        1924 Febr. 20 - Paris: Schacht reports about a conversation with Young. This one has a good impression of the German jobs. The committee of experts doesn't want any politics from Dtschld. Setting traps. Young's wish is to clear the Ruhr and reintegrate the railways into the German network. He developed a plan for Schacht to finance the German supplies of goods for the period of the moratorium with the help of the monetary bank. Pirelli has estimated the minimum amount for deliveries of goods at 600 million marks. Schacht didn't have a monetary policy. Objections to the project. For the railways, Young developed their transformation into an operating company managed according to purely commercial principles; a controller is to be political and military. Switch off influences. Young also made suggestions about the tactical approach against Frkr. in order to get it to accept the report. He wants to giveSchacht an insight into the main features of the report in 8-10 days. Poincares polit. Situation gets weaker every day after Young. Young kept Franqui's door very clever or better yet door very smart; if he can't get away with a project, he'll back off.31/2 p., Vervielf., Note: Confidential[1927, after Nov. 18]: Aide-memoire of the Reichsverband der Dt.

Kolonialgesellschaft, Gouverneur a. D. Seitz, with regard to the Hilton Young Report, Marx points out that England has introduced a kind of self-government in the form of a council of governors in East Africa and has appointed only Englishmen. The exclusion of the Germans is a violation of the League of Nations Statute. This would also be the case if the fact were true that all Germans there have to report to the authorities from time to time. After an italian. Ztgs.-Meldung should contain the secret English-French colonial agreement:1) England and Frkr. want a possible German or Italian. Demand that the mandate over Cameroon be given to another colonial region in need of power, oppose the desire to design the mandates as a permanent institution, or tie Cameroon definitively to Frkr. in some other way. 2) Mutual control of the American. Penetration policy in Africa. 3) Isolation and monopolization of the black population to the detriment and that of the economy! The interest of the other powers, which will no longer be able to trade directly with the natives in the future. A separate RT debate on this matter would be appropriate. Eh. Signature.21/4 p., copy.
