Nazis Are Barred From
Business by Army Chiefs

FRANKFURT, GERMANY. - United States army headquarters recently ordered active Nazis and militarists who had gained positions of prominence and influence in their communities removed from private businesses, professions or occupations.

Heretofore, military government authorities have directed their main attention to ousting Nazis from governmental and quasi-public positions. In contrast, the new order is designed to denazify every phase of German life.

The directive permits the issuance of temporary revocable licenses to physicians and others engaged in such activities "as are necessary for the health, safety, or well being of their community."
