"we have never witnessed such
difference in war require
ments as registered between
October and December, 1944."
"The only thing we make out
of all these contraditions," it
said, "is that somebody has been
fooling somebody. Things
couldn't be almost perfect in
October and in ruins in Decem
ber unless somebody was lying."
Meanwhile the American Fed

RITZY HOTEL OP
ST. LOUIS TALKS
St. Louis, Dec. 14 U.R)
Helmuth C. Setz, 53-year-old St.
Louis millionaire, who for six
years has not crossed the thres
hold of his room in the ritzy
Chase hotel, explained his sell
imprisonment today as a desire
to live . apart from the world
"and think and study and read."
A reporter who interviewed
the gray, pre-maturely aged re
cluse in the seclusion of his room
high above the traffic on St
Louis' west side, last night be
came the first stranger to speak
to Setz since he gathered his
books and papers and registered
at the hotel on May 16, 1939.
"It's really difficult to give
concise reason for my withdraw'
al from society," said the son
of a pioneer St. Louis lead mine
chemist who holds a degree in
chemistry from the University
of California.
'The reason," he added, "is
not for any fear of the world
or dislike, for people."
His brother, Carl F. Setz,
with whom he shared the $2,
800,000 estate of their late fath
er, explained that Helmuth led
a normal, active life while op
erating his mining companies n
Colorado before his seclusion
here.
