Copenhagen, Nov. 12.-The war map
of Germany is attracting a good deal
of attention, but German business
men are worried over the commercial
map as well. Attention has been

ing difficulty of re-establishing Ger-;

Diplomatic breaks with China and
Central American republics, while a
source of amusement on account of
the military unimportance, mean in-
creased dificulities in the uphill fight
to rebuild the foreign trade after the

Iemands have been made that
measures be taken without delay to
bring the German consular and trade
intelligence services up to date, and
that all preparations be made during
the war so that German trades May
have a favorable start in the race to
obtain raw materials the instant peace
