Wilderstein Said, was a religi ous masterpiece by Jan and Hu bert Van Eyck, "The Adoration of the Lamb," which Goerring had snatched away from the Ghent Cathedral in Belgium. Wildenstein warned that un less careful plans were laid- to untangle problems of ownership, the task of restoring the art works would be almost lnsur mountable. 'The value of art as a 'mov able asset' will mean that when the Nazi rats begin to leave their sinking ship they will try to take their loot with them," he added. The expert suggested that post-war decrees could declare a moratorium on all art transac tions and. forbid the removal of all art works until the tangle was straightened out. 'Next, he said, "proof of ownership before 1936 should be demanded of all Germans and Italians and even neutrals In Europe possessing art objects of value. 70S bttur ml end bttter prtow try tb oiKnai oroewy.
