From the Paper:

"The Soviet Union, as to be anticipated, wanted to rebuild their near-destroyed economy using German industry. The United States feared it would have to pay the whole cost of transformation Germany, which in turn would help rebuild the Soviet Union. So, after all the discussions had ended, conciliation was reached and Germany was to be partitioned into four occupied zones. Britain, France and the United States would occupy parts of western Germany while the Soviet Union would occupy East Germany."
