A special department of the Council has been set up dealing with shipments of American and Latin American products to Germany and a list of firms engaging in this practice will be released soon, Dr. Tenenbaum added
Dr. Tenenbaum also announced that the Council was investigating, with a view to seeking Federal prosecution, several shipments of German merchandise which had entered this country via neutral ports, where they had been repacked and relabeled before being forwarded to the United States.
