Roosevelt's 1940 appointment of a personal representative / * to the Vatican outraged most Protestant churches. Indeed, an / accounting of the Protestant protests regarding the Holy See appointment reveals several aspects of American religious life at that time. As the United States moved closer to becoming a religiously plurahstic society and shed its Protestant hegemony, mainline Protestant churches sought to maintain leverage by denouncing any ties to the Vatican. Efforts to avert this papal affiliation also stemmed from traditional American anti-Cathohcism. Therefore, the attempt to preserve Protestant influence with anti-Catholic rhetoric against a Vatican envoy demonstrates how mainline churches want- ed to sway governmental pohcy, even in the area of foreign affairs. Protestant churches asserted that they were defending the principle of the separation of church and state. But an inspection of their protests against the Vatican appointment illustrates that they were also concerned about how such repre- sentation would affect their place in U.S. society and proves that they still dis- trusted Catholicism. In short, although they cloaked their arguments in the guise of defending the separation of church and state, the Vatican appoint- ment became a forum in which Protestant denominations displayed their anxiety about the development of religious pluralism in America, voiced tra- ditional anti-Catholicism, and ultimately influenced diplomatic policy. -

SURVEY of CURRENT BUSINESS January 1942
SURVEY OF JANUARY 1942 STATES DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE OF FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC COMMERCE Special Announcement of Publishing Policy The Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce announces a sim plified publishing program for the duration of the war. The Reference Services, special reports, and cooperative studies which have been pub-, lished separately for industries or for groups interested in special projects will be consolidated into three periodicals, each of which is designed to, serve a particular function. The Survey of Current Business will continue to provide economic and statistical information to the business and professional community. Publishable foreign trade information will be concentrated jn ,Forei~ Commerce Weekly. Industry and business will find in the pages of Domestic Commerce those commercial reports which can be made public, The contents of the Bureau periodicals may be abridged in botli e:xtdnt and variety. In not all instances will information heretofore available be published. In the present issue of the Survey, for example, ~lJ foreigri trade statistics and certain other statistical data which are of particular military significance have been discontinued. Moreover, because a large proportion of the Bureau personnel is engaged in providing necessary information for war agencies, it will be impossible to draw as completely upon the staff's specialized knowledge. On the other hand, it is hoped that an increasing flow of information helpful to the efficient functioning of business during the war economy will be derived from the fact-finding, fact-analyzing activities of the Bureau for the war agencies. Subscribers should expect changes in format and paper, as the publications will cooperate with the Government Printing ()ffice in the most efficient and economical use of its equipment and paper stocks. -

Was Armament Minister Albert Speer Really Responsible for the German
Was armament minister Albert Speer really responsible for the German “armament miracle” during World War II? New doubts arising from the annual audits of the German aircraft producers. Jonas Scherner University of Mannheim Jochen Streb University of Hohenheim Abstract Armament minister Albert Speer is usually credited with causing the upswing in German armament production after 1941. Exploring the annual audit reports of the Deutsche Revisions- und Treuhand AG for six different firms, we question this view by showing that in the German aircraft industry the crucial political changes already occurred before World War II. The government decided in 1938 that aircraft producers had to concentrate on a few different types, and in 1937 cost-plus contracts were replaced with fixed price contracts. What followed was not a sudden production miracle but a continuous development which was fuelled by learning-by-doing and by the ongoing growth of the capital endowment. Preliminary version. Please do not quote. Comments are welcome. 1 The German armament miracle In December 1941 the Russian army stopped the German Wehrmacht near Moscow. That along with the United States’ entry into World War II brought the National Socialists’ strategy to fight so-called Blitzkriege, which could be waged with a comparatively low number of soldiers and arms, to a sudden end.1 Now confronted with the prospect of a long-lasting war against the Unites States and Soviet Russia, the German military planners acknowledged that they had to increase their armament production considerably. This insight was frankly made public by the economic journal Deutscher Volkswirt (1942, p. -

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 7 k - b l + - ABSTRACT, Slessor, Douglas, Spaight etal justified the Munich Agreement as providing a 'breathing space' to accelerate British rearmament. Whilst Chamberlain realised Britain's military weakness, feared a German 'knock-out blow', and underestimated the Czech Army^ His prime motive was to prevent, not postpone, a war which he abhorred. Nevertheless he realised the need to accelerate defensive measures such as fighter aircraft, anti-aircraft guns and civil defence. A n x ie tie s th a t Germany would invade Holland, s e iz in g strategic airfields and the Channel Parts, over ruled the policy of 'limited Liability'. French pressure, and Lord Halifax's support enabled Hore-Belisha to raise equipment for an enlarged field force. Chamberlain opposed conscription for fear of alienating the trade unions; whilst he believed a Ministry of Supply would lose industrialists' co-operation with rearmament and undermine economic recovery.
