Prints New Currency WASHINGTON. Dec. 8 .4 The United States, determined not to let lack of an agreement with Rus sia worsen Inflationary trends In Germany and Korea, has printed new currency for use in the Amer ican zones of both those occupied countries. While the decision for coping with black market money troubles confronting American military gov ernment authorities on both sides of the world was reached weeks ago, it was kept a top secret be cause of the big four foreign min isters conference in London. There was no public announce ment, but government authorities privately confirmed the action. The London conference, which opened November 25, has made no perceptible progress toward either of its twin objectives peace treaties for Germany and Austria. American efforts to obtain Rus sian agreement on a unified gov ernment for Korea likewise have met with one failure after another. In the case of Germany, a new currency for the U. S. occupation zone would make It possible to out law large quantities of money Rus sia printed from plates supplied by this country in 1944.
