  • The Devil's Chemists—1952
    The Devil’s Chemists—24 Conspirators of the International Farben Cartel Who Manufacture Wars By Josiah DuBois Like Ambruster’s Treason’s Peace, Josiah DuBois’s The Devil’s Chemists highlights how the I.G. Farben chemical firm manipulated trade relationships to the advantage of the Third Reich. In addition, the book illustrates how corporations, businessmen and politicians beholden unto the firm’s non-German cartel partners assisted that manipulation, as well as the postwar rehabilitation and exoneration of both I.G. and its most important personnel. Those personnel are the primary focus of Josiah Du Bois’s The Devil’s Chemists. In addition, DuBois emphasizes the damage done to America’s international credibility by its postwar preservation of I.G. Farben and other Axis/fascist cartels. One cannot understand the history of the 20th century without understanding the role played in world events of the time by the I.G. Farben company, the chemical cartel that grew out of the German dyestuffs industry. Comprising some of the most important individual companies in the history of industrial capitalism, the firm has dominated the dyestuffs, chemical and pharmaceutical industries before and during World War II. The companies that grew out of I.G.’s official dissolution after the war—Bayer, Hoechst, BASF, and Agfa continued to be decisive in world markets. Among the many products developed by I.G. or its member companies are aspirin, heroin, Novocain, methadone (originally named Dolophine in honor of Adolph Hitler) and Zyklon B (the poison gas used in the extermination centers of World War II.) Both the Ambruster and DuBois texts set forth the international scope and economic impact of the company, its role as the spine of the industrial war-making economy of the Third Reich and the firm’s elevation of Hitler to his position of power.

  • Oil in Germany
    OIL IN GERMANY HENRY LUDMER, University of Toledo, Toledo, Ohio The subject "Oil in Germany" was and is of great importance to us because it was and still is a very essential part of Germany's war potential as well as of her peacetime economy. World War I revealed the importance of oil to military operations. Lord Curzon made the long-remembered statement that the Allies floated to victory on a sea of oil. Marshal Foch added that in war a drop of gasoline is worth a drop of blood. World War II clearly demonstrated the absolute necessity of oil in war. Not only did the want of it, the need of it, breed the force which attempted to obtain it, but it also played a leading part in the strategy of the victorious side. It is smarter to ground planes and put out of commission tanks by destroying their oil depots than to risk more men and machines by fighting them. Therefore all information concerning the natural and synthetic oil of Germany was classified information and hard to get. Some of the data presented in this study could not be checked or rechecked because of lack of information from the Russian sector of Germany. First, the geographic location of Germany's natural and synthetic oil, petroleum refineries, oil centers, firms, etc., will be described. Then an oil estimate will be made and finally the elimination of Germany's production of synthetic gasoline and oil will be discussed. It is beyond the scope and time of this study to describe the various processes (Hydronation, Hydrogenation, Carbonization, Bergius, Fischer-Tropsch, Winkler, and other I.

  • Information to Users
    INFORMATION TO USERS While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this manuscript, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. For example: • Manuscript pages may have indistinct print. In such cases, the best available copy has been filmed. • Manuscripts may not always be complete. In such cases, a note will indicate that it is not possible to obtain missing pages. • Copyrighted material may have been removed from the manuscript. In such cases, a note will indicate the deletion. Oversize materials (e.g., maps, drawings, and charts) are photographed by sectioning the original, beginning at the upper left-hand comer and continuing from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. Each oversize page is also filmed as one exposure and is available, for an additional charge, as a standard 35mm slide or as a 17”x 23” black and white photographic print. Most photographs reproduce acceptably on positive microfilm or microfiche but lack the clarity on xerographic copies made from the microfilm. For an additional charge, 35mm slides of 6”x 9” black and white photographic prints are available for any photographs or illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography. 8703618 Stokes, Raymond George RECOVERY AND RESURGENCE IN THE WEST GERMAN CHEMICAL INDUSTRY: ALLIED POLICY AND THE I.G.
