Nevertheless, removals are to take place primarily from the metallurgical, chemical and machine194W manufacturing industries which are important to war potential and whether textile machinery can be removed will depend upon how much has to be left to Germany to enable her to maintain the average living standards on the basis agreed to at Potsdam.
