HUGE RUHR MERGER is expected to link two former members of German steel trust dismantled in 1948. August Thyssen-Hütte (sales: $430 million) has asked permission from European Coal and Steel Community to buy Phoenix Rheinrohr (sales: $390 million). Authority will probably approve.

...list had no glaring omissions, with the possible exception of Field Marshal Alfred Kesselring and Industrialist Fritz von Thyssen. Industrialist Gustav Krupp von Bohlen was there, and so were Militarists Keitel, Jodl, Raeder and Doenitz. There were Financiers Funk and Schacht, ex-Foreign Ministers von Neurath and von Ribbentrop and the cloak-&-dagger diplomat, Franz von Papen; there were names once famous in the Nazi hierarchy -Hess and Streicher, Ley and Rosenberg, and Gauleiter Seyss-Inquart (Netherlands) and von Schirach (Austria).
