Proposals originated by Henry Morgenthau Jr
(1891-1967), US secretary of the Treasury,
for Germany after World War II, calling for
the elimination of war industries in the Ruhr
and Saar basins and the conversion of Germany
`into a country primarily agricultural and
pastoral in character'. The plan had already
been dropped by the time the Allied leaders
Churchill, Roosevelt, and Stalin met at Yalta
Feb 1945.
