The article focuses on the book "The Hidden Weapon," by David L. Gordon and Royden Dangerfield. A valuable and interesting account of the varied aspects of economic warfare in World War II written by two men who served successively as chief of the Blockade, Division of the Foreign Economic Administration. It deals not only with methods of enforcing the long-distance blockade of the Axis powers, but also with such matters as preclusive- buying of useful materials in neutral markets, the black lists, financial controls and the safe-haven program, the purpose of which was to thwart the Nazis' efforts to salt down their loot in neutral countries.
